Announcement from .ru :
"Secrets of the time - what is it? The path to greatness or invincible to the death of everything? Why is it that causes a boundless admiration for one - in other hearts instills panic? How can they not understand that there is the force that can not be subordinated to? Even those phenomena that once attributed to the power of the gods - now serve as a tool in the hands of the powerful. And this power sooner or later, will also serve the will of mortals! Otherwise, we will be better than the weak-willed savages that live on the other side of the temporary fault? "- Just what thoughts do not bother with the court magician, whiling away the long hours of the ritual of opening the portal of time. The more Abu Bakr pondering over the situation - the more resolutely wanted to prove to the world the truth of their point of view. Past its portal, in the opinion of the magician, it was the most perfect of all, and this means - to become more perfect!
Heroes, time portal reopened - and is ready to tell us about the new mysteries of the past. The favorable location of the stars in the sky will last only 8 days until February 15, inclusive (two days at the end of the fighting, until 17 February inclusive). During this period, any hero of the 5th Combat level can make a trip into the past and fight with its inhabitants. Necessary to pass through the portal 250 energy crystals get anyone. Traveling into the past and especially the portal impose certain restrictions:
- Selected skills do not work;
- Skills and abilities of factions are not working;
- Travel is only possible artifacts from the store;
- Improvements to the artifacts do not work;
- When dialing beings from different factions have lowered the morale of troops;
- Construction of 'Hall of Unity' allows you to dial There are different factions without reducing morale.
Fighting in the past will take place in the 2x2 format. In addition, in the past you can not take your army and use it learned spells. You must use the power crystals to recruit troops, who will accompany you on a hike. You can type units as a single fraction or multiple. You can take as the improvement of existing and traditional at the same time. Initially, the portal of time passes there is only the first level, but it can be improved and collect crystals above existing levels. Cost units in crystals can be very different from the cost in past campaigns. Similarly, and with the magic - improving the portal of time, you can get access to all spell schools, and at the maximum level.
Abu Bakr guarantee the return of all the heroes of the past, but places a limit of 12 trips per day (attempts are accumulated). It is known that the characters wins before last defenders, besides getting a good amount of skill and returned with a small amount of gold and additional crystals, for which you can also donabrat groups or improve the time portal.
[Important] The court magician focuses his attention on the main priority the combat mission. The main goal - to get the greatest number of crystals. In this regard it should take into account the following features of the portal magic:
The amount received by the time of the crystals depends on the level of complexity of combat. Initially available five levels of difficulty: from 1 to 5 - you can start with any. When passing the 5th level, the hero will be available for 10 levels of difficulty - from 1 to 10. With the passage of the 10th level, the hero will be available on levels 5 to 15, etc. Throughout the campaign, you can only win 5 wins at the same level.
Use your past experience in the fight against the last defenders and be careful. With mind distribute the resulting crystals, and choose the level of difficulty - from this depends on the outcome of the battle. For victory in battle, you can get the artifact creatures, artifacts hero mercenary guild members. And remember - Travel back in time can have fatal consequences in the future, try |
| any good setups for starters? |
| Question. Does faction skill lvl rewards count for units? If I pick elvish will they be stronger than others for me? |
| no skill doesnt matter :) |
any good setups for starters?
For ICIP
I usually start with 2 small stacks of goblin warlocks
a small stack of gob archers
a stack of gobs
plus big stacks of peasants/brutes/recruits.
Dont know if they have changed prices though. |
for Aurelija:
The ONLY effective parameter of your faction is your innate primary skill point.
Say if you choose knight, your attack parameter will be increased by 1.
That is to say, if you pick elf, your initiative parameter will be increased by 3.
Which faction is most advantageous?
1 attack equals 5% 'damage of troops' which is worth 48 cot.
1 defense equals 5% 'damage reduction' which is worth 35 cot.
3% init is worth 31 cot.
1 knowledge is worth nothing unless you unlock magic.
Therefore, choose demons, barbarians, or tribal to begin, as you gain 1 attack bonus which is worth 48 cot for the most. |
@9 Thanks :)
Yeah I was thinking about this round mostly, since i didn't want to check prices :P
Looks like at least gob archs are ridiculously pricey, and f.ex. grem engineers are cheaper with double HP and higher ini...
Tribal gobs are 77 for 10 crystal, wonder if they're any good :D |
ICIP:
Gobby archers are decoy. They are targeted first. I use only 2 factions so as not to get morale hit. ;)
Buffers are expensive and can only be bought at higher levels but debuffers are essential (for at least one of the pair).
Fights seem tougher. lost at lvl 3 already (spider queen thing...) :( |
| What works well for me is a stack of master spearmen. Their ranged attack is strong and later they can be used for melee combat or distraction while your other slow hitter(I use guardians and crusaders) can advance. + They are not instantly focused, more often your teammate will get focused first. |
well thats a little harsh isnt it, you shouldnt put so much pressure on ur teammate.
my setup is goblin archers, rogues, bandits, wolf riders and boars.
goblin archers and rogues are the bait. rogues are good for luring in enemy. |
At the beginning I prefer to do a single faction so as to not lose morale or spend crystals on a hall of unity. (they are a large proportion of crystals at the beginning, though less so as you progress)
DE worked fine for me, I have seen barb do well, |
well thats a little harsh isnt it, you shouldnt put so much pressure on ur teammate.
it is a team event, so if i have to sacrifice my troops, so my teammates' troops can advance and kill the enemy in the end, i am okay with it.
i take some gob warlocks for debuff, master spears, brutes (theyre slow, but not focused, and have good damage when reach the emenies), and forest brethren for fast blocking shooters. |
| does armaments works in the POT |
