AuthorMerc Quests for beginners
Hello, I have a couple of questions about the merc quests of us beginner players, that have trouble with most of the questst... Other then couple of conspiracy quests, all I can do are Vanguard quests, all others are too strong for me...

But even the Vanguard quests are hard for me, so I though I should ask here a couple of questions because I keep loosing these:

Vanguard of Demons
-there are those two huge Devils with extreme hit points and huge damage that manage to kill my troops very easy...
-is it normal to have this much trouble with them as level 5-6 ?
-what tactic is good, I try to hit them with Druids and archers, but there's no way to kill them before they kill me...

Vanguard of Necromancers
-there are just too many Apparitors, and due to their ability I miss them really alot, and it is hard to kill them all, and not to mention behind them are two stacks of 10 Vamps I think...
-so what would be good strategy for this quest?

Vanguard of Elves
-what is good strategy for this quest, since Druids focus on killing my Archers and then kill Gargoyles that I need to protect... if I focus on Druids those Elite Forest Keepers come and kill extreme numbers of my troops protecting Garg and Archers...
-should I focus on Elite Forest Keepers first or Druids? what is good?
Most quests are really hard at level 5-6, and should probably be passed until later levels. (Or try them and fail, to get a hang of what they're about.)

The mercenary guild is supposed to be hard, so it's not surprising if you fail some of them at your current level. Especially the Demons and Necromancer vanguards you mentioned. The Demons and Appas are just awesomely hard at your level. Vanguards of elves should be doable, but you need lots of luck and tactics.

As for tactical advice, I'm going to leave that to someone more experienced at playing elf. ;)

Good luck!
Take a look there before starting the mission to be sure it s doable for you :

Good luck.
i think you can do it after you got EFK, battle-dance is good against vanguard of Necro,Elf.for demon fist you need to kill 3 head dog:)with fk/efk then devil(dark witch will cast D-ray on one of the devil stack)with archer+druid(for doing this you need more troops,that will give you by fort upgrade in castle)
as mohini said,efk play an important role in vanguard of elf and necro due to their battledance.
for demon,i advise you to try after reaching levl 8 at least since you attack wont deal much damage to the devil
You can do also low tier creature raids (skeletons, gremlins etc). Do not try yet any monster.

Maybe some armies are also possible with more then one try. Have a look at the linked witchhammer site to check if you feel ready for it.

As a general advice I would suggest you to do only easy quests from the beginning and pass by the harder ones, regardless of reputation. Else you will face many hard quests in the later game and have to pass by all the time. It's quite frustating to travel to YL 10 times a day and get only one quest which is doable in minimum AP.
