Posts from Warlock – “Raelag’s Offer” [Campaign 4, Mission 5]

Hello, dear forum members!

1. Problem: difficulty finding the right place on the map.
2. Patch: 1.1 official Russian version
3. Part of the game: The Offering of Railegh, mission 5 of the Necromancer.

For those who need a reminder: Railegh, who united the Dark Elf Clans, one morning looks at himself in a fiery mirror to remember who he was before. And then he sees his native Shio and the demon lord giving instructions to another hero to find and capture the widow Isabelle. And then Railegh realizes that the bad demons want to harm his beloved, and, like a true knight, he rushes to Shio on his faithful dinosaur. Taking the shortest path through the labyrinth, he reaches the borders of the demon lands. Task: find a certain passage through the demon lands. As a result, the entire map is revealed, all the paths and roads of the underworld and the overworld are traversed. The passage is nowhere to be found. In the patch fixes, it says: "The Offering of Railegh": the map script has been fixed, the textures near the Inferno military outpost have been fixed. Yeah, of course, there is such an outpost at the very bottom of the overworld map, the outpost is successfully passed, and along the path we reach the edge of the map. What to do next? Where to jump, leap, and go to complete the mission? Possible reasons: the patch does not fix this place on the map sufficiently. Thank you very much to everyone who responds, from a humble fan of Heroes of Might and Magic.

Just follow the roads above ground, don't capture cities, avoid posts with huge armies, and most importantly, the script only works if both heroes are present at the final destination.

I sincerely thank you, Hedgehog in the Fog!

Awful mission! After the clash with the hero, my huge army was reduced so much... And then they kept coming at me. Damn, I'm getting tired, but I'll finish this mission today!

Heh, I didn't read that both heroes needed to be brought to the outpost; when I went underground with Raiglag and jumped over the outpost via portal, naturally the script didn't trigger. I kept going and started cutting through castles, thinking that was necessary. After the second castle, I had 60 assassins left. Then I decided to restart the map, but scout it a bit more for my future walkthrough. In the end, I killed two more castles and a couple of hero garrisons, and finally read that both heroes must be driven to the pass. Once I brought them, I had to fight through the outpost since the second hero doesn't have a portal. Then I killed the main infernal and completed the mission. My army before the outpost consisted of 94 assassins, 5 non-upgraded furies, 14 minotaurs, 3 hydras, 2 mistresses, and 3 twilight dragons. I killed everyone without any problems. So the mission is elementary; for the Dungeon, troops aren't the main thing.
P.S. The most annoying part is that they never gave the hero luck throughout the entire campaign.

P.S. The most frustrating thing for me throughout the entire campaign was that they never gave the hero any luck.

Hehe, when I couldn't complete the 3rd mission because my hero wasn't leveled up enough (and also lacked luck), I started the campaign over, and on the very first level, I got luck!

I was consistently lucky. It helped a lot in missions...
By the way, it's true that the strength of the Dungeon's army isn't its main advantage. I remember easily dealing with superior enemy forces. Dark Elves are awesome :)

guys... help...
there are patches too... and two idiots on horses have already passed through the bottom of the map, past the gates... and it tells me that the tasks have been completed... but then the mission is lost...
where did I mess up????

did isabelle and marcel appear?

someone appears in the corner... it seems like a Necromancer and some kind of demon...
at first, it writes that the tasks have been completed... then, suddenly, the mission is over...
I can't even defeat the demon hero... his demons drain all the mana...

So, you need to defeat the demon, and then the mission will be completed. And you can defeat him without using mana, just with your own army.

well, it says there that you just need to find the path...
and I can only defeat him if I throw the computer out the window...
he has 2 demons...about 170 archdevils...and all the others...like fleas on an old dog...:eek: :confused:

Damn, the same story as with the Ghoul... I wasted a lot of time, I should have recruited local heroes right away. Well, time for a restart.

Maybe your heroes aren't leveled up enough? I maxed out this pair in every mission, and in the last mission, I mainly fought using magic. Two or three Meteor Shower spells, and they were all dead. The particularly tough ones got hit with Implosion. By the end of the mission, they were already level 30. The demon at the end only managed to attack twice. Opening the gates was difficult, as the drainers completely stole the magic, but they gave a lot of experience for it, they didn't hold back. I initially jumped over the gates and then bought artifacts in the cart (southwest of the map) that increased initiative, and it became much easier to fight the drainers. And in the very first battle, I won through trickery: I lured their strongest hero, Shade, out (taking all her troops) and led her to the gates as bait (while Raeleth was supposedly busy destroying the city in the northwest), and then I started running away from him towards the starting point of the mission. Raeleth ran very far in one turn and caught up with him before he could kill Shade. In general, if you don't do this, it will be much harder to play later. I had to replay once because if you don't take him out right away, he'll gather troops from three cities and chase you around the map, and it will be problematic to get Shade to the lower gates. Take out the scoundrel while he's young!

and here I am again. I haven't played Heroes for over a month, but the day before yesterday, I tried to replay this mission. It was a disaster:smile16:. I drank some beer:smile10: and barely managed to restrain myself from physically attacking the computer. I was tempted to enter a cheat code... but I resisted that temptation. I'll try to defeat the tough guy at the beginning.
