| Author | Can anyone explain this damage reduction of invoker's ability? |
|---|
Example 1:
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?lt=-1&warid=720268296
87 invokers, enemy has 2 stacks (43-44 each)
Hero has 12 defense so cerberi has 18 defense
Invoker's ability dealt 400-500 damage on cerberi
Example 2:
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?lt=-1&warid=761080476
98 invokers, enemy has 2 stacks (49 each)
Hero has 14 defense so cerberi has 20 defense
Maybe he wears the forest cloak that gives 15% dmg reduction
Invoker's ability only dealt 100 damage on cerberi |
Another similar example to the first one:
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?lt=-1&warid=760533336
113 invokers, enemy has 2 stacks
I used forest cloak and still has 12 defense
Damage dealt to succubus is 500, damage dealt to cerberi that defense is 370 |
Post #1 : indeed, very interesting difference between you and that russian. Don't see why.
Post #2 : that one can be explained. Invoker damage range is 9-14, so you could get a max hit on succus and a min one on cerbs. |

Sorry, made a typo, i should've said "damage dealt to cerberi that DEFENDS", the cerberi got lesser damage due to the extra defense
I made that post just to show another example that seems normal like the first example |
Seems like it might be a glitch, and I may have managed to reproduce it, by putting the cerberi in the corner
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?lt=-1&warid=762698147
Invokers deal 181 damage to Cerberi. 12 perish.
Invokers deal 162 damage to Cerberi. 10 perish.
The difference between the two battles that I posted first is that his cerberi is on the corner, which probably what made the difference |
Very interesting test.
Definitely worth submitting to the Errors / Bug section. Any ideas, from others ? |
It seems not only the first attack is glitched out, all the subsequent attacks are also becoming weak
Compare the previous two hunts I posted, which have the same amount of creatures and stack (113, 2 stacks):
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?lt=-1&warid=760533336
(Not putting cerberi in corner, invoker's regular attack deals 1000+ damage)
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?lt=-1&warid=762698147
(Put cerberi in corner, invoker's regular attack deals 300-400+ damage) |
Definitely worth submitting to the Errors / Bug section.
If the admins actually read this forums :p
Someone might be interested in translating it for the russian forums, and all the .com players might try to abuse the glitch as long as it hasn't been fixed yet :p |
Wow great find! And apparently the guy in your example also knew this... this is very interesting.
Next time try to use tactics and EXACTLY copy his troop settlement, I'm curious if the damage would further reduce as his damages seemed even lower. |
| Nvm my last comment, forgot this time there were more invokers. I am really curious though if it works for other factions or other enemy creatures... |
I just remembered, on my first 113 invokers battle, i put my succubi in the corner, yet no damage reduction
So, for some reason it only works on cerberi
for randomr1: Doubt he knows it beforehand, seems like just a coincidence since he plays carelessly |
for sareth:
Lol but his strategy would have been badly wrecked if he didn't know this beforehand xD |
Oh well, I posted this on the russian bugs forum, let's see if anything interesting going to happen
http://www.heroeswm.ru/forum_messages.php?tid=2445908 |
tried another attempt, got the same formation of 2 stacks, and my troops used the exact same starting position as my previous bugged attempt
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?lt=-1&warid=766729050
damage now is huge as usual, no longer bugged somehow, maybe it somehow got fixed? |
