Erica Proud vs. Rolf
 

Hello all,

Totally new poster here, but I've been playing strong since KB:TL

I've come to a point on Bola Island where I am mid-quest and I have to choose between satisfying the quest-giver "Rolf" (in the barbarian ship on the coastline) or his dissatisfied lover "Erica Proud". Basically, I have to fight one or the other and I'm doing a no-loss run.

The questions are:
1) Which one fights harder?
2) What are the rewards for beating each?

Thanks,
Fishi

You can make two saves before fighting them and get the info you need at first hand.

If I remember correctly Erica is a level 7 Hero and Rolf a level 13 Hero.
So I fought Rolf (more XP). After the fight his shop had Royal Griffins.

His shop is completly random ..

After fighting both of them the clear answer is to fight Rolf for more experience and (his) better shop options afterwards.

Does fighting Erica give you a shop or anything else? Might not be a bad idea to save and fight both to see who has better stuff for sale!

I think that it is all the same. In both cases Erica returns to rolf and the shop you get is one and the same. So far the only difference I observed is that Erica's Flaming arrow inflicts less damage that Rolf's, but Erica's troops are harder to kill with the setup I'm usually using (Inquisitors, Paladins, Royal Thorns, Archmagi, 1 extra) due to more ranged units - rolf usually has tougher flaming arrow (like twice the damage of erica's) and utilized more close combat units.

As such, they're perfect for eachother :P
