very nice post about wifes and kids.

i have frog girl as woman and have 4 kids

+10 mana
+10%mp
+4 scroll spots in book
+5% xp

they are okey, but with powrfull artifacts in endgame she will prolly suck. artifacts that give +3-6 and leadership bonuses are way better then those i got.

[Antiga]

It's funny, I had the exact same children. I just divorced the frog lady though... I wanted to cook her in her frog form, but it took too long so I just left her, for the Elven princess. Now instead I am probably only going to have 1, maybe 2 kids. A single artifact of mine gives +3 int +10 mana so thats the wife+best kid bonus in one... It's a win win situation.

I wonder which wife gets the uberkids? +10% leadership, +20% defence/attack/int, +30% mana... *drool*

Same for me.

rhomboidspace thank you for that I was looking for such a info

now if you caould find same info about items it would be awsome.

What I mean the items stats after upgrade cause fighting each time to see if it is worth it is a bugger

[Antiga]

Most items simply add their initial stat each time it's upgraded. For example the officer's baton gives 250 leadership. 500 after 1 upgrade, 750 after 2 ups. I assume 1000 and perhaps some other bonus on the 4th upgrade(Haven't got it yet). But this counts for every item i've upgraded so far. +5 mana ring to +10, to +15. +10 mana +10% magic restistance belt.. to +20 and then to +30 for each at 3rd and final upgrade. The keepers are usually a bit inbalanced strong though, only being able to defeat them when the bonus is rather insignificant in comparison to your current strength.

Hmmm... I've got the frog wife too, but I have a different set of kids. I think I have +5% exp, +5 def, and +20% def (can't remember 4th). I'm playing a paladin, so this seems to fit with that style. Perhaps you have mages and so you get the same set of kids.

Of course, it could also all be random.

[Antiga]

Actually, I got a knight. That +5 and +20% def is freaking sweet... I'd even get used to the ugly dwarf if I had to for those bonuses. =)

Now I got my elfen wife, but I think she's bugged. I've been trying to have babies with this woman for a while now but it doesn't matter how hard I try.. Nothing comes out

Thing is I can ask her to make kids again, each time i've had a battle or something.

One thing i'd really like to know is which wife's have what equipment slots.

Elfen chick has 2 regalia, 1 regalia/belt, 1 artifact.

I'm looking for one with boots, helmet, armor and whatever for the 4th slot.. if possible at all =) So many good unused items right now.

[chriscampo99]

I am now using Xeona (from Heaven in Demonia).

I love that she provides 2 (!!!) weapons slots, 1 Boots (which i now have a kid in, Angelika for +10 Mana), and 1 belt/artifact.. I think I'll stick to her for the 2 weapons slots since those two alone did wonders for my attack level (+7 attack, +3 Intellect to be exact)

not to mention she wants to be your slave and gives you her castle.. and tells you to be strict with her!! she's naughty and i love it!
