Posts from "Frida's Dilemma" - "Negotiations" [Campaign 1, Mission 4]

By the way, as far as I remember from my first playthrough of this mission, towards the end, not 45 paladins join, but only 4 – if you play on Recruit difficulty.

45 is the level if you open the dungeon for the dwarf artifacts, and 4 is on the map itself. I just finished this mission, and that's what happened to me. The map is actually quite easy. I have a Frieda who is a great fighter, with 17 attack and 21 defense. I also leveled up the "Impact" perk, which increases damage by 5% multiplied by morale. My morale is currently +3, which gives me a +15% damage bonus. Combined with the 15% attack bonus from the "Expert" skill, that's a 30% increase in melee damage.

What isn't there?) I'm talking about artifacts. Well, I haven't checked it myself because I gave the King of the Dwarves' greaves to a mage, but people wrote about it in the forum, and by the way, it's also mentioned in the walkthrough on GameFAQs, that the Dungeon gives 45 Paladins for the Dwarven artifacts, but I don't know why you only got 1...

PS Did it seem to me, or has the interval between gaining experience been reduced in Hammers of Fate? Frida leveled up very quickly, or maybe they just give more experience for completing quests in Hammers of Fate, I only leveled up 2 times for quests on this map.

As for templates, I don't mind playing with a proper build, but after completing the campaigns, I don't really feel like playing the original Heroes anymore, because the enemies in Heroes almost always behaved passively, and fighting them was boring and uninteresting.

What's the point of capturing it?

The interesting part is that there isn't a clear concept of a "correct build," and there are various options :smile02:, for example, with Frieda, there are several alternatives.

Capturing a Castle is not a condition for victory – that is true. The developers specifically protected the player from this "randomness" by placing a strong garrison. But, since there are no more interesting battles left for you in the Campaign, I suggested it as an option. The possibility of capturing a city is nothing more than a check to see if you have done everything correctly: leveled up your hero, chosen and used magic in battle. "Dark" magic might help, however, there are dragons in the garrison, and there are many of them, so you shouldn't forget about them. They are the ones that make the battle for the garrison difficult. Without them, this battle would be at the "warrior" level. And regarding the topic of "template" – capturing a Castle is not described even once, while the Campaign Walkthrough is broken down into all its components. There is room for Creation here.

Also, instead of four anti-magic schools and logistics, you can level up machine skills with order and education for an Orc.:rolleyes:
