Fighting loki causes a crash not long after he switch place

Fighting loki causes a crash not long after he switching place.
Anyone got a fix for this since i cant finish this bug festival of a #$%@ game.

Oh and b.t.w. First time i bought a game from 1cC and ofcourse the last time because a game with so many bug like this is plain lazy and sloppy work.

Use the latest patch, build 6250. Loki was probably fixed in build 6246 (which was a while ago).

Are you using any user mods or user patches (or have you used them before)?

Is there any particular spell you are using? What units are you using? Does it happen when a unit walks over a fiery hex?

If you can consistently crash it, can you tell us the steps to repeat it?

Got paladins, demonogist, rune-mages, canonneers and elves + ancient phoenix.

Indeed when a fiercy hex is in place its crashing when a unit steps on it.
Mmm perhaps it crashes when a summoned unit is on it.

iam now gonna try all new units except for the paladins.

I've beaten him with Demons and Demonologists (both summoned units) and been hit with too many fiery hexes too.

I've also beaten him with Ancient Phoenix too.

The only time I really crashed a lot with the fiery hex was on builds prior to 6246. <shrugs>

But, I was able to beat the game PRE 6246 build. Here is what I did. You can try to keep most of your army in the top/bottom lanes so he can't drop his fire wave on you (and you can avoid most fiery hexes). Then you have one or two 'hitters' to hit him.

The only bad part is if his own summons gets burninated and that might cause a crash.

So, you never used any mods or user patches? I only ask because user patches have to be deleted or else they override the current patch.

ive been using user patches/mods , but deleted them all (addon folder) after the 3th patch and that was way before this problem, so i guess thats not the problem. iam gonna use berserkers in the hope i can kill the boss fast enough, that will be my hope at the moment.

As a last resort , you can disable his fiery hexes in loki.atom file

wave {
class=scripted
script_attack=loki_boss_wave_attack
ad_factor=1
custom_params {
damage=200-300
typedmg=fire
stun=0
traps=7 (replace 7 with 0)
time=1
}
}

At least this way , you can still have a fight with him.

Big thnx !

ok, fiery hexes is the problem.
A summoned unit by loki walking on a hex is causing the crash.
