for Pankaj_Kalra21:
You did that & got a perfect score?? |
What? Only 6 out of 9... ://
I swear their answers are mistaken, I dont think I missed that much... :P
I doubt about these a lil' bit:
A lord with Shadow dragons faces a lord with Minotaur soldiers in a duel. What will the Minotaurs` morale be?
0
Impossible to say
3
2
I said "Cant really know".
Normally "3", because Bravery really denies the Shadow Dragon Aura, but maybe the DE has Expert Morale and makes the Mino have 4, so you cant really know.

How many upgraded creatures of an Unholy Necromancer can attack an enemy stack in a duel and not take retaliation? Consider any possible situation, but the retaliation has not yet been taken and the target stack doesn`t perish after attack on it.
5
2
7
3
I said 5...
Counting Skele with Stun, Polter with Miss, Dread with Sleep, Demilich's Ranged, and Envoy's Death Aura thing, but some of them are really tricky, IDK if they count.

What of these Talents dont affect the triggering chance of Knocking Shot of Grandmaster Bowmen?
Vitality
Rally
Soldier's Luck
Verdant Wrath
I said Verdants Wrath, coz Vitality increases Hp and modifies the Formula, Soldier's Luck obviously does change the chance, and Rally of course because more GMB.
Verdant does not because the chance is calculated BEFORE the attack, so the Damage of the shot does not affect (Well, it changes the chances of SECOND shot because you did more damage with the first, but not both shots).

What do you guys think about these?
The questions were really intelligent though, I would do more of these every day, sad you can only do it once per year :P
I had fun answering those.
Sorry for long message btw XD |
I said "Cant really know".

Polter with Miss
This counts as retal |

What is the biggest damage percentage that an elf creature stack can get towards any one target of melee attack through luck and favoured enemy?
325%
225%
300%
400% |
325%
i think. Luck + crit is 300. Extra 25% from talent. |
i think. Luck + crit is 300. Extra 25% from talent.
how is the luck and critical effect calculated? isn't it 225%*2000%=450%? |
How many creature abilities can increase their attack in any way?
10
6
8
4 |
If damage with luck is 200, then crit makes it 300 Because crit is applied on base damage which is 100.
normal damage = 100; Damage with crit = 200; damage with luck = 200; damage with luck and crit 300. |
for virtual_vitrea:
So is the answer 300 or 325? |
325 with elven luck talent. |
what is the answer to range penalty question
What does "Range penalty" mean?
Creatures have their shooting range reduced
Creatures take damage while shooting
Creatures have to pay a fine for shooting
Creatures deal less damage with ranged attacks |
for chikish:
Creatures deal less damage with ranged attacks |
thx alot |
I said Verdants Wrath
Which is correct ;)
Which location does not house any Public services?
Crystal Garden
Peaceful Camp
Ungovernable Steppe
Lizard Lowland
Actually, i always thought that public services include estates. But even if so, even if we should count something like thief, mercenary guilds - garden and steppe doesn't have any of them.
So questions, imo, pretty weird :c
Definitely. The answer here is Crystal Garden. At the time this question was written there were estates in Ungovernable Steppe, but not in Crystal Garden.
The problem with the Sphynx questions not changing from year to year is that some are outdated. If the answer to a question doesn't feel logical, I think it is a good idea to ask it here. |
Which of these talents does not have the following effect?
"Hero gains +2 Spell Power"
Spiritual excellence
Arcane revelation
Arcane keeper
Mysteries of Chaos
