Hey,
I don't get how cerberis' spread attack works.
Look at this battle:
https://www.lordswm.com/warlog.php?warid=494001304<=-1
I attacked 13 succubi on 12:6 to get cerberi and 2 succubi stacks with one hit. Instead of this I hit cave demons.
Is there any chance to plan spread attack better? |
nope, it is random
But if you aimed at the cerberi, you had succubi+succubi+cerberi |
"Spray:
This creature attacks 3 tiles in a row or those forming a corner,"
Does anybody has example that is random. Because if program checks row first it will always be row. |
| Thanks Sven. |

This is a big problem for me too. The logic states that if you attack at 12:6 in that battle, you should bite succubi and 2 other stacks near those succubi and in front of your cerberi. So it should have been succubi+ cerberi and succubi.
What Sven91 said is right, but it seems illogical that cerberi would use 2 of his heads to attack in front, and the third head to attack in a 90 degree angle. Maybe a bug in the "spray" program ?
On another note, is there a way to see the order of you attacking units more in "the future" ? |
Nutella you should aim cerberi and this wouldnt happen. Its not allways random, here is some mechanics:

| Vidlak666 is right. But it still bothers me that aiming 2 and 3 is random. In situation like this it should be that aiming the middle one would hit that stack and 1 on each side... |

its all true but what if we add "5" tile just below number 5, and aiming for example in 3? [1,2,3 or 2,3,4 or 3,4,5] ?
isnt any predictible hits by cerberi in that case? |
#8
if you mean this
123
ox4
oo5
Where x is cerberi and o is empty tile. Aiming 3 would probably hit 2,3,4 as it is much more obvious you want to hit creaters in the corner, but usually this situation is rare to have 3 more important enemy on 2,3,4 and some no threat stacks on 1 and 5. So normally you would choose row 1,2,3 or 3,4,5 depending on in which row is the most threatfull enemy creature:) |
you are still right, but what if i want hit EXACTLY 2,3 and 4? just pure luck?
i wonder someday cerberi aim will be highlighted like lorekeepers is after update... |
| Better next time aim the cerberis .. and u will get Cerbs + 2 succus ... :) |
| I'm pretty sure that if above situation happens cerberi hits 2,3,4 if aiming 3. PenTus definitely a good idea about highlighting... it would be even more necessary for hydras :) |

Great ideea. Can Artic do this ? |
| Ok, just tried that situation described above with 5 stacks around and I aimed the corner one (3), the result not promising... it hited 3,4,5 so it's not working as it should :( Definitely something for the next update, what do you think Arctic? |

xD
+1 for fix this |

I missed this comment. This never happened. Cerberis attack allways row so all heads front or corner so 1 hed front, 1 left and 1 right. |
| what is best recruiting and talents on 8 lvl?racial lvl 6 might biuld |
talent is offence, luck, battlefury.
recruiting priority: hellhorse, incend, wolf, succubi, spawn. I usually use this setup for TG, quest and hunt. i didn't do pvp at that lvl :p |
for dedengkot:
interesting)thats the way i played)but i prefer to thieveing in min AP)and for demon it's socts higher cause of amulet of luck instead of medal or bravery)anyway thx for advice) |
| Is striving speed a viable option for demons lvl 11? Had some nice experience with it in some pvp fights in the last minor tournament but not sure how it could be used successfull in mercenary quests, ambushes and hunts. |
