Posts from Which monster do you like the most in Heroes 5 at level 7?

green dragons die quickly

Their main task from the very first turn is to eliminate the most dangerous stacks of the enemy, so they don't need to be durable. Their initial stats are sufficient.

Too bad cyclops weren't in the voting:(

Cyclops, yes, they are evil. I like the free ones, although they might harm our own units, but if they attack enemies... the damage will be significant – Krag won't be disappointed :)

Each has its own advantages and disadvantages:
Angel: consistent damage, resurrection, flight:smile20: They don't look very combat-ready:smile48:, although I wouldn't say they're ugly.
Devil: summoning demons, teleportation,:smile20: appearance, one of the most expensive (upgrades):smile48:.
Green Dragon: appearance (especially from the Ubisoft models), acid breath, flight:smile20:, they die quickly:smile48:.
Black Dragon: power, fire breath, enemy spells don't affect them, flight:smile20:, appearance, positive spells don't affect them, the most expensive:smile48:.
Titan: appearance and graphics of all actions, shooting,:smile20:, they die quickly, low ranged damage, low speed:smile48:.
Purple Dragon: the cheapest, there are many of them, undead:smile20:, too weak (units have fewer "hit points" than ents):smile48:.
Blue Dragon: the strongest armor, fire shield, the most "hit points":smile20:, the lowest speed and initiative:smile48:.
Cyclops: strong, attacks multiple squares (minimum 2), bloodlust:smile20:, low speed and initiative, hits its own units (kills them instantly):smile48:, I feel bad for the goblins:D.

Archangels and Titans. Titans are better because of their ranged attack, Archangels are better because of resurrection.
But the role of a 7th-level creature in Heroes V is less important than in Heroes III.

But the role of a 7th-level creature in Heroes V is less important than in the third game.

O.o Really, less important... I don't want to list a huge number of examples, so I'll write the first one that comes to mind.
Cyclops - devastating strike, can hit 4 stacks of enemies, leaving only half of the troops in each (not always, but in most cases)... And after that, their role is small?

O.o That's quite a statement... I don't want to list a huge number of examples, so I'll just mention the first one that comes to mind.
Cyclops - devastating attack, can hit 4 stacks of enemies, leaving only half of the troops (not always, but in most cases)... And after that, their role is small?

I won't say anything about Cyclops, as I haven't played against them yet.
But I'll give you an example: put 80 Royal Elves in tier 3 against 10 Titans.
And in tier 5, put 80 Master Archers against the same 10 Titans. And you will see
the difference.

And in Heroes 5, put 80 archers against the same 10 titans. And you'll see the difference.

Archers are the strongest tier 3 unit. It's not quite fair to compare them like that. Take warmongers or minotaurs – let's see how they fare against titans.

why not compare them: level 3 versus level 7???:confused:

You're not taking their quality into account... let's compare red dragons and your archers? Ugh, dragons will crush them instantly!

there might be different opinions here... IMHO: the power of a 7th-level unit in Heroes of Might and Magic V is still much less compared to Heroes of Might and Magic III.

I like Seraphims the most. *_*

In my opinion, the most powerful one is the fire dragon, the one that the dwarves have in their castle.

there might be different opinions... IMHO: the power of a 7th-level unit in Heroes 5 is still much less compared to Heroes 3.

Is this just a principle? I don't think so; present your arguments... I forgot about the topic; Nazg has already expressed most of my thoughts...

there might be different options... IMHO: the power of a 7th-level creature in the 5th game is still much less compared to the 3rd game.

How did you compare them? Is there some universal unit of measurement for the strength of creatures across different games? :rolleyes: I'm not sure. Even if we assume that's the case, it's actually a good thing; the 7th level in the 5th game doesn't represent anything supernatural (although, in my opinion, the situation is similar in the 3rd game), and someone with 2-3 more dragons might not necessarily win.

He probably meant the stats of the monsters. Maybe it's just like that...
Titans in Heroes of Might and Magic III had 300 HP, but in Heroes of Might and Magic V they have 190. Angels and Black Dragons also became weaker...
But in Heroes of Might and Magic V, level 6 creatures are stronger. Ents, Wyverns... they have 170-180 HP, while in Heroes of Might and Magic III, Dark Knights had 120 (the best HP stat for level 6 creatures).

Regarding the topic:
I always choose based on my preference, not on strength. I like Angels and Titans at level 7.
