As being a Demon i have used lots of ways to fight in a battle :
1. Luck build
2. Might build
3. Dark caster build
4. Defensive build
5. Rapid spell high initiative build
6. and even a quite succesful chaos magic build
But now i want to use the central talent of the wheel , the "Hellsfire"
I have been trying to figure it out for sometime but didnt had any luck finding a sure win Hellsfire build.
Can anyone show me any examples or battles where the Demon used a very effective hellsfire build ?? |
I honestly dont remember too well since it was a long time ago, but I remember a Demon hitting me with those ANNOYING 1 1 1 Spawn/Succubi/whatever gated stacks and triggering the Talent, which means he could make you a lot of damage with a stack of 1 creature.
I would tell you better but I dont even remember the dmg formula of the Talent. |
| You're probably still a bit low level to make full use of it. With mistresses, you can potentially trigger it 4 times a turn. |
Here are some I could find at your combat level:

Of course I only give winning examples. But those demons using hellfire lose more than they win. Anyway, it looks like a very fun playing style :) The combo of dark magic with the hellfire talent is pretty cool! |
The talent itself sais it all:
30%+2%*[demons faction kill] chance to deal extra 7+7*[lords spell power]
and it costs 5 mana each time it triggers.
Needless to say it's not meant to be for a might build. I have seen some people wreak havoc with it as a chaos magic build. Especially when the demon faction hits 10 and it becomes 50% chance to trigger, even a stack of 1 unit starts to do above 200 damage, practicly turning the units into that of might ones while casting meteor showers and chain lightnings.
In short the skill starts to shine at higher levels since it relies on spellpower. |
thanks for all ur valuable suggestion , can anyone suggest me artifacts which can get me these statistics :
Spell power : 12
Knowledge : 7
cant find much artifacts in the artifact shop with enough spell power and knowledge. |
It's even better when you combine it with Last Breath defensive talent.
- gate everything : double number of stacks
- takes 2 "kills" to remove each stack.
=> massive amount of stacks that can triger Hellfire |

My first succesful battle while using Hellsfire , IDk if the guys on the other side had every played a Hellsfire demon , they might be wondering how the hell i am killing their troops , hehe
Btw any suggestions , i am open for all , personally i felt i got a little less Battle XP |
split succubi... excelent idea!
You ran out of mana pretty fast. And i think your enemy barb could have worn some better armor.
but stil: nice tactics, you rule! |
| You had more spellpower than knowledge. The AI who uses hellfire always have more knowledge than spellpower. You should try swap those points. Hellfire is a mana drain :) |
Good point from Vengeful Spirit.
The idea is to anticipate how many times you'll need to trigger Hellfire versus how much damage you want it to deal. I guess that heavily depends on what you're facing.
--> but true, you do NOT want to run out of mana ^^ |
for Vengeful Spirit:
ai is stupid, dont copy them. |

for nytyn: Yeah i will probably use Restore mana for some wars , and for Barbs armour , Hellsfire is a Magic attack , Hence the enemies Defense wont matter , its like a spell , it will do the damage it is supposed to do.

I had 6 mana and 10 spell power , but dont forget my spawns(60) and gates spawns (26) add another 15-20 mana , so its like 8 mana . :D |
