Confirming what Helios said. You don't have the spells per turn to spare on damage spells, which only then Destroyer would make sense. Sacrifice 2 has always sufficed for my Paladin and Warrior games.
Distortion is by far more useful. Put another point in the Healer talent if you don't know where to put your magic runes. You need some to get Tolerance and its prerequisites, too.

Today I fought two important battles: Karador and Dreddho...

Karador was... a disaster, I los many troops but I won (nothing can take down 300 Royal Snakes).


Dreddho wasn't so bad, with skeleton archers I demolished his dragon stacks very easy. I had some dead archers but it was easier.

There ya go, man. Practice makes perfect, neh ? :> Royal Snakes are badass. I always use them for Darion. I don't play games that don't have RSnakes available from scratch ^^

Royal snakes hold the damage record: 16014 damage.

16k is nice. But have a look at this :>

I don't use sprites/LF, but skeleton archer is the runner-up.

My runner-up were Demonesses with some 25k. Whip ftw.

Bah, my sprites hit 62k without a dagger.


(but with a whip and hell's breath against thorns...)

Special vulnerabilities don't count since it's not comparable.

I need archers for dragon fighting. Should I choose elves or hunters?
