If we change spell that would be much more, ad MUCH bigger problem to defeat him 
Also i think gift of life is a bit OP, but you be the judge of that. I just wanted to check how it works and consider that my starting lds was 12k (with warrior this would be even more ridiculous) screen_1.
When i try my old mage save, every time i fight enemy hero we both cast phoenix spell. Wasnt it set in original that only 1 phoenix can be present on battle field? |
Wow!, how'd that screenie happen? The out of control code should have kicked in somewhere...
I'll also look into Demon Portal, but I did do a lot of testing on that one. Since it is based on leadership, enemy heroes have much higher leadership than you do and that's why you saw Baal summoning such big stacks.
I think 5/10/20 will produce pretty close to 100% leadership towards the end of the game at level 3 for a mage, which is pretty good for a permanent stack. Even 50% for an enemy hero can be big stacks just because of the their leadership (I think 40K leadership for an enemy hero is pretty normal - especially with the impossible difficulty modifier).
By the way, I'm in the midst of coding up the Archdemon's special abilities.
Sheep seems to work okay, 5 charges with cast every 5 turns is what it's looking like right now.
So far for their attack spells I've got: Fear, Helplessness, Pygmy, Magic Shackles, and Blind.
This one's been trickier than the Bone Dragon's because I need to add the spell after the enemy retaliates otherwise Blind would automatically cancel. I'm also having trouble with Pygmy - the attacked units don't go small! Hmmm.... seems like a weird problem with the Attack.act_small function.
Hopefully I can get it working, or I'll have to drop Pygmy...
