What should you do if the cost of a spell is higher than the maximum amount of mana?

Load the game less often? It would take dozens of loads to bring the cost to that level.

Load less often? It would take dozens of loads to bring the cost down to that level.

By the way, about the level. From a certain point on, the cost of spells no longer increased. Although it was too late.

I'm going to ask a silly question. Is it impossible to play together on a LAN network without two copies of the game?

I don't think the game supports LAN play; it's only through Conflux.
Find each other and get started.

I encountered a bug; I remember someone describing it here, but I couldn't find it.
The main hero stopped accumulating blood points during battles. I don't understand what's causing it or how to fix it.
As a result, I completed the campaign for Rylagh, but I didn't have enough blood points (30) to reach the second level.
Now I don't know what the perks of a level 2 blood mage are.
That's a shame.
Can someone who knows help me? I might replay the map, but I'd also like to avoid this in the future.

In the thread, users reported that they couldn't launch one of the missions from the latest campaign. And apparently, someone is sending all the heroes only to the Tears faction. In my opinion, it doesn't quite fit the canon; it's hard to imagine Kirill and Sandor on that path. Irina is also a predator, and Nastya was impressed by the unholy word with healing, so only the kind Anton remains, with his doubts about the Inquisition, Elrath, and the multi-confessional Ashan.

Hey everyone, I have a licensed copy of Heroes 6, and I want to play Shades of Darkness. Do I need to install the previous expansions first? (like Pirates and others...). Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone, I have a licensed copy of Heroes 6, and I want to play Shades of Darkness. Do I absolutely need to install the previous expansions? (like Pirates and others?). Thanks in advance!

Not at all, but in my opinion, it's worth spending 300 rubles to get 2 extra bosses, 2 favorite creatures, several heroes, and additional buildings on the map (like hiring neutral creatures, such as wolves and mermaids) - I haven't seen these in other campaigns, 2 dynasty weapons, and of course, the maps are very beautiful.
I still recommend spending the money :)

It's not really necessary, but in my opinion, you can spend 300 rubles to get 2 bosses, 2 favorite creatures, several heroes, and additional buildings on the map (like hiring neutral creatures, such as wolves and mermaids) – I haven't seen these in other campaigns, 2 dynasty weapons, and the maps are very beautiful.

Thanks for the answer. Then, one more question: can you provide a link or tell me where to buy all the expansions, because on the official Ubisoft website, they cost 10 euros each, and Shades of Darkness costs 20 euros, which adds up to a significant amount (like 2 expansions at 10 euros each and the 2.1 patch for 20 euros).

We need to clarify what version you have.
Steam, or from Booka, Russian, English, etc.?
If it's the Russian version from Booka, you can order it from bookshop.ru or platy.ru.
The Steam version can be purchased on Steam, and there are usually good discounts there.

And does patch 2.1 only come with Shades of Darkness? Will those still using the base game not receive any updates this time?

No, all updates are applied to the original game. Update 1.5 includes "Pirates of the Savage Seas," 1.7 includes "Dance of Death," and 2.1 includes "Shades of Darkness." You can gain access to the corresponding expansions by entering a key. Without entering a key, the expansion will still be present (installing the patch also installs the expansion), but you won't be able to play it. I've also heard that there are standalone "Shades of Darkness" versions 2.0 that are updated to 2.1 and become a mix of everything that was released over the two years.

I checked the Buqa-shop and found the following:

“After paying for the purchase, you will be able to download the distribution of the game "Might & Magic: Heroes VI. Shades of Darkness" in your personal account. The distribution can be downloaded either via a direct link or using a torrent client. This version was uploaded on May 7 and contains all the expansions for the game, including "Shades of Darkness". After installing the game from this distribution, you will not need to download additional updates.”

Does this mean that by downloading this expansion, I will be able to play the previous versions as well? If anyone knows, please let me know.

It depends on what you are buying. If it's just "Shades of Darkness", then no. See the message above for more details.

Then something is wrong with me: when I launch the game, the patch doesn't update automatically (as it did with previous patch updates); only Uplay was updated, and the patch remains at version 1.8. Please advise on what the problem might be.

The automatic update to version 2.1 is not working. You need to manually download and install the patch, for example, from HeroesWorld.
