Talk to me again when you release your 8th map, then we see if you still available to spend one year more for a ninth. It's like everything, interest goes down after you did all you could.

Finish the fight against Wystan, and I have to say: god that was horrifying. I was so desperate to the point that I have to abuse Arcane Tower to gain maximum possible stats: by swapping Knowledge after getting x2 mana with SP (yes all of my battles are done with spells, ADs barely do any damage at all), and Def with Atk (the moment his Titans have the chance to shoot you are dead anyway), basically to maximize all the damage potential I have. Then reload TONS of time to get perfect spell casts without any lucky Resistance, then Poison (not 100% because of Resistance and Mirror), then Fear and Titans' Morale (god bless me because they didn't get morale after the entire battle). Though I don't know if I can keep continuing with this trend, and I already edit some mini bonuses here and there.

First turn, frenzy on middle titans, second round they should be dead. Then MoE should simply resurrect two efreets/round. I would also not go into that fight without fear, it helps.

Income is actually really poor compared to MoS (+2 Mithril version), so not enough to kill even with Frenzy (only 30%) on the second round, Resurrection 2 efreets round yes, but one Morale and you are dead. Also I save most of the Mithrils to convert town (already have 8th town because I need as many Devils to tank as possible to survive one turn for Resurrection while I was spamming chain lightning). Also really low numbers of ADs because I was being greedy and only started to flag dwellings after the 8th town  (get one AD bonus to compensate)

Didn't try yet MoE in Hell, but it seems to me relying only on spells damage is risky, many immunities and it will delay your frenzy, as implosion uses the same resource. I think Wystan is doable once you have your damage over 110, but indeed he is hard fight, along with Zydar/Rissa/Alkin. Those are fights I can not predict easily the outcome.
On the other side, once you unlock fire bonus, game becomes cake walk, so is only about surviving until there. 5x blind, bless and just wait.

Mostly because spell damage gives you extreme advantages at early because of x4 effects while monsters still receive little bonuses from Growth, also have little worry about A/D/dmg, but only if AD is strong enough to survive that is. I think you may try it out, MoW should probably be fine with the new buffs.

Well, you are at 1 town left from Arena. Now with +4 slow you will level everyone in no time there, then spoils of war will help unlocking fire in 2 weeks, when bonus.
You still have damacon save with MoE? I would like to see it.

Not really sure if I can do Arena, only -2 Slow here. Also cursed ground which is the bane against my build. And what level did you fight to get Fire bonus in 2 weeks lol? Don't forget that MoS has 1/3 extra bonus as well.

Once you unlock spoils of war, Arena will give about 3000 resources/>1 million gold for every fight. I used it during a week to build market places everywhere, then second week to unlock fire bonus. Fighting Arena every day while advancing with Commodus is not that easy, but when you have shrines, should be very doable.

With my 200 Barons with good speed,but little damage,I decided to avoid Zydar for now(m5w1).
Two utopias near him though,might be a good idea just to collect more army and come back next week.
Going to put more Barons in mines.

Did you pass Gerwulf with forgetfulness on 50% or on 25%?

I was down in that battle to...1 devil only. But this was exactly at the moment he had no more shoots and no more mana for implosion, his dragons did not attack, so I had the time to resurrect.

Ok, I think I am done, the change to MoW satisfies me. Replaced the package at same link and uploaded main script:
Commodus.erm
No changes except MoW, which gets a noticeable boost to mithril production, but it takes time to level each hero.
I also enabled "switch abilities" for every difficulty level. Attack all around remains reserved for Hell and costs 600 mithril.
Of course, MoS has no more the +2 from CB's, but +1.
Dwellings (except level 6-technical reasons) returned to their initial status, you fight only if you have the gold, two fights generate growth bug.

No change for MoE  ?
Anyway Attack All Around is god damn annoying, have to switch it constantly between battles because against some Heroes the skill is pretty much suicidal since it forces AI to go out immediately.

I see nothing I could change for MoE without breaking the thing. It has easy start, difficult middle and very easy end, except last battle but there you have already all the goodies. Attack all around is indeed not suitable for sieges, but it helps a lot in arena and neutrals.
Try mow, now it is very different, not homeless like before. It is slow, but solid if you take care of all heroes.

Finally unlock Spoil of War and I have to say Arena giving spoil is probably the biggest change in Hell mode. Literally from zero to hero and game changer. Game also become much easier too (though kinda regret all the time I spent on Treasure Hunter), middle game is still a nightmare though.
