| well that's true :D... |
i did a spawn battle :)
We managed to get 206 spawns on the battle field, including the gated we managed to
get 323 spawns on the entire battle field.

| lol, was that a special event? very funny |
| no more demon clan now... |
| what position shuld I take for ambushing? |
Soon i'll reach lvl 8 and have enough gold (i guess) to build asap incendiaries... until now there weren't many options for troops (max wolves and spawns then succubi) but at lvl 8 i have seen different dispositions (max incend... less spawns or less wolves or less succubi... balance them without max incend and so on)... before i'll able to test myself the best combination i'd like to have some suggestions on incendiaries (dmg of fire spells for example) and what're the best options on different types of battles...
i haven't seen a great deal with max incendiaries... they do dmg and so on but are really slow... and for ambushes i (probably we all) based all on fast attack... the "new" plan is let succubi take aggro then destroy dangerous enemies? isn't clear why max incediaries is better for ambushes (cuz there fast attacks are always best chance to deal with caravans and in pvp)...
Sorry for the "big" question, ty if someone wanna share a bit of experience with me :) |

i used to think like that, too. thieving is just about dealing fast attack. but the more i play, the more i realize that thieving is more than just that. of course you need to attack fast in order to win an ambush, but you also have to stay alive till the end of the game. incends give you the chance to do that. they deal a massive amount of damage (although theyre slow) without the risk of being targeted first in combat. im sure you've experienced that u're spawn / wolf die too quick because the enemy target them first (i think spawn is targeted first before wolf). at lvl 8, ur big stack consist of incend, hellhorse, and wolf. spawns are just retal taker, and succubus are just there to attract the fire from the enemy's archer. when dealing with a big stack of monster with unlimited retal (like modern golem or griff), without incend ure surely loose..
just my 2 cents ;p |
so around 10 or less spawns to split... take retal and raise incendiaries attack? and better wolves than spawns? this way i lose that drain mana that is really usefull... this worry me really a lot :/...
the aggro order is like this: succubi then spawns then wolves atm... surely incendiaries will be the last :)
So i could recruit: max incend, max horses... around 20-30 wolves (?), around 10 succubi, around 10 spawns... ? something like this should work? and i can change with less wolves or 5 horses with a bit more spawns and succubi for example... enough clear, ty ^^
Just isn't clear the special fire ability... what dmg a single incend do? i saw it's around a normal attack but not so sure... it can be used only once x battle, right?
btw i have seen a few battles in pvp of lvl 8-9 demons... with huge stack of demons ofc... and incredible... demon doesn't die for first :D |
yeah, i leave that Magic path since i hit lvl 8 ;p just try and improvise.
about that flame attack, a stack of 1 incend will deal 8 damage to all units surround it.
when u add the number of incend in that stack, the damage will increase in non-linear way (eg. 2 incend will do less than 16 damage).
i usually used that as a last resort, to prevent from getting retal.
the damage is low compared to its normal attack (except when dealing with high-def units), but sometimes it helps n.n |
oh ok so it's similar to druids magic dmg (just for example)... more incend less dmg compared to what a singol one can do...
i thought was the great deal of using incendiaries (vs caravans, to kill with a single action a lot of small stacks) but probably it's really a last resort if we are lucky to have a lot of enemies around them...
ty for the infos, less than 5k and i'll have a new toy to fight with ^^ |
no more demon clan now...
=[ no one was conmited to the clan. |

now is clear why is better to use incendiaries in ambush :) finally i'll not be scared anymore of elves caravans ^^ |
| nice n.n they make ur clean-up job more easy rite, lol.. |
| why are on high level incendries bad choice? |
| probably because at higher lvl is more important first strike... at lvl 8-9 hardly enemies can kill the full stack of incendiaries... instead at lvl 10+ a stacks of efk or shrews can kill em all before you can move at all (1-2 hits)... so better to max cerberi (fast, great dmg and multiple hits) and horses (fastest troop, work in the end as a kamikaze vs shrews)... at least i guess ^^ |
why are on high level incendries bad choice?
i think because there slow and at lvl 8+ you must be quick because the shrews (: |
| I see... :D |
definitively god bless incendiaries :D

(this end the "discussion" on incendiaries usefulness, at least for me :) ) |
