You just aren't very good at playing as the High Elves! That's where your problems lie! First, you need to develop Luck and Leadership, then Light and Chaos magic, and fill the last slot with whatever is best for that hero! And also, the High Elves are one of the strongest races!!!:smile49:

Well, I don't know. I just think that leaving Elven Archers without the Attack skill, and therefore without shooting and Battle Frenzy, is not a very good idea. And since the chance of getting the Attack skill is 2%, in order not to risk losing it altogether, I prefer to take Wingael (and his individual ability is also good). That's why it's developed first (because it's already there), then, according to your plan... and that's how it turns out that you only start developing Light magic sometimes after level 20... And for further development, you can't do without neutral creatures (you need a lot of experience), so you have to fight serious battles with serious heroes, and you still don't have anything to remove high-level spells with...
Help!!!

Hmm... It seemed to me that I didn't write this, but you did...

And regarding the mages... many units, especially dragons, attack everyone indiscriminately and don't care who is friend or foe. You just need to aim properly.

Yes, I wrote that, but it's about how they look STUPID, especially regarding the flying and landing of cities at the wrong time (during an attack by enemy troops).

My faction rating:
1. Dungeon
2. Necropolis
3. Demons
4. Humans
5. Gnomes
6. Sylvan
(And mages don't deserve to be on this list at all).

probably the opposite =). The topic is about the LEAST favorite faction.

probably the other way around =) the topic is about the LEAST favorite.

Here, Mages are so disliked that not everyone even includes them in the ranking. :D

I hate light elves because... I just hate them, even though their troops aren't that great. I feel bad for the mages with gargoyles, and I'll never forgive them for removing the nag. I'm also disappointed with the dark knights in the Necropolis faction, although death with a scythe is also not bad. And mages are NOT lame. But the winner of this parade is the elves; I still hate them because these "happy tree friends" are the only truly evil creatures in Heroes 5.

The most UNPOPULAR faction in Heroes 5 is definitely the Necromancers. :smile16:

It's strange that no one is mentioning in what sense a faction is disliked. Is it about playing as that faction, or playing against it? I'm currently playing through the 6th campaign. It seems like I like all the factions. Some are stronger at the start, others are stronger in the long run.

I don't like playing as a Wizard. And I don't like their design either :smile18:

Sure, Night Nazgul, but mages aren't that bad! The Academy is a very strong faction, no worse than others! I like it more than Inferno or Necropolis!

I know that the Academy is a strong faction, but I enjoy playing as the Dungeon.

The Academy has weak units at the beginning (gremlins and gargoyles), but later on, its units and hero-mages become very strong, and I will repeat once again: the main disadvantage of a hero-mage from the Academy is its low movement range. But once the hero reaches the enemy, all its power is unleashed on the opponent.

to MagicMan and 3DogMZA - I'm not talking about strength, but about design!

me

The appearance is just awful! Mages with beards look more like market vendors than wise mages, combat robots, stools, clownish outfits (although it's supposed to be a war, not a circus :D)! In short, the race is :smile18: :smile18: and one more time :smile18: !!!

Is it spilling out?
That is, something liquid?

:smile52: :smile52: :smile52:

And Nival has a strange sense of humor - the castle flies and then, during a siege, it falls. :D

Regarding the design, I disagree! The Mages are well-made! And how should they be dressed if they live in the desert?! But the Academy's Castle design is indeed interesting! It was flying, flying... :rolleyes: then it was attacked and suddenly fell!:D

A certain aversion to Inferno. I only tolerate Cave Demons and Demonesses. Although, based on their stats, I wouldn't say they are weak.
And the upgrade – Incineration – didn't excite me; it feels like they ran out of ideas.
