I can show you how these units can cover and take the hit for others)))
If there's a tactic, that's good; if not, it's not fatal. In the first turn, few units can cross the entire field, so a late first turn for the Ents isn't critical. In the worst case, you can use Dryads and Dancers as blockers until the Ents take their desired position).

As for the Elves, maybe we overdid it, or maybe not; I think they turned out to be good Elves.
P.S.: I agree – the units are both beautiful and strong.

against Dungeon, this is exactly what you need to use. Furies with Riders won't stand still.

Hi! Sorry if this topic has already been discussed. Has anyone leveled up the elven ballistic ability that charges ballista arrows with spells? If I translated and understood correctly, can you fire a ballista 3 times, for example, with a meteor shower, and it will cover the area 3 times? Is that right?

I leveled it up. It works that way, but I don't think you can put that kind of spell on it, or am I missing something? In general, such a ballista won't last long in a game against a human player, so I think there's no point in leveling it up except against the AI.

If I'm not mistaken, it refers to the enchanted arrow ability. It affects not the ballista, but the hero who shoots. Something like that. If not, please correct me:)

there's a skill called Enchanted Ballista. I don't play as Elves (I play as the Light faction), but I know all the skills.

To be more precise, there is an enchanted ballista (an ability that elves have). When an elf hero uses the Enchanted Arrows ability, the same spell is also applied to the ballista. It creates a powerful combination (ballista proficiency, enchanted ballista, triple shot + defense ignore for the ballista + hero's spell), but mana quickly runs out...

Here's the deal. An enchanted ballista will imbue all of its projectiles with the hero's spells, which means the hero's mana pool will decrease.
To acquire this skill, you need: Avenger novice, basic machine operation, and ballista operation!

Okay, thanks. And if it fires three times, does the spell take effect three times? That's completely ridiculous! For example, if they're besieging your city, and you fire a ballista at a unit next to the enemy catapult, or at the catapult itself, that's it. One turn, and the catapult is gone.

That's why they try to get rid of the Elven ballista as a priority...

Great. I'll download the ballista when I get home. And why, no matter how much I read the forum, does no one talk about dark magic, saying that elves need to level up summoning magic and light magic? I was able to defeat armies five times larger and stronger than mine with "Suggestion" and "Berserk (which is Battle Frenzy)." In my opinion, there's no magic better than "Suggestion" and "Phantom."

What about Raise Dead? What’s the point of this spell if all the resurrected units die after the battle? Or are you talking about Resurrection? I don’t think it’s very effective. It only resurrects a few units, and in the end, you spend all your time constantly resurrecting them instead of fighting. But when you hypnotize 50 Archdevils and blast them at 110 Pit Lords, that’s something else. And it’s even better to hypnotize those who don’t respond, then they fight for you for half the battle.

Hypnosis is dispelled by any area-of-effect spell; even a slight touch from thorns will do it, although it hurts.

Yes, that's true, but you have to agree that the enemy is forced to spend an entire turn on some ridiculous spell that also harms its own army.

And regarding "Phantom," I was surprised to discover that the cloned creature has the original characteristics of the spell's target. For example, if you clone an archangel that has already cast resurrection, the phantom can also resurrect. And considering the phantom's unreduced initiative, it will be able to resurrect someone before it is defeated. And so on, endlessly.
