Posts from Queen – “The King’s Sunset” [Campaign 1, Mission 5]

If I remember correctly (it's been a while since I played this mission), the sawmill is located east of the castle. I don't remember the exact location of the obelisks. There are 3 of them in total. One is somewhere in the south, not far from the bridge. Another is somewhere in the northeast. The third is somewhere in the middle. You need to find them all. Then it will be clear where the Tear is. It can be in different places.

AAAAthank you...)))))you helped me find this guy... I've been looking for him for 2 months now...

It's quite easy to find a Tear with just one obelisk, but only in a specific case – if the Tear is near something unique. The first time, I had to open all the obelisks. But the second time, I opened the second obelisk only because I was passing by – the first obelisk gave me a piece of the map with a portal, and the Tear was found on the second attempt. But you need to be careful with Godrick's development. I laid a good foundation for him, but I didn't fully develop him, remembering that you have to fight against Necropolis initially in poor conditions – he's in the city, and you have to defeat two armies.
If you rush through here, you won't even have time to fully develop Isabel and you won't even explore the map (I've already forgotten if there's a second town).

Arjien, you'll also have to fight with Isabel. But a fully upgraded Godrick helped me a lot in the 6th campaign. And in the 2nd mission of the 3rd campaign, Markel was no match for Godrick. Although, I struggled a lot before I finally defeated that monster in the 3rd campaign.

In this mission, after Isabel took the castle and captured the nearby mines, she defended the castle and trained young soldiers. After each battle, she ran to the flag and back. And Godrick cleared everything on the surface and underground and visited all the upgrade locations. Both of them reached their maximum level. Only Isabel didn't run to the upgrade locations.

Yeah... No matter what you do, it's always a problem. At least Godric can be leveled up later. I don't really want to put too much effort into Markel – the conditions are very unfavorable.

Arjien, a well-leveled Godric was a great help to me in the 2nd mission of the 3rd campaign, allowing me to defeat the enemies landing on the island. And in the 5th mission, I managed to defeat him, albeit with some difficulty.

I think we had different difficulty levels. Because I lacked experience, I played on the easiest setting, and that was enough to complete all of Markel's missions. As for Isabel and Godric, they were poorly leveled up because I started playing Heroes 5 directly with the campaign, and I didn't even know about the forum or the supplementary materials. Also, the first campaign was mostly spent getting used to the game – before that, I had only played Heroes 4.

Godrick only has a large second army on the Hero difficulty. Even on Veteran, he can be easily defeated. I also started playing Heroes with the campaign. Before that, I hadn't played any other Heroes games. I just completed all the campaigns on Warrior first, and then I started playing on Hero. Even during my first playthrough, I read on the forum that Godrick is a participant in the final battle. So, in this mission, I tried to level him up. On Warrior, I didn't level Godrick up to level 24 because the neutral creatures ran out, and the heroes were fleeing the battlefield. I could have hunted the neutral creatures that appear on certain weeks, but I got tired of it. On Hero, Godrick leveled up before the neutral creatures ran out. After that, I only focused on clearing out the resource locations. Soon, I will be playing this mission in version 3.0 (I'm currently playing version 4). There may also be problems with leveling up Godrick if I can't level up Isabella's mentoring skill. In this version, on Hero difficulty, the enemies flee the battlefield, while on easier levels, they fight to the last.

WHEN PLAYING THIS MISSION IN VERSION 3.0, IT IS NOT ALLOWED TO CAPTURE THE DUNGEON BEFORE THE CASTLE!!!

Version 3.0 has the same bug as version 1.6. If the enemy is heavily scripted to capture a specific castle, they may not come. In my case, the demons didn't arrive. I installed the patch for version 1.6 and started the mission again. The result was the same. The patch author said that it cannot help in 3.0 because the hero does not enter the castle immediately after capturing it. He also said that if you capture the castle first and then free Isabelle, the demons should come without the patch in any version. This patch in version 3.0 can only help you get Biara in C5M1.

I personally immediately freed Isabel and captured the castle, where I imprisoned Godric and completed the entire game with Isabel; everything worked out fine. In the end, after finding the tear and repelling all the attacks from Inferno, I simply sent Godric for reinforcements, having previously defeated the gate guards with Isabel's help. After that, there were no more problems with Godric; I leveled him up in the following missions, and everything was fine. :D

White Wolf, which version did you play? I'm talking about version 3.0. In version 1.5, I also started without any problems by freeing Isabel. However, in 3.0, I waited for the demons for 4 weeks twice. They didn't come. Naturally, the quests to find the Tear of Ash and send Godric for help didn't appear.

As in 1.5, I decided to level up Godric significantly. Isabel trains knights in her name in the castle. I like them more than paladins. But that's a matter of taste. Godric clears the surrounding areas.

It's unlikely that I'll be able to level up Godric to level 24. In 3.0, enemies flee the battlefield like rabbits. Even Agrael ran away quickly. Only Daleb fought to the last. But she was level 1. Therefore, Isabel easily defeated her.

It was a waste to take chests with money at the beginning of the mission to build the castle faster. In 3.0, you can build the castle without rushing, without hiring troops. The starting army is enough to make any demon flee on the hero. Therefore, there are practically no losses.

I have the Gold Edition version of the game 1.6 :smile25:

Someone wrote earlier that the tear is always in different places. That's not true; it's always here: http://www.lki.ru/Guides/26/5346/homm0063s.jpg

I know at least 3 places where the Tear might be:
1. Near the Sanctuary.
2. Near the portal in the middle of the map.
3. South of the outpost. To the left of the road is the Tear, and to the right is a field of sunflowers.

Guys, I'm already fed up (sorry) with playing this mission. I have the official version and everything. I don't use any patches. So, I started having problems right from the first time – Godric left, but no help came. I thought I had killed too many, okay, never mind. I started again. And now there's a different problem: no one attacks me at all. I find that damn Tear of Ash, but now this Godric doesn't even want to leave. AAAAAAAARGH! :smile15: I've already tried it 10-12 times – several evenings wasted. I tried playing the previous mission and then this one. No effect. What should I do? :smile45:
