Impossible Warrior challenge

Yup, if you complete same difficulty with same hero level and number of quests completed, then you get like 14-15 points per day for faster finishing. So twenty days difference should be like 290 score or so. Which is not that much, I have to agree.

The ring after you upgrade it gives you 3 INT permanently (adds to your hero stats) but the ring itself as it gets "exhausted" from the INT giving - will only bear the bonus of mana +3. ** even if you remove the ring from your inventory/ ring slot - you still would have +3 INT, but not +3 mana (as the mana is still only ring connected, but the 3 INT is yours till end of game - and yes - I found once 2 such rings and had +6 INT in total... even as I read somewhere that this should not happen)

I can't imagine that it would be otherwise, but what I remember is that I was scared as well about the same issue as I didn't know that my INT has risen - but after I have read about it in this forum, and checked my stats - it was true

I think it is pretty much

A little update on the score calculations:

I've changed my opinion on what the best score is and now this should be:
(100 + 91*4) * 3.64 = 1688,96 (9 days, 102 quests)
This is because the orc embassy recapture doesn't seem to count as a quest. You have to do the islands in 1 day tho, which indeed is pretty hard, but probably possible. And skip getting Anga's Ruby ...

And here is another (quite brave) suggestion
(100 + 93*4) * 3.64 = 1718,08 (7 days, 102 quests)

The horse would get very tired trying to attempt something like that

Screw the horse, it is for the greater sake of higher good (max score) - you will just jump on the back of your wife (if any) and yell " yipee yaaaaay! " and speed gallop towards the final battle.

If you don't have any, just steal pegasus from the future.

hi everybody,
after finishing mage on impossible, i decided to try it with a warrior, giving me a bigger challenge.

could anyone of you tell me which traits (attack, defense, rage, intelligence, mana) should be given the most priority?

and from what level on should i start chosing leadership when i level up?

and which units would you suggest for the start?

thanks in advance

[Keneth]

Most of these have already been explained, all you gotta do is actual read it. But I'll play ball for a bit, the stats are the same for any character, Int takes priority over Atk and Def, you'll want to have high rage since you'll be relying on spirits more but mana should take priority since you won't have much of it. Leadership depends on how good your skills are, prior to lvl10 it's somewhat of a waste but it might make things too hard for you. As for the units, you'll want less ranged ones due the fact that your nuking abilities will be diminished significantly but besides that, it's no different than with any other character. Royal snakes, bears, thorns at the beginning, maybe an archmage for the shield, swordsmen are alright, skeleton archers for ranged damage, inquisitors if available, devilfish for lots of damage with high crit range, griffons for excellent tanks etc. It depends a lot on your style, whether you're going for 0 losses, and what spells/items you have available.

[laffwis]

ok, thanks.

didnt expected that INT for a warrior is still top priority.

[Metathron]

Intelligence a priority for a warrior? Is that because of the difficulty level? Because otherwise it doesn't make that much sense
