[Kilop]

fallen angel is gooooood, I want it , I want it now, with benediction, it is gg...

[Mytical]

Bendiction, bless, frenzy, and counterstrike and this thing would be near unstoppable. Since it is supposed to drain life pretty much like a vamp it would be scary, very scary. .

[asandir]

indeed, I would prefer not to meet it at all!

[Kilop]

I wonder if renegades benefit from haven s specials, and can be in a haven army ...?

[asandir]

you would imagine there would be some penalties if they can

[Kashrlyyk]

Mentoring (Enlightenment)
When this hero meets another friendly hero, the latter gains as much experience as he or she needs to have his or her experience become equal to 25 percent of that of the mentor's (this is only effective if that hero has less experience originally).

Fast leveling of all your heroes.

[BoardGuest808888]

You can get as many level 10 heroes as you want with one level 30 hero even after there're no longer creeps around. Rather unbalanced in an XL map I think.

[asandir]

nice bonus if you get it, but I agree that it could be unbalancing

[theGryphon]

You can get as many level 10 heroes as you want with one level 30 hero even after there're no longer creeps around. Rather unbalanced in an XL map I think.

Actually, with a level 30 hero you can create an army of level 24 heroes!
And it gets even worse with hero level:
level 31 --> 27
level 33 --> 30
level 35 --> 33

Freakish!

[Ya5MieL]

But with dwarven heroes having low might skills, it could get more balanced (magma dragon defense)... i never expected a dwarf hero starting with 0,1,2,2...

[ecsunotos]

Fortress is an almost balance town, tend to be defensive town due to low init & speed creatures w/ high HP.
Their spell caster and shooter are not for attacking purposes. Their cavalry units are not a very fast one (mediocre speed)- altough have an above average initiative - which is not suitable for charging. But their level 6 unit can be used as a cavalry, their speed quiet good with high init & HP, sending havoc to enemy rank! Level 7 obviously for defending their shooter/spell caster.
In whole game, they are not over or underpower. Remember that they use rune magic, in early game they need more resources than other factions. IMO they will have a slow progress of building their town. But if they can survive until they have level 6 or 7 creature. Their power may not be underestimated
How d u think?

[Amis]

Yuo say that fortrees seems to be overpowered, but what about other factions.
Inferno got improvent to gating in 1.4.
Is there any changes to other 5 factions?

[Sir_Toejam]

while the kind folks of CH are putting together the new skill trees, I'm just now going through the data files to see what the requirements are for the perks listed earlier.

[okrane]

the ultimate IMO is even stronger than Sylvan's.... I mean... should a sylvan hero and a dwarf hero both having the ultimates fight... the sylvan hero could not get lucky attacks, while the dwark might...

Mentoring is sooooo bizare IMO... free experience... expecially with the non-linear growth of experience needed for levels... I mean... you don't have to worry because you can lose your level 27 hero, because you have a good backup... not to mention castle defenders are really efective... So I would say that this is not so fair.

Snatch also sounds strong...
Distract is a spell caster killer... also kind of strong...

What spell schools do dwarves have in their town? Is the dwarven hero a strong spellcaster(i.e. lots of spellpower?)

[Mytical]

Sounds like mentoring is a must for main hero, but secondary heroes can all meet up with the main so not really neccessary for the secondary . Yes this skill is a bit much. There are a lot of problems I see with that ultimate and Sylvans ultimate...if Sylvan always gets lucky strikes, but Dwarves force everybody to get unlucky strikes... this can not coincide. Maybe cause bugs or abnormalities?

[okrane]

well they say they nullify each other... but the way I understand is that a sylvan hero cannot get lucky strikes, only normal ones, whereas a dwarf can get lucky strikes... so I guess dwarves are in advantage here...

[Mytical]

If they nulify why would the elves not be able to get lucky strikes? Since Elven Luck and Deadmans luck are prerequisites for the elven ultimate, they should have the base +3 luck and give -2 luck to the dwarves...or am I missing something?
