Posts from Which hero do you like?

Why be a Fire Elemental with only 20% resistance to Chaos when you can become an Archmage? :) Or a Fire Guardian with fire resistance? :) (that's your Chaos right there):D (you can't take him out of the fire). And the Guardian has 10 to the defense of the entire army, while the Pyromancer has a fire shield only for himself. ;)

That's what I'm saying. It's better to be some kind of powerful figure than a melancholic loner.

This is exactly where the question of this thread "Which hero do you like?" becomes relevant.
In the early stages, a Nature warrior's summon provides 20% more Wolves and Tigers, and at the same time, level 2 War Magic offers great opportunities. Meanwhile, a Fire mage gaining 20% to their magic loses potential 20 points of defense, which risks losing the hero.
Or in the late stages of the game—in the final battle, for example—using mages with GM (5lvl) War Magic is more useful than using a similar Chaos caster with GM Scouting. After all, you can't just wipe out a mage in one blow, whereas a Chaos caster will most likely be able to use their +20% magic only once. Everything is learned through practice ;).
On the other hand, skilled players on rich maps use advanced classes—exactly those you mentioned—during the first few weeks, but they bring mages with War Magic into the finale regardless.
But in most cases... everyone has their own preference; any tactic can be a winning one :)

I agree, but here's another issue:
You learn a tactic and everything related to it, become a grandmaster, and attack someone. In battle, your units have a huge advantage, but then one moment comes (the moment of disintegration :)), your hero dies, and ALL the bonuses go to hell. :(
The only solution is to have 1000 potions in your pocket?

Even though my faction is Castle (Humans), I still haven't decided which one to choose (I'm torn between Necropolis and the one I mentioned above). I like the wars with Humans (the undead also have them, but Castle has more :)), and I like the heroes and magic of the Necropolis (especially the wave of death; I hope it will be in Heroes 5). And Sandro is forever (it's a pity that there isn't a Sandro undead avatar here :((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

You see, there's an unwritten rule in such battles: don't put Tactics in the front rows :). But besides this favorite hero, you can protect him with Magic Resistance, artifacts with that ability, or monsters. And it's not a given that Disintegrator will get to do its job, because usually, the morale and speed of monsters are much higher than that of heroes, especially with a heavily armored Tactics.

You level up your tactics and everything related to it, become a grandmaster, and attack someone. In battle, your units have a huge advantage, but then one moment (the moment of disintegration:)) your hero kicks the bucket, and ALL the bonuses go to hell:(
The only way out is to have 1000 potions in your pocket?:)

After disintegration, nothing will help. The hero dies a final death, and his corpse disappears from the battlefield. He cannot be resurrected:)

After disintegration, nothing can help. The hero dies permanently, and his corpse disappears from the battlefield. It is impossible to resurrect him.

Even worse.

Generally, I like Druids and what they can become (Demonologist, Warlock, etc.), as well as Priests and Barbarians. Specifically, I like Agraenel, Alita, and Shiva.

Barbarians are better :) (but I won't deny the Haven faction either).

Thief! I only play as Chaos because of him!

Heh-heh, he's one of us:)

I also like the Mage/Wizard/Druid!

As I think, chaos magic is the most powerful, therefore...

In my opinion, chaos magic is the most powerful, therefore...

...it's not the most powerful, but rather deals the most damage. For example, how do you compare Chain Lightning, Guardian Angel, and (for instance) summoning Mantises? Which one is stronger and by how much? :D :D :D

I compare them like this:

The most unpleasant one is also the most powerful.
