Wizard hero evolution

[UndeadHalfOrc]

H2 Wizard. Starts with Advanced Wisdom and the Stone Skin spell.


H3 Wizard (used for male Alchemists in battle as well)


H4 Mage (female & male). Isn't there already a unit called Mage? Confusing.

H5 Wizard

Voted H3 Wizard. He looks like a Wizard should be, nice robe to

[PhoenixReborn]

A rare instance where 3 looks better than 2.

[Corlagon]

Sylas from Heroes IV rocks, he's got my vote. Nice mix of red and blue colours and creative animations overall.

Gonna go with the only girl in the lineup … the Heroes IV Mage. Although, I always wondered if she didn't get just a bit cold running around in the snow wearing only that sleeveless dress. Oh well, maybe she has a secret 'warming' spell.

This is rare instance where a H3 hero looks good, in fact the best overall.

[Milla aka. the Slayer]

H4 female mage for sure. Just cause I love all the females in H4 - they rock
Especially Daremyth is cool!

[Darmani]

I don't think H3's looks particularly good, but it's better than everything else. My second choice would be H4 male.

[Ethric]

I'm sticking to my "H2 unless proven otherwise"-rule. Otherwise not proven this time either

[asandir]

H3 for me

H2... not very original, but there's a reason why the "Odin look" has withstood the test of time...

Also, maybe these polls should also include the portrait the hero is based on, coz that was a pretty cool thing H4 did. And H5 kinda tried... i think.

Find them for me and I'll edit my original posts. Already included Mayweda for H4 Sorceress (Warlock)

As for Heroes 1 and 2 ... some are not obvious at all. Barbarian is Thundax, Knight is Sir Gallant... what about the rest?

[Metathron]

HoMM III is half decent at last, but not much more than that. Don't really see where all the praise is coming from.

HoMM V is good and very different, but I don't like that it has no neck, apparently. And I don't like how they photoshopped a real person's face (or tried to made it more life-like) into it, or whatever.

HoMM IV female, nice but nothing to write home about.

So for me, it's between HoMM II and IV male, and I'll give it to II. I like my wizards to be elderly with lush white beards. Knowing I grew up with Bakshi's The Lord of the Rings cartoon, you can see why.

Someone asked for the Heroes IV lookalike portraits -

[Dracomancer]

H2. Classic!

[Mirez]

h3 for sure
and I hate the way the elephant is animated in h5 (it moves both left legs then both right legs then both left etc.)

Dammit, someone else who doens't remember my name... i've been slipping...

[Milla aka. the Slayer]

Well, you haven't been around much lately. Why is that anyway?

[Corlagon]

I didn't forget your name, just didn't bother writing it.

@blue eyes

That's so nice of you to say... you better not be lying or i' kill you!
