Posts from The weakest castle in Heroes of Might and Magic IV! Auto-translated

Two mages are good, but they will both have a low level, which will affect the strength of their magic and the overall quantity. Yes, it will be a hassle, but everything is possible.
As I said before, against Haven and Chaos, you need to play for speed to prevent them from developing their mages.

You have a Mage and a Knight. And the experience is also split equally, just like mine. But here, the solution is to level them up separately, if possible. Otherwise, we'll be evenly matched.
And regarding speed... you won't have time to develop either, and you won't have a general protection spell. But I will have two Mages, a Mage (unit), and a Djinn (whose spells might even be stronger than ours).

It's strange, when playing against me, you created 2 mages, but you only leveled up one, and used the other just to take good items from me. :smile01:

How will you level up only the Knight? Separately. And even then, it takes time. I won't just sit around either.

You won't get much stronger... We'll be evenly matched. But I have a castle nearby, so I can replenish my army, while you, if you spend time leveling up on your way to me, will arrive already weakened.

It seems I won't be able to convince you, but I'm still on the side of the optimal choice. I think it suits my playstyle better, and it seems like it will be stronger overall. The general defense of Haven is what makes the difference... But the topic is about the weakest castle, and in my opinion, that's just a misunderstanding. There's no magic, which is terrible, even though there are many creatures. But magic is what matters, in my opinion, and playing as them is boring, with zero tactics.

It's a pity that we don't have many Heroes 4 experts on our portal!
There are no inherently weak factions, some are just more convenient in certain situations than others.

That's right. Usually, in such topics, there are many arguments. But about what? One, for example, is good at playing as Necromancers but doesn't know how to play as Sylvan, another is good at playing as Sylvan but doesn't know how to play as Necropolis (as he said!). Then someone declares themselves a pro at Inferno, but plays poorly as Sylvan and Necropolis, and they start arguing with each other, without finding a common solution. Everyone remains with their own opinion.

Roughly what I wanted to say ... but didn't finish saying (so as not to offend)
I am not questioning the professionalism or correctness of anyone participating in the discussion, but most likely the FACT described by SandroXXL prevails in their discussion.
