Why would a Berserker be helpful? Just throw him at the enemy units, and they'll attack the Warmongers. That's it. :smile20:

I recently played a battle – I was playing as a Dread Knight, and my brother was playing as a Hag. I cast all sorts of dark spells on him – Berserk, Mass Slow, Mass Weakness, and Mass Plague (to reduce his rage). I finished him off with vampires! He lost completely! I was even surprised myself – that’s what dark magic can do! It’s deadly against Orcs! P.S. Oh, I forgot – he even took the “Darkness” artifact.

Deidra is a great Hero, though Haghesh is good too, but only in different periods of the game... Haghesh becomes weak towards the end compared to Deidra. And it's not difficult to take him, you just need magic, and some defense wouldn't hurt. Also, add Cursed Land and Orcs to the mix. :smile03:

Why would a Berserker help? Just throw him at the enemy, and they'll attack the Warmongers... easy peasy:smile20:

This is only if they are standing close to each other. Besides, there is Dwarven artillery that is effective against Berserkers.

This is if they are standing next to each other :) And besides, there is a Dwarven artifact that works against a Berserker.

You still need to find the Dwarven artifact, and if you don't:smile32:

Orcs have a very hard time against dark magic and summoning, but especially against dark magic... :smile42:

No one argues about that; it's as clear as day. If Orcs had the ability to dispel magic, they would be a fantastic faction!

They already have plenty... maybe even too much. I saw someone messing around with Orcs... a hero named Arantir, I don't know what level, but with a Phoenix, Avatar of Death, 150 archers, 10 vampires, and groups of 5-6 Spectres. The Orc army was huge, 450 Red-Eyed Cyclops under Berserk (skilled). They took out their own first, and then died under constant resurrection and summoning of air elementals. Skilled Dark Magic was doing wonders... or maybe it was a cheater or a very skilled player. I found a video on Yandex.

I can't believe it... There's a clear imbalance.

...I think the Orc hero was around level 1, or was it cheating after all?!

At high levels, Orcs are unbeatable. Unless, of course, they are facing Elves with Winged Boots at the same level, which is difficult, but still winnable.

Wait, what about Iranna with maxed-out Empathy and Sorcery skills? She's almost constantly casting spells (and artifacts don't always drop). It's most difficult to play against aggressive factions (but ultimately, the PLAYER is what matters most – that's a fact). Everything else is just empty talk.

Hold on, what about Iranna with maxed-out empathy and spellcasting skills? She's almost constantly casting spells (and artifacts don't always drop). It's most difficult to play against aggressive factions (but ultimately, the PLAYER is what matters most – that's a fact). Everything else is just empty talk.

Well, he said it all here.
