Options to speed up combat?

[Sky Keeper]

Hm... Played with combat speed on maximum, but always wanted a "no animation" option... too many similar fight on later stages.

I started to get bored with some of the fights in Kordor. They take too long, and once you've developed your winning strategy there's no thinking involved.

But if you let the computer do autocombat, my goodness! The computer AI is shite. No wonder I'm powering through the game on Hard.

Even with the fast animations the combat is still too slow.

Pole axe spell:

It's a nice animation, I can tell the artist did a lot of work on it, the axe fades in, spins around, slices the goblin and knocks him over.

Someone spent quite a bit of time getting it looking perfect.

I cast level 3 pole axe twice at the start of most combats. I'm seeing the same animation 6 times in 20 seconds. I've seen that animation at least 1,000 times, even on high speed animation it takes far too long.

2 ways to fix it, an easy way and a hard way.

The easy way is if the developers (or modders?) make a very high speed option.

The best solution would be an automatic speed option, the first 10 times you see an animation (example, your newest Rage spell) it shows it normal speed, the next 10 times at high speed, anytime after that is at very high speed. I don't that that could be done by modding though.

Hi everyone!

With the "fast" animation speed the combat is way too slow.
Are there any options (mods) to speed up combat? Or turn of the animations completely?

Thanks,

Looking for the same thing too......
Animations are great, but should not take 50% of my time playing.

A nice gif and thank you guys for the tip.

By the way, you could simply say that the option is only available from the Options Menu in the welcome screen - the first screen you see when you run the game, the screen with the Save/Load options. - it is NOT available during play, hence all the questions...

if they said that they would be lieing, the options are available any time in the game. atleast they are in my version, maybe you have a funky version.
