A magic based dark party that I made that I thought was pretty awesome was DDSS. The druids get +3 to all magic skills after you become warlocks and get the dragon, and that is in addition to any various "of magic" items. The sorcs when they become liches become immune to mind and body mag...

I'll say MM6 because you don't even have to be master or even expert to learn it. Even though you can't choose the town at low level its still useful for quickly getting back to the fountain in center of town.
Also isn't it level 12 required for MM6, not 10?

I don't know my favorite because I have not played all the MMs. I only played through 6, 7, & 8 completely, and I only am at about just under half way through MM3 and Xeen I have not started. This was posted in the other thread but its a good example of why MM7 is definitely NOT my favorite: The...

Whats so great about him? I don't recall that he have very great starting stats. Not much better than Overdune (the guy that joins you as the witness).
Also doesn't Volog join you after you find the troll home? So he's not that easy to get.

I tend to use only hirelings that are close to the level of the main character. Otherwise arena battles become extremely difficult, as the enemies there seem chosen depending on the highest level character in the party... Me too, but not because of the arena but just more for balance. Like if you g...

for alchemy Do you really mix black and white potions? How often? Isn't it easier to buy them instead? I actually do prefer to make them myself over buying them if one of my chars can. I find it more annoying having to buy them all from shops cause you got to keep reloading until they got the ones ...

but definitely a time limit. Yeah, both game time and also a painful load of real time too. I don't care that much about how hard promotion quests are, if I want certain members for a party I choose them. If I want a certain party makeup sometimes druids are the only option for getting town portal ...

Yeah the game is pretty open, you have lots of choices at mostly any point in what you want to do. After you bring that troll witness to Alvar your next mainline quest will be to form the alliances. The first one I always do is the minotaurs because then you can town-portal to their lair, which is a...

Yes I hear you ShadowLiberal, and agree. Also: I was just reading somewhere else where a person said that the newer Heroes of MM like 5 & 6 were made for kids. I think that is definitely true too. Also with a lot of the newer games of today; they seem to be made for kids, or at least not for peo...

I find it neat that this forum is even active at all considering most of the topics are on games from up to around 20 years ago. The new mm heroes 6 is basically just an attempt to milk something great and just another product to sell and thus it is not as genuine and thats why it is not as successf...

Ok I am at the point right now where I think I should quit this crappy snes version and go with the pc version. From what I see it looks to be so much better and probably a much more enjoyable experience.

I still can not buy at the shops, even when I have space in inventory and way more gold than required for the item. Maybe do I have to have nothing equipped? I'm thinking that this copy of the game I have might be bugged, I'm playing it from an snes emulator. I also cannot seem to get detect magic s...

Started MM3

So I've started MM3 on the snes. I'm sure its better as the pc version but I don't know where to get that. I'd like to start world of xeen too later on but I don't how I'm going to get it... At first it was hard to get into because I didn't know where to go or what the heck to do. But now after play...

Of course the heroes from Heroes 2, 3, and 4 look the coolest. They are good except Jeddite I think looks too thin, I didn't really like Lord Haart's portrait, and Tazar could be a little better I think (in terms of not over-exaggerated like the how the new heroes are). The descriptions were fine to...

Yay for the lizard warriors. I always liked them better.
Its funny that the marksmen will run out of shots if the battle goes on long and then they will be forced to walk over.

I also take large gaps of not playing for months but always come back to them every once and a while. During university (I've graduated some years ago) I didn't play heroes that much but did play a few other games. One I remember in particular was Diablo 2. I would often play pc games when I got hom...

Are curse, feeblemind, etc., completely useless?

Whenever I cast spells like curse and feeblemind on enemies they never seem to do anything. Do they do anything? As an example, I've tried many times casting feeblemind and curse on creatures such as druids, harpies, fire archers, etc. and they continue to throw spells at me not seeming to be effect...
