| Author | Any way to stop that useless Thief-fights from that game? |
|---|
What "fun" is given to this game with Thief-fights?
A complete Level 8/9 with Arts massacres an unequipped Level 6/7 player. Boring fight. Only for some gold.
The "Fun"-factor grows, when u start walking over the map, leaving computer for 15 minutes, coming back seeign -2 on Luck, cause of Thief-Fight.
Sorry, in my opinion the most worthless "gift" of this game. |
well obviously u don't look in2 it, it gives u a major edge.

i saw many times how 6 lvl in arts win against lvl 8 thief in arts.
6 lvl gain up to 42 monks in help. With good defense its hard to kill them. So, this is just other tipes of battles.
Dont walk away when you are going to other location - its just 2 min. Unable sound - it'll show you that fight has started. And wear full art when go - for win, or dont wear anithing if you think you cant win. |
To answer your question:
Yes, there is a way to stop thieves ambushing you. Simply travel with health below 40%, and no thief will be able to ambush you. |
let me correct you guys, it isnt thief ambush... theives wont show themselve to victim. they will only do their job sneaky, in stealth.
only robbers will jump out, intercept and attack victim LOL
well, even with monk assist, it doesnt mean you are sure win. i lose a fight even with 9 monks in team when encounter lv 9. that's totally out numbered :( |
consider being ambushed as a free way to gain some xp and skillpoints, ye do only lose the time to work out the battle, yer army is 100% afterwards, yer mana is full, yer skelton reserve did not dimish.
but ye do gain some xp and skill and who knows, ye might win as well. |
| I think if we meet some thieves .. than will waste our durability of arts ... just waste time too ... |
What? You got ambushed?
So, you had a free fight? Where you could gain 1,000 XP in case of victory and 100 XP in case of defeat, and about 0.8 free skill points to boot? Not costing you any health nor mana? For a 60 gold loss if you lost?
Wow I'm moved - how unlucky you are![/sarcasm]
If you consider fights as a waste of time, perhaps you should not leave the Tavern =) |
@Kotrin.
Some folks arent happy for 0.04 skill points when they are ambushed wo any chance.
Some folks arent happy, to get -2 on luck cause they dont stare whole time on monitor while moving.
Its not a big problem, but this isnt the complete game. Its only waste of time. |
if someone gain 0.04 skill points - than he(she) didnt make some good damadge and so - battle ends for 1-2 minutes.
if gain -2 luck... You come to play, lets play. Travelling between locations - 2-3 minutes. You spend much more time to battles, try to spend some time to travel and be near computer. Btw, i always try to prevent of gaining -2 luck by victim, if i can.
So - it is a chance to get some xp and skill points, and pvp even if you dont want it :P |
| Last time i was fighting an elf with EFk 42 i think. i was using rouges because i was battling a slow monster. forgot to switch back. had no art. I tried to block the monsters from rouges so i can attack then come back but. efk came in critical. bam 30 rouges gone 3 minos gone and 2 lizards gone. then his sprites came and then i had 15 minos 5 lizards left. lizard charged the efk. came back with luck. kill lizard and 8 mino left they were all taken care by the elven and druids.... and i probably got .04 skill points. |
A great fun fight

12, 14
you and your partners were without arts. And thiefs are always in full or almost full art. If knight have good def, then efk are not so effective.
And why are you used yours stacks of 1 unit to attack? And that attack was on efk. You grouped around them, and they deal much more damadge.
If thief 8 lvl meet 2x7 lvls in arts then thief usually lose. |
| only time i won a thief ambush was when the thief was afk and dropped dead after taking 5 turns before i could even move my troops. Very nice xp/skill gain that was. |
Well i just got owned by mangablanco.... http://www.heroeswm.com/warlog.php?warid=471940031
i might have won if he didn't have 3rd tier up. |
