Hero Direct Damage Question

Unread postby Bonzer » 05 Feb 2008, 15:54

Something strange I have noticed...

When I attack enemy troops directly with any hero, not spells, they always inflict more damage to higher level enemy troops than lower level ones.

I rarely use this in mid / late game, but early on some heroes do more direct damage than spell damage

Surely it should be the reverse? Considering combat is a comparison of ATT vs DEF?

Has anyone else noticed this, and can anyone explain why.

it is a function of the level of the hero and the level of the target creature.

For example a lvl 1 hero will always kill 2 lvl1 units, and one level 2, unit.

The hero will kill a lvl 7 unit at level 20.

So the damage increases with the hero level and it will always deal enough damage to kill a certain number of creatures.

It also means that you're dealing a ton more direct damage to Assassins than Peasants (for example).

The Avatar of Death and Summon Hive count as Tier 8.

I want to say the Summoned Phoenix is also a Tier 8, but I can't find anything to back that up conclusively.

Double-click the Phoenix in the ATB bar, and you can see what tier it is.
(I recently discovered that double-clicking shows info about the clicked unit.)

Based on the table, I would assume that the Summoned Phoenix is level 8, because otherwise a level 21 hero can kill the full-health phoenix in one hit, and I've never seen that happening. Plus, that would weaken the spell to the point of being useless.

Hey thanks guys,

That about explains it. Very helpful, especially Tensho's chart.

BTW, Tensho, I like your avatar. At first glance I thought it was some sort of orchid, then I looked closer and realised I had slipped up!
