Spells

[Thelonious]

like 40 of them

[Gaidal Cain]

Oh. That's an interesting twist. And I guess that by advancing in mastery of the Magic School Skills that area gets larger and larger?

Not quite. Every Magic Skill (Destruction, Summoning, Lighht and Dark) has three abilities. Each of those boost two spells. Most of them do that by giving the player an "extra" spell- same as the basic one, with twice the cost and a 3x3 area. Advancing the skill increases the effect of the spell

I'd like to see a gravity [aura] spell. This spell would make the enemies army slower afoot and a-wing etc and decrease the damage in melee attacks since the weapons are heavier. Also shooters ranges could be decreased somewhat. At higher skill levels this Grav Spell also lightens the Hero using it up to the point of flying in the air in battles.Hurry

But shouldnt it make some melee attacks stronger?Hammers,axes,etc.

[ThunderTitan]

More likely it should give them DOMS.

How do some of,lets say less usefull,spels like mine and quicksand work?Is the dumb randomness of HIII back?

Good question, I never understood those spells and rarely used them. I think I tried planting a mine on the enemy's drawbridge once, but then *somehow* they knew that it was there and *just happened* to decide to cross the moat area instead of going over the bridge...I'll swear it wasn't because of a shorter distance...

Anyway, I wish mass spells were still in rather than area effect. Oh well. And Hurry's idea about a gravity spell is interesting. Would it be that an area of the battlefield is gravity-ized, or that certain units are? Could be fun.

Haven't seen Quicksand, but Land Mine placement works like in H3, but the smaller field makes it a bit more useful.

Its still stupid.Why isnt it under your control like in HIV?Quicsand is actually a very powerful spell against walkers.Even more powerful than slow.

Yeah it was a pretty irritating spell, especially when there are alot of obstacles on the battlefield.

I think you put it well enough yourself:
You didn't honestly believe that that feature was gonna make its way around the strict "Ban HIV" law?

I say we start a referendum to get the law changed.

Wow! That was actually a very good idea, so yeah why not?

Ok, what's all this about? I don't understand what "law" you're talking about.

[Gaidal Cain]

The one that says that everything that was in H4 and not in the other games is evil and must be avoided lest it would destroy H5.

[DaemianLucifer]

The directive 2006/delayed also known as the ubisoft law

Oh, that law...
Well then... Keep heroes on the battlefield!
