Gah! No more royal snakes!

[Metathron]

That's it, I just wanted to share with you my discontent, and I've run out right after I got the boots that give them +1 init and speed (very helpful). There were only 100-something royal snakes to be found in the underground cave, and there were none whatsoever anywhere in the swamp! Major bummer! :-x

Lol, in my last game I found this item in Freedom Islands but no snake here. When I came back to Darion I changed wife and pick royal snakes. But I had sacrifice so even 100 would have been enough but I had multiple packs of more than 1000. :)

Later I even found the Ring of Snake King. But even later I changed and give up with Royal Snake because I could not find a right combination with Royal Snake + Anga Ruby team + Wife adapted to items found. Feanora is great for a mage but the one weapon price is very rude with the choice of weapons offered by the game.

In fact I played the same part multiple time to have three variations before labyrinth, one was still with Feanora + Royal Snake and snake stuff. But I played only one variation and not the one with Feanora and Royal Snakes. I won't say it's very logical as Royal Snake + Ring + Boot is a dam strong combination. But have many weapon choices with Xeona and an Anga Ruby team means so many options.

Royal Snakes are always in count around 100 at snake cave, they are often in castles at swamps or at marta's hut. Also they can be in very large number ( over 2k or so) in Magic Valley in Ellinia (there are either snakes or wolves there)

[Vilk]

There's also a chance to get them in Animal shop in Greeenwort. I never seen them in Magic Valley but well I didn't played so many games. I suppose you mean the shop near the werewolf pack and small crystals field.

[Elwin]

Yep. as i wrote its randomized beetween snakes and wolves

If you do all the Frogman Brother's quest, I'm pretty sure the selection and number of creatures they sell increases. For me, Squelch almost always sells Royal Snakes and Werewolf Elves, while Bagaba often sells Beholder and sometimes even Evil Beholders.

Snakes are awesome, with Frog feanora and the Snake Ring, they were my Paladin's units that did the most damage over the whole game.

It's just a shame there's no level 4 Snake unit in AP. :evil:

[Elwin]

but you have no feanora as well so they lose their power

[BB Shockwave]

It's just a shame there's no level 4 Snake unit in AP. :evil:

Yeah, the greatest weakness of Snakes is that they are level 3 - not because of the HP (that can be helped with the "mask of youth") but because some spells, like beholder and dryad's sleep, affect them.

At least we are getting a pretty awesome Level 4 Griffin, they have been one of my favourite units in KB... the new Royal Griffins seem even better from what I saw in the demo!

[Elwin]

but paladin >> all its awesome unit

[BB Shockwave]

Yes, I agree. A much needed improvement over the Knight, he can at least do important troop support with his abilities while he gets to the enemy with that 2 Speed of his...

Same here, I run out of royal snakes, im using horsemen instead lol. Dam, cuz royal snakes are one of the best units on the game (low leadership requirements, good speed, decent dmg and nice critical bonus).
