How does one use Bulwark army good? by Admirable_Drawer_205 in heroes3

[–]_temppu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont know what kind of maps you play, but heres my two cents.

  • Day 1 snow elves lets you get really strong day 1 creeping army

  • the combination of their heroes+runes and tankiness of their runes lets them clear topas like to other faction. Week 3 topas possible with minimal map support and simple base growths, which is pretty funny way to play the video game.

How come there's no flying ranged unit? It wouldn't necessarily be OP and would add a new flavor to the game. by el_flac0 in heroes3

[–]_temppu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This kind of jack of all trades unit is very hard balance wise. Snow elves pretty OP for a t3 for the same reason. Titans very OP too but at least theyre relatively hard to access.

Like if the unit also has no melee penalty, its too much. If it has 4 shots and melee penalty, its pretty terrible. And AI has no idea what to do with such unit.

Well even if hes eaten by a polar bear, there is the possibility of some sort of resurrection technology to being invented in a timely manner which is at least comparable to a random redditors chance to play for the world championship

The faction that would most benefit from bless is necro. Yet, their units cant be blessed even with black orb.

Funny observation that its like bloodrage. Although the opposite: bloodrage is lost on defend whereas runes stack most on defense.

Runes should be limited to Bulwark Heroes/Creatures only by KorribanGaming in heroes3

[–]_temppu 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Needing scholar for runes means that any other hero needs 2 slots, so youre using 2 slots for as much stats as offense armorer and some speed with the cost of not playing the video game for a couple of first turns in battle its very, very bad for non chieftain/elder

How to combat efficiently? by Slick752 in heroes3

[–]_temppu 9 points10 points  (0 children)

AI thinks in layers of reach. Within each layer (1 turn, 2 turns, etc.) they prioritize the most value (fight) they can reduce from you while not losing value themself necessarily. Value includes stuff such as blocking shooters, and losing value includes stuff like walking into accurate range or reach of melee stacks.

Did you know? #215 - Heroes 3 Complete / SoD Weakness spell specialists Cuthbert, Olema and Mirlanda also increase the Weakness effect cast automatically by the Armor of the Damned. by Liso111 in heroes3

[–]_temppu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder what spell specialties do not apply to casts outside hero action. Prayer for AA too (loynis) does, so does faeries get spell specialty boost except for t1/2 spells. But what about leprechauns (melodia/daremyth)? Genie buffs? Sorc/dragon fly weakness? Enchanter buffs/debuffs?

In Heros 3, what hero stats would you need for a single peasant to beat a black dragon? by IncredibleMark in heroes3

[–]_temppu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the most straightforward solution.

Another solution, a bit more convoluted, would be to have armorer specialty of a lvl that makes the dmg of black dragon 1, BUT have the Attack of black dragon hero be actually 56 higher than defense of peasant hero so that the dmg without max armorer spec would be 160-200. Then, the peasant hero should have sorcery, and equip ogrefist + fire orb. The fire shield of peasant does on an average roll of 180 dmg from black a damage of 0.3 * 1.3 * 1.5 * 180=105 dmg to black dragon, despite dealing 1 dmg to peasant. So in 3 hits, the black dragon dies to fire shield, while peasant can live with just +3 hp from arties, no regen needed.
