Posts from Which Hero from Heroes of Might and Magic III is the best?

I would have voted for Serena from the Tower, but she's not available. But in a pinch, I'd choose Oris from the Stronghold, but she's not here either :(

Is this a joke??? Or does Serena really have some secret?:confused: I recently read that Astral is a pretty good mage, and I read it from a good player. Seriously. As for Oris, besides the almost guaranteed chance to learn Blind, which the AI uses on behemoths, by level 10-15, I haven't noticed any other significant advantages.

For me, they are all the same, both those listed and others; the main thing is the hero's specialty, which should not be confused with races.

Good day! I saw this thread and looked at the results. In most of the answers, the main argument is the usefulness of the hero in terms of completing the game. It's immediately clear that these are experienced players. But for me, as someone who likes to play for fun, not for the result, the heroes are interesting as characters. Therefore, my choice is as follows: 3rd place - Xiron. A demon, a hero from the Campaigns, a specialist in demons. It's a pity that there are only 2 missions for him in the game... 2nd place - Sandro. For the grand scope of his plans. Also, 10 years ago, when I saw on the cover of the disc "Sandro, a powerful evil lich, is looking for two combinations of magical artifacts," I immediately bought it and realized that this game was for me. I still play it. 1st place - Mutare. Because she's an amazing girl!

I voted for Jelu. Jelu is stronger than a dragon in what way? I'll answer. Because he turns units of level 2-3 into snipers. And snipers shoot without penalty, plus he can quickly develop the Tactics skill, which is very important for archers.

I voted for Adrian. I was very surprised that no one else supported me in this. He's a hero who starts with expertise in fire magic and the "Inferno" spell, which can easily damage 3-4 units, dealing 100 damage each. It's enough to gain just 1 point of knowledge to destroy large groups of weak units with a spell power of "1."

I voted for Jell, one of the strongest heroes in this game.

Definitely, Gelo. He is the most powerful in the entire game!

a very difficult question: the sniper Jhelu, like the Dragon Wizard, can turn out to be useless if we have at least a well-developed Orrin with a lot of archers. Kragg??? The Tub is much better. At least 10 times better. Sandro??? Awesome: both a Necromancer and the same Pulse spell from him will hit very hard. Adrian is a completely useless hero... and the rest are just a bunch of random characters (I'm kidding).

I, to put it mildly, doubt that crossbowmen under Orrin will be better than snipers. Well, wizards might be better, but snipers? Unless you don't have enough money for snipers, then the logic is clear.

Krag??? Tazik is much better. At least 10 times better.

Well, Tazik is good for his own faction, the Swamp faction. Putting him in a Rampart should also make him fight well. But the Citadel is an attacking castle. I wouldn't risk, playing as the Citadel, exchanging Krag for Tazik.

Well, the "Tazik" is good for its own faction, good against the Swamp faction. You could put him in some kind of "Rampart," and he should fight well. But the "Citadel" is an attacking castle. I wouldn't risk, playing as the "Citadel," trading Krag for Taz.

Pff. It's the opposite!

I think that says it all.

For Cytosian troops, offense is more important than armor, as they are generally fragile and rely on speed and attack. Therefore, it is more important to deal more damage to the enemy and avoid taking damage themselves. Swamp troops, on the other hand, rely on defense and health; they will inevitably take hits, so it is necessary to minimize the damage from those hits, and armor is perfect for that.

what do you think about castles, for example? is offense or armor more important for them?

sniper level 4, and archer level 2. let's compare archmages under Orrin and snipers under someone without armor specialization)))

a level 4 sniper versus a level 2 archer. Let's compare archmages under Orrin and snipers under someone without armor specialization.

Okay, Orrin's specialization works stronger than I thought. And still, if the town is a Castle, the choice isn't obvious. After all, you can create a lot of snipers from archers, unlike mages in a Tower.

The best hero is Melodia from Rampart! I love blondes ;)
