Posts from Your favorite and least favorite monsters in Heroes.

Don't insult the creatures; they are all charming in their own way. Gargoyles are cool (they look like statues from a tomb). Zombies are also not bad; after all, if someone rots for a couple of weeks like they do, they will also smell and look like them (I wouldn't envy them). And Ents are quite nice; our developers made them very original.

It's simple. Everyone actually preferred the previous model. They just saw a similar model in some other game. Because of this, our developers had to redo the giant Ents, giving them mantis-like legs.

I agree. The developers still put effort into creating the zombies and gargoyles. But it would have been better to leave the Ent model from the beta version, as the attempt to make them original, in my opinion, failed. I personally play with a mod that uses the Ents from the beta.

Well, regarding the creation of these units, everything is great. And the originality of the Ents is also satisfactory.

Emerald dragons don't look very good – they're just a different shade of green. I play with a mod that replaces emerald dragons with golden ones!

Oh, thank you very much, I will definitely try everything that's there.

I installed the mod a long time ago, where instead of regular gargoyles, black imps run around the battlefield – their stats are the same. Otherwise, it’s simply impossible (they take half an hour to move) – witches in melee combat, gargoyles, and goblins just annoy me!:smile35:

I'll try to highlight my favorite and least favorite unit in each of the factions. Griffin Empire. I like the crossbowmen and alternative archers; deadly strike or full-power shots?:confused: I don't like the combat griffins. The skill is silly, and they are heavy with low speed. Inferno. I like the Demonesses; chain strike is very good. I don't like the Fire Demons; their explosion is useless. Sylvan. I like the Master Archers and Elven Snipers; a couple of shots with piercing arrows or full damage against shattered armor. :confused: I don't like the Druids and everything related to them. :mad: Necropolis. I like the Vampire Lords, Princes, and everything related to them. Even the regular ones; they run so beautifully...;) I don't like Zombies, absolutely any of them. Magic. I like the Rajahs and Kshatria Rakshasa. I don't like the Gargoyles... I just don't understand how to play with them...:mad: Dark Elves. I like the Assassins, strangely enough. Their melee attack is very cool.;) I don't like the others; I can't pick out the worst, but if you like the first level, there's nothing to say about the rest. Dwarves. I like only the Erls. When they fly in, if you're lucky and they attack in a chain...:smile15: It's them that attack in a chain in the latest expansion, although in the "dwarven" ones, the Jarls attacked like that. I don't like the Berserkers and Arkat Warriors. The argument is simple: no matter how many you take, it's useless. They get hit, and I practically don't use them in battles. Orcs. I like the Ogres with swords. And if you level them up and they hit twice? I don't like the Wyverns; the damage distribution is often completely unnecessary.

In Heroes of Might and Magic I, I like all the units; they are designed in a fairy-tale atmosphere, and each unit is memorable (especially since there aren't that many of them). In Heroes of Might and Magic II, I like the liches, vampires, dragons, and human units (except for the peasants). In Heroes of Might and Magic III, the Barbarians are less appealing – it's plagiarism upon plagiarism, and they're in gray colors. The Castle and Inferno factions are amazing; there are no words to describe them. The gothic style in Heroes is something special. A fairy-tale atmosphere is essential for the game because it's one of the reasons why everyone loves Heroes. But here, it feels like NWC hired a priest as the head of the art department. And the same goes for the Swamp faction. In Heroes of Might and Magic IV, the dragons are especially good, particularly the magic dragon (at least here, it looks like a dragon and not like a barrel with butterfly wings, as in Heroes III). Who said that the scariest monsters are humans? In Heroes IV, the scariest monsters are the heroes, but they are also the most interesting. Especially the sorceresses in wigs. In Heroes of Might and Magic V, the Orcs, Humans, and Inferno factions look solid. The Vampires and Dragons are also great.

