I just compared hes screen to my win against Karador on hard and can say it IS imposssible, i had less exp and was level 25 and amount of exp is higher too

Then that's an interesting playthrough. You've gotten pretty close to the maximum boost to all fire spells. 2x30% Fire spells, +20% from the Prismatic helm - that's a pretty nice boost. The belt is also invaluable. The only thing coming to mind that you lack is the flame necklace (+15% Fire), but you do have better ones.

You also seem to have been taking mostly mana and int upgrades and few leadership upgrades. In any case, the game's been pretty kind to you - in 4-5 mage playthroughs from normal to impossible, I never had such strong item setup. I think it's very rare

I had very similiar in mine first game

I've actually discovered that Armageddon is not fire damage and is not boosted by those artifacts. That was probably done with the intent of not being able to use armageddon with black dragons and have immunity. So I had pretty much thrown away two slots. Ironic, given that finding those artifacts is what encouraged me to try the idea.

I've kept using the strategy, though; it's much faster than using the elf army and I more easily take out packs of dragons. I'll be curious at the end to see how my damage statistics play out.

armageddon does astral damage :>

Armageddon has also a fire effect if I remember well its description.

Dam, that armageddon + black dragons sounds like a good strat.

You'd need to be able to time back level 5 dragons though, so I'm guessing at every level up of the "time back" spirit, you always chose time back. Sounds like a "1 strat kills all" ability, and it'd be quick for most battles. Plus your spirits would level fast.
