Vadimh, what secondary skills, besides Darkness and Light, did you train for the Faidhean, if it's not a secret?
Attack already exists, and it includes standard tactics, ranged attacks, and ballistics.
In Darkness and Light, skills focus on mass spells; you can take Storm Wind instead of Mass Divine Spells and Force of Will.
Luck can be increased through resistance and Elven skills.
The last slot should be Leadership or Logistics.
I don't see much point in the Defense skill, as enemies don't reach our troops, and those who do won't last long. A high defense stat for the hero and mass evasion will be sufficient, and there's also Stone Skin and Weakness.
And there’s also a 2% chance to find Darkness, so it’s easiest to get it in the hut near the city in the first mission, and in the second, and to get all the necessary magic for the demons.

In general, I’ve already leveled up to level 12 maximum and got all the skills by level 8:) I took Light magic in the hut, then Darkness appeared, then luck and the last one, as always, was Logistics)). It’s been 3 weeks, the 4th one has started, and I still haven’t broken through a single garrison. I’m playing on a hero. But it seems like the first Necromancer has appeared and is heading towards my garrison, we’ll see tomorrow if he attacks. Eh... the guards at the upgrade locations are tough on the hero, I haven’t freed even half of them, and Biara will appear soon, it will be a pity not to visit them:(
P.S. I'm playing through it all again now, but I haven't gotten to this one yet; I'm currently stuck on Necropolis-2. If there are any interesting details, I'll let you know.
I restarted the game several times; the items that dropped in the hut weren't what I needed. Finally, Light magic dropped, and I decided to stick with that. :)

So, I've already leveled up to 12 and got all the skills by level 8. I got Light magic in the hut, then Darkness, then luck brought me Logistics, and the last one was always Logistics. It's been 3 weeks, and the 4th week has started, but I still haven't broken through any of the outposts. I'm playing as a hero. But it looks like the first Necromancer is moving towards my outpost; we'll see tomorrow if he attacks. Oh well... the outposts are heavily guarded in this mode, and I haven't cleared even half of them, but Biara will appear soon, and it'll be a shame not to visit them. :(
In this mission, it's probably more convenient to develop him with Chaos/Light/Summoning skills. When I played this campaign and mission for the first time, I remember that the hero was developed as a fighter. I mean, without any advanced magic skills, which caused a number of problems...
P.S. I'm playing through all of this again now, but I haven't gotten to this mission yet; I'm currently stuck on Necropolis-2. If there are any interesting nuances, I'll let you know.
There will be a lot of level-up opportunities later on, especially in the Archipelago, and you won't need to rush anywhere else, so everything will be fine. Still, Fedya ends up being the most developed hero from the first mission, even without level-up opportunities.
haha, if there's an option in the game, it's not cheating :smile24: We're not entering cheat codes, unlike some people.
On the contrary, necromancy has weakened with the introduction of dark energy and the rise of high levels.
Exactly, at high levels, after the first battle in a week, the energy runs out and that's it. In the fifth game, before patches 1.6 and 2.1, there were hordes of skeletons, and 15% of the fallen would turn into skeletons without any energy cost, and as a result, each battle would bring in hundreds of skeletons, and in the end, there would be a huge number of these skeletons.

Something is wrong with that damned Biaara. I've already opened the entire map, cleared all the neutrals, captured all the garrisons, no one is blocking her path, but she still doesn't move, she just stands there, oh, I wasted so much time for nothing, I'll have to replay it, but this time I'll play on Recruit difficulty, because if she doesn't come again, I don't need to waste so much time for nothing again)).
PS In general, I have all the Campaigns and all the missions unlocked, but in the next mission, my Faeiden is much worse leveled, so I will definitely restart.
PS The most annoying thing is that in the external guilds, I got almost all the dark magic spells of levels 1-3 :( and now it's not a fact that I'll be so lucky again
