Posts from Haven – “Do not tempt the desperate” [Campaign 3, Mission 3]

Have you tried walking through the shallows? Near the waterfalls? Downstream and upstream? No?

here's what the map looks like; it seems impassable. maybe I missed some hidden path...

Click on the arrow in the bottom left corner of the map to see where the 3rd altar is located. Bring 10 crystals to each altar, approach the gates, open them, and capture the wolf's capital. After that, teleport to the mountain through the portal, defeat the nagas' leader, and then talk to Irina. She will tell you that she is pregnant and is acting all sweet and innocent. After that, on the 4th map, go and defeat the Legions of Hatred, led by Aribban, near the Falcon's Nest, and start a new campaign. Okay?

Oh, what a useful thing! Thank you very much!)))

Holy Flame... And why is it not fully translated in my version? Is this your translation of the name? If it is indeed called that, then it's another reference... To "Heroes of Might and Magic V".

Hello, comrades! I have a question, or rather, a bunch of questions about this mission that's been giving me trouble. The problem is that when my hero enters the territory of the city that needs to be captured as part of the quest (and, as I understand it, there are two ways to get into the city: cross the ford or sail in on a ship), the following happens. The hero, a snake, crawls towards the gate where another hero, also a snake, is standing. He stops a little distance away from him, near some stones, and that's it. Nothing happens. The game freezes, and even the escape key doesn't work. In this regard, I have the following questions: 1. Here, people are writing about some altars where crystals need to be brought. What altars are they talking about? 2. They also mention an engineer's house. What is this house? 3. I have the impression that the game is glitching. I would like to know how many quests there are at the beginning of the mission. I only have two: find the Tear of Ash and capture the city. It seems to me that there should be more! Please help me understand what's going on. Thank you in advance!

This bug has already been reported. Replay the mission and capture all the cities, and then proceed to the gate. The house and the altars for the quest will only appear after Muako (the snake) goes through the gate.

I have it with an English name; that’s just what I called it. By the way, Claw from Heroes of Might and Magic V is also there. :)

Claw appears in the second mission, I saw it :). True, the terrain around it has changed drastically.

Ah, I remember! It's called Flameshrein, I think. Then your translation is quite justified ;).

I can’t find the shipyard either. The map is open, but I’ve already checked everywhere. Please help.

The shipyard is located on the water, where the river widens; explore the banks.

Did I understand correctly? Is the "Path of Tears" the ONLY way to complete the mission?

Path of Tears:

Click on the arrow in the lower left corner of the map to see the location of the 3rd altar. Bring 10 crystals to each altar, approach the gates, open them, and capture the wolf's capital.

Path of Blood:

After clearing the entire map, approach the gates of the single castle; they will open.
After defeating the hero waiting there, you will receive a book that grants advanced wall-breaking abilities, which you can then use to attack the last city on the right side of the map.

After capturing it, you can access the lower right corner of the map.

I completed the map without any problems on the normal difficulty level. However, it's strange that I didn't have any quests to find altars. The hero followed the path of Blood.

I completed it on Hard difficulty. It was quite challenging. I went straight to the right, and the first enemy, Kalindra, appeared from there; I defeated her several times afterward. To deal with the annoying Naga, I ventured east, captured one town, and later a second one by the lake. After that, the raids stopped. I then needed to capture the town further down the rapids, past the whirlpools, but it wasn't that important anymore. I still don't understand what happens to the hero after visiting the whirlpool. In the fifth week, the army decreased by a few creatures; maybe it's the same in the sixth week. But there was no shortage of troops; the neutrals scattered and joined me. After collecting and exchanging enough crystals and re-dedicating the altars, I entered the gate, took the town, jumped into the spirit gate, and killed the Naga-shapeshifter. There was a structure on the map, surrounded by gates (not Flame Gates), and it remained unexplored. It seems it's for a Blood hero. I especially enjoyed the battles at the beginning of the game. A small group of troops, led by a hero who is no longer a novice, can pass without losses, which is particularly satisfying. It's advisable to collect artifacts at the top, near the Orcish neutrals; some of them, which are collectibles, remain for the next mission!:smile20:, as does Shantiri's disc!!!:eek: The lack of crystals is the only difficulty in this mission.
