Posts from Which monster do you like the most in Heroes 5 at level 5?

I voted for the Liches. Territorial strike and all that. Everything has already been described here.

P.S. It's a pity that Orcs and Dwarves are not in the poll...

There aren't many here. The poll should be updated... Well, I voted for the Hydras – I remember they helped me a lot in the campaign for Rai'lag. They are strong enough, so no one messes with them + they have no weaknesses + they have a circular attack. In short, they are powerful.

Heh, they are powerful in the campaign and against dumb bots. :)) But against players, they are completely useless.
In my opinion, the top 5 strongest units include Hellhounds, Unicorns, and Executioners. The rest are a step below them.

unicorn and lich, then nightmare - good job!)

Voted for Liches. Although they are not the primary damage dealers in a Necromancer's army, experience shows that by the time you accumulate 50 Liches, you will already have 1000-1500 skeletal archers, which are much more effective and can be further protected by zombies. Liches can only be effectively used with a specific tactic, and even then, it's not as effective, and my PC doesn't like them. But the poll isn't about that. Of course, Liches will defeat everyone, unlike in PvP against Nightmares, which can put up some resistance. But it all depends on the situation.

Djinn are, of course, not the same as Djinn Sultans. Djinn Sultans can inflict plague on an enemy without spending mana, and their swords are powerful.

Джины!

I choose Nightmares. In my opinion, it's a very strong unit, especially if there are many of them. I would also choose the Hydra. It's a slow but deadly unit, like a walking tower of death.

Liches are my favorite units (especially Archliches). They have excellent ranged attacks and spells. It's cool how they attack in melee combat (you can see they are powerful mages).

Definitely Hydras! When I play as Dungeon, I always survive thanks to them. Usually, everyone else is already defeated, but these are the only ones still fighting and winning.

So, it seems most people voted for Liches and Archliches, which is what I expected. Honestly, I didn't find them that impressive:smile17:. I'm only voting for Inquisitors; they have more hit points and defense. The only downside is their damage output, but in close combat, they fight without any penalties, and then their damage is comparable to that of Archliches.

I never liked Liches: their damage is underwhelming. They're only useful for quickly eliminating single units with their cloud attack. Also, the alternate form can raise a few undead, but that's just a minor perk.

Neither archliches nor inquisitors impressed me with their damage output, but the former can cast spells, while the latter are indeed quite tanky. However, I disagree with the statement that

, as liches have a very nice melee combat animation.

I disagree about the Archliches; Liches have very beautiful melee attack animations :D.

No, Winner, I disagree with you. Beautiful animations don't determine which monster is better or stronger; it's about proven facts that an Inquisitor is stronger in melee combat than an Archlich, and there's nothing you can do about it. Also, these Liches are large creatures, which is a big disadvantage:smile44:. You can't just "pack them away," and if you really want to hide them from melee monsters, you need a strategy and a lot of warriors around them:smile18:. But Inquisitors are easy to "pack away," and that's how we do it:smile14:. Also, before the battle, large creatures with a speed of 7 can easily reach the Liches and block them, and that's what it will look like:smile30: :D.

What’s wrong with unicorns? They are strong in melee combat, have magic resistance, and their speed is decent. They are also relatively durable.
