The Heroes Round Table

:D I didn't intend to surprise you Good suggstions for online but also for solo are always welcome. About being online player... Recently I had only played with friends in hostel, maybe just a bit solo (few chalenging campaigns/scenarios). Anyway the maps and strategies got far more different from w...

Thanks for your replies. I'm glad you find some of ideas acceptable. I'd like to have better options to test them practically in order to strike the right balance, but I lack programming skills, so I wish we could polish those overpowered together. But to some point we could agree, that non-magic co...

I guess you mean hero editing window. But it could be implemented also in map properties. Moreover, instead of letters like D, L, etc how about a colourful highlighting? (a glimpse is faster to verify magic school than checking the letters) This solution I've seen in a hero editing tool (don;t remem...

Mantis

the model looks better IMO. Also I like idea of big mantis as unit more than of flying serpent.

Phoenixfeather Cloak:
Hero has Rebirth ability and has Rebirth spell (12 mana)

this way our hero won't die as long as he/she has enough spell points

Great pics. And it's just a fraction of all new goodies. I didn't expected so many adv_map objects to be created.

Waiting for release. Good job Eq Team.

I don't remember my choices in Standard, I'm playing only Eq: Pikeman He's faster and has quasi-No Retaliation Crusader (65%) - Monk (35%) His pre is Blacksmith. Besides stronger and faster (sometimes too good in Eq) Champion (60%) - Angel (40%) Cheaper pre, especially when you have Crusaders. Stabl...

first you need new Equilibris to be released :) And Wizhga, idea about making 1st and 2nd lev creatures more stratrgically useful is intersting but magic guilds are too expensive. Note you need 15 skills to use GM spells. Oh, and increased weekly growth for 1st and 2nd would be necessary since you w...

New Equilibris is going to be released soon, but it doesn't seem to be final and as many wrote there will be probably 3.7 Playing all this time with diffrent guys I've figured out how adv classes should actually work in the game. Bonuses shouldn't be complicated. It looks like they should neither be...

better move for nigthmar to 26, same for licorne and champion the second is more vampire growth (3 to 4 / week), cheaper (1100 to 950) same for ghost, cheaper (4000 to 3000- 3500) decrease the xp dark champion (1000 to 850-900).......to have more of them . Agree, and... Monk: 60hp (now 55) & ad...

Intersting. Having unique archmages would be awesome but in some cases even too powerful. Consider dark priest with combat and +20% to magic...

-> Would it be possible to make spells (character-hero screen/ menu spells) to appear in the spellbook regardless of the magic skills? -> Could this be added also in script "Give spell"? example: level 5 Barb with Vampire Touch & Summon Mantis Since the editor modifies heroes in differ...

to klaymen: I was thinking about necro. library for mages and alchemist shop for golems, but it requires some changes in other factions to keep the balance. Otherwise, academy would be the slowest developing town (about 5k gold only for dwelling 2's requirements). However I'm going to try to work ou...

No magic school is inferior to other ones, but each one is different, what has been already mentioned. Even on pure RPG-maps with single hero Death is powerful if you play well death-style (different from life- or nature-style). However, it took me some time to get used to that style since I'm more ...

Nature has Dragon Strength. What about Chaos lev5 "Dragon Flame":
Target unit gains ability Arch Breath like Mega Dragon (it's also Fire Attack like Fire.E) . Unlike hydra's Multiple Attack it could be a double edged sword.

Level 5 :Frenzy Description:Greatly increases the friendly target's attack skill, movement and speed, but severely decreases the defense skill. Duration: 1 round. Effect: The attack skill is multiplied by 4. The speed is increased by 5, the movement is increased by 5, The defense skill is divided b...

In H4 there's option to replay turn but only adv. map moves.

IMO your proposal to save battle replays is very good.
As for format I'd prefere not .avi, because converting extracted standard intro made it 1GB size And some battles are sure longer.

Let's wait what Eq Team will say.

1500 is fair price for the effect.

As for issue of 7th faction - NO. Impossible to make without source code, plus it requires tons of animations, etc. Better would be stabilizing factions: Life: protections + resurrection Order: control + counters Death: curses + dead manipulation Chaos: devastative magic + brutal strike Nature: stre...

Something about Necromancy, Summoning and other stuff: -Necromancy skill is weaker than normal but don't underestimate it. Maybe +20% would satisfy Metathron, but still balance the game. -Summoning skill gives only Nature-aligned units. No mixing with other factions or demons. (Demon Summon spells a...
