i looked around but didnt find info on these questions:
1. why can heroes defend? whats to gain on that?
2. is the game team working on lvl 15 or is the game sort of over after you reach 14 and eventually get bored?
thx :) |
1. It's just there... no gain.
2. When there will be enough players that would be level 15 if it would be implemented, they would probably add it. |

First you need to reach this 14 lvl...

Nothing. |
1) It is a way to pass 1 turn rather then waiting and passing 0.5 turns.
2) Of course they are. I am sure by the time people like you and me get to level 12-13, this game would even have lvl 16 as the max. (Just a probability! xD) |
1. There is no real use for a hero to defend.
2. Hopefully level 15 will be introduced when there are enough players with the required experience to use it. It is no fun for someone to be the only player at a new level. |

Adding to that,
By now there are not even 10 players that have got enough xp to get to level 15 . . . |
| There are already 6 players in virtual 15 lvl and 4 players are very close, so combat lvl 15 could be already implemented. I remember MasterTI as one and only lvl 14 and nobody cared about his loneliness:) |

Lvl 15 will be a boring level like lv13
the only implementation is that u can buy with diamonds the upgrade for tier 6
at lv 16 you can buy it with gold
On russian server they introduced only lv 15 (strange thing isn't it :D)
About the levels i think at lv 17 we will got upgraded tier 7 with diamonds
and at lv 18 with gold :P |

I hope the game does :) |
| Here is my theory on why hero's can defend.... Say you are fighting ghosts or apps and they have two misses. If you wait with the hero, the hero will still have another turn before your slow stack of say guardians gets to move. So instead of having to push wait twice you can press defend once. |

Interessting. So if you are at a hunt and the last stack of battle griffin just dive to attack you later. You can't attack this monster. What will you do? |

You could just wait.
Theortically, like Alec125, I think that the only real use of defend is to save time --> instead of hitting 2 'waits', you only need to hit 1 'defend', and even then it isn't very practical, for 2 reasons:
1) It might be better to use 'wait', since what if something unexpected happens?
2) If you have mana recovery, using wait restores 2 mana instead of 1.
Therefore, I suspect admins implemented 'wait' on a hero in order to make people regret making mistakes when, say, they accidentally hit 'defend' instead of 'wait'. |
by defend u get +3 defence and ur chance passes.
its just till lvl 14 |

Not true, as defence increased is by 30%, not 3.
Quoted from help:
Defend: Orders your stack to take defensive position. If you choose to defend, the stack's defense increases by 30%. For characters, this button is equivalent to passing a turn, as it is impossible to attack a lord. |
| ...And this is for troops, not the hero. The hero can't be attacked in any way. |
I remember MasterTI as one and only lvl 14
i registered in the game a week or two before MasterTI (lol). when i stopped playing (august 2008, for professional reasons) i was lvl 4, and the top players were lvl 9 or 10 i think... i remember wondering how the game would evolve. now that im back, i see it evolved pretty well, and i just wish there would be more info on what the plans are to take it further (will there be new creatures, new abilities, new guilds, new arts, etc etc)
as for the defend option for the hero, i think it should enhance the defence of your defending troops in 10% or so (adding to the 30%). for instance, if you only have a stack you would get an extra element of strategy for the hero (either attack an enemy stack or help the defending units). at the very least the defend button wouldnt seem like an overlooked aspect of the game as it is right now |