There aren't any creatures I dislike based on their stats, as I can defeat them all, but there are some I dislike based on their appearance. Here are a few:
For Necromancers, only the dragon is unappealing, while the rest look good, especially the Lich.
I like all the creatures of the Inferno faction, especially the Demoness.
For the Elves, I don't like the Hydras. They seem boring... But I really like their Witches.
For the Elven Lords, I don't like the Ents. They are too weak for what is supposed to be one of the strongest creatures of the Elves. I do like the Unicorns.
For the Empire, I don't like the Griffon, the Arbalester, and the Elite Guard. Their faces look like they were put together from different pieces, but I do like the Archangels.
For the Wizards, I don't like the Gargoyles. They are slow and boring. I do like the Titans.
For the Dwarves, I don't like almost all of them: levels 1, 2, 4, and 5. I only like the Thane and the Earth Elemental/Earth Elemental.
For the Orcs, I don't like the Goblins, who are always cowards, and the Free Cyclops when they attack their own. I do like the Chieftains and the Executioners.

I downloaded a mod that turns the Necropolis's Knights into Death Knights and transforms the undead into neutral creatures. And these undead are something else! They're all fiery, they shoot, and when they shoot, they inflict blindness. And they have as much health as the Knights. I respect them and I'm a little afraid of them).

There are some monsters I don't like, but if you don't pay attention to the stats, then:
:smile18: 1. Gargoyles are useless and very weak, only good for suppressing ranged units. Maybe someone can explain why the alt-upgrade ability that increases vulnerability to elements is beneficial?
2. Zombies are disgusting, useless, and unnecessary. It's better to take two types of skeletons.
3. I don't like Hydras; they are slow and don't help much.
4. Djinns are also weak.
5. I didn't like Griffins before, but the combat update fixed that.
:smile41: 6. Ents somehow annoy me; I don't really like them.
7. I don't like Goblins.
8. Nightmares are strong, but I don't take them often; I'd rather have two types of Succubi or Cave Crawlers.
9. Minotaurs also didn't win me over.
10. Earth Elementals are useless logs.
11. Bone Dragons are extremely weak. It's better to have one Undead; at least it's beautiful.
12. And how can you like the most terrible ones – Mummies? It's ridiculous! They could have added Nagas, Ifrits, or Rocs, or something else...
13. I didn't like Dancers before. The new ones are much stronger than the old ones.
:smile54: And there are many that I REALLY like. I like their appearance and properties, and I always take them:
1. Dryads.
2. Wind Dancers.
3. Forest Archers.
4. High Druids.
5. Emerald Dragons.
6. Archers.
7. Halberdiers.
8. Paladins.
9. Archangels.
10. Bear Riders (all).
11. Earls and Jarls.
12. Arcata Dragons.
13. Succubi (all are good, little devils).
14. Firehounds.
15. Cave Lords.
16. Skeletons of all kinds.
17. Vampire Princes.
18. Archmages.
19. Rakshasas are super.
20. And Titans and Thunderbirds.
21. Furies and Megeras.
22. Lizard Riders (all).
23. Shadow Lords.
24. Black and Red Dragons (I like the latter more).
25. Centaurs.
26. Chieftains.
27. Paoka.
All the others are not worthy of either love or hate:o

:mad: I didn't like this mod! Especially the Dark Knights – emo pink idiots. They could have made them purple or brown, and the Death Knights white, like Liches, or the same as the Black Knights, but with red swords and details.

Undeads are awesome! And in general, they should have made them like in Disciples – without a head. It could have been summoned with the Night Terror spell, remember?:smile54:

And whose skirt is prettier – the regular Angel or the Lich? :-)))

Among the dwarves, I like the Erls – they are cool guys; among the dark elves, I like the minotaurs and shadow lords; among the humans, I like the inquisitors; among the high elves, I like the elven archers and high druids; and among the Inferno, I like the cave demons.
That's probably all the monsters I like in Heroes 5.

The Sylvan faction completely threw me off balance. Especially the deer skull as a headdress (probably to make it easier to camouflage), and the Ents (they are much better with a mod). And the Elementals seem to be the most successful of all the factions. The rest don't stand out in any way.

I like all the creatures, and I’d like to see even more.
