Posts from Haven faction discussion.

That wouldn't be bad:smile54: :D But I'm leaning towards resurrections and blessings.

And two swords actually look pretty good. Why did they give them a sword? For the same reason they gave the skeleton two spears. For aesthetics :)!

I don't really like this. At this rate, they'll really put angels in the elite tier. And that's not good at all. And, again, it's illogical. I hope the developers won't come up with such changes :eek:!

But did they think about how the girl will hold 2 swords that are comparable in size to a seraphim, without wings, or do they go to the gym to lift them:D. Well, it does look beautiful, I won't argue:)
Well, maybe, but who will replace them? The only candidate seems to be the huge swordsman-paladin from parts 1-2, or another dragon, but that's immediately out of the question. And I've already gotten used to the angels, I really liked these fighters as the strongest in the race:cool:

I'm not arguing (I don't really like two swords either). Well, about mercy, maybe with the help of the sword, he will resurrect allies.:cool:

Not a bad explanation, well, the red sword is obviously for justice, and the blue one is for mercy:)
And they will probably use seraphim with different swords in different situations. You need to hit someone on the head with a red sword, resurrect an ally with a blue one) And now not only the upgraded one will be able to resurrect, but also the regular one (at least he was also given 2 swords)

Guys, I have a feeling that the angels were renamed to seraphim because the racial ability of Haven will be Guardian Angel, and it will be given by a flying angel (my reasoning)

But if a sword is useless, why not give a pendant or a cross with a blue gemstone in the middle instead, which would be better for resurrection?

A small pendant and a sword of normal size just don't seem to match.

Then a giant pendant or, as I said, a cross like the ones worn by monks from game 5.

But then, why give a sword? It would have been better to give a pendant or a cross with a blue gemstone in the middle for resurrection.

Obviously, they gave a sword for aesthetic reasons, and a cross, like the ones monks wear, wouldn't fit the animation, I think. Besides, archangels used swords to resurrect in Heroes of Might and Magic V, so the developers just expanded on that and probably gave two swords for two purposes.

It would have been better if, instead of some sword, they had made a shield, and they could resurrect units with it.

Or better yet, a huge cross around the neck and a flaming sword in hand. :D
Let it just stay as it is. ;)

Haven't you heard of the expression "a mercy killing"? The principle behind the new sword is the same.

A merciful strike, and the peasant got rich. What do the developers want – for us to enrich the enemy or make him happy with a sword strike?

"Mercy strike" doesn't mean that at all.

Kind little angels :smile36:

A Mercy Strike is a blow delivered to a mortally or severely wounded opponent who is no longer resisting, in order to end their suffering.
I want the Seraphs to have an ability like that, but instead of a mortally wounded opponent, it should be applied to a simply wounded one.

This will probably be an ability similar to that of the Death Messenger or Pit Lord in Heroes of Might and Magic V, right?

A Mercy Strike is a blow delivered to a mortally or severely wounded enemy who is no longer resisting, in order to end their suffering.

Hmm. So, if the "top" creature in a stack doesn't have full health, it will die regardless? Well, it seems a bit weak for a champion. It would be better to give this ability to elite units.
