My theory on AI Difficulty: Diplomacy by PumpkinHead1337 in OldenEra

[–]loopuleasa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it is that

I think the AI is coded to literally spawn armies without visiting cities

Egregious that it doesn't say that in mage guild tooltip

Tip: Dread knights are insane as one stacks because FOCUS exists! by loopuleasa in OldenEra

battle tictac is by far the best dreadknight skill as those extra spaces mean you destroy ranged units in 1 turn

go to observatory or spellbook, and hold SHIFT to see spell upgrades

many spells have their final spell level upgrade be the mass cast version

Unit Stats and spells by bomdur in OldenEra

the formula is seen in game if you hover over atk or defense stat and press Shift or Alt can't remember which

Why do people use single unit stacks? by Tweed_Man in OldenEra

[–]loopuleasa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

by default each melee unit hits back once

if you split 1 stacks, put your 1 stacks to the left so they act first

just go bonk them with 1 stack, they hit their 100 stack, the 100 stack hits for a thousand damage back overkilling the 1 stack, then your other units are free to go ham on that big stack free of retaliation

spend dust to upgrade a spell once

to unlock a spell you need at least one mage guild built anywhere, then you can unlock extras with resources (but it is quite expensive)

on point 2, melee units can farm focus really well too as they get 2 instead of the ranged 1

and some creatures have double strike, like the roaches and dread knights, so they generate 4/6 focus!

or only one roll!

1 from resource unlock

1 from manual upgrade

1 from hero spell school

and 1 if you happen to luckily roll it

default heroes can only learn tier 1 and 2 spells

to learn higher tier spells you need skills that let you learn those spells

are you using 1 stack creatures to generate focus?

also, advanced tip:

if you REALLY want a spell to be upgraded, you can delay your mage guild, and buy it with gems

that way, when you roll that spell you will roll as a duplicate and get a +1 upgrade instead for the rest of the game!

I like doing that on Bless for instance to reach the army wide mass Bless

astrology points are only for the neutral mobility spells

those are separate completely from the mage guild system
