The elemental mage... is standing above the sign, and there's no way to get past.

Yes, this is a well-known bug by the author; someone asked about it here not long ago. But the interesting thing is that I didn't encounter it in my playthrough: I just unpacked the save from the last day (7-3-6), and I hadn't reached that point yet. Abracus was sitting in his Conflux in the northeast corner, and he attacked me when the turn changed (or I attacked him, I don't remember exactly). Anyway, he got what he deserved, and that's where the game ended.

It's not a top-tier map, but I'll write about it in the walkthrough for the author's maps.

- please do! It might not be the best, but it's quite a difficult map.

I searched the internet - it's an old, first version of the map.

- I've only encountered this version and a version with the addition "TE" (presumably "Tournament Edition"), but I don't know who edited it. If you have information about the very latest author's version, please let me know. In the notes for the collection of the best maps, I explained how difficult it can be today to find the most recent version or to deal with any issues that arise. This happened with one old map. Although I was able to complete it, it requires serious improvements (if the author hasn't already done so), and it's unlikely that I can contact the author now.

So, I reached Solmyr in game 3-4-7 and, with some difficulty, won (actually, it was more luck – I somehow blinded everyone and started taking them out one by one). After the victory, I wondered if it makes sense to continue playing without the Fire Magic skill. In other words, will I be able to complete the map without using the Berserk spell at its highest level?

P.s. I know I reached Solmyr very late, so please don't tell me that!

rGamer, is the question still relevant? I didn't have a chance to check earlier, but now I've accessed my old saves and I see: yes, Xenium had fire magic. I don't remember exactly when I got it. In the first Conflux, the Knowledge town has a magic university; if there are free slots available, you can buy the missing schools of magic. I can say for sure that Xenium will need water magic to build a boat on the shore. But I understand that you have already passed that location.
