[quote who="The_Gear" reply="90" id="3481689"] mqpiffle - Do you have the release patch? I know mine only came through at 1:40ish PM EST. [/quote] This was as of the latest beta release(7/17). If that issue was fixed prior to the full relase, then that would be a pleasant surprise! [e digicons]:beer:[/e]

[quote]Fixed an issue keeping the AI from declaring war [/quote] This is not fixed. Also, AI factions with Expansionist trait are producing hoards of Pioneers. There's a screenshot floating around the forums...I'll try to find it or link my own at some point.

[quote who="abiessener" reply="76" id="3481198"] On champ XP sharing -- the problem with having everyone get full XP is that with how limited (easy) XP for heroes is, it becomes the obvious and overbearingly powerful strat to always stack your champs up to maximize the (easy) XP you can farm off of quests/lairs/wildlands. And on a thematic level, LH is more about having heroes lead armies rather than D&D-style bands of adventurers roaming the landscape. [/quote] Yes.&nbs

[quote who="abiessener" reply="64" id="3480633"] On city level-up upgrades, I do find myself picking the same ones almost all the time. Mostly because Strike Garrison, Prison, Oracle, Amethyst Vault, Guild Grocer, and Governor's Whatever are so crazy freaking good. I'll poke Derek to see if he agrees [/quote] I agree city level-ups need a LOT of love. Funny, I almost always take Infirmary at Fortress lvl 3. I actually think that level-up (Fort3)

[quote who="Ericridge" reply="57" id="3480412"] At very least this does explain why most of the AIs fail hard now, they're going tall and dying horribly in general, ones that go wide and develop their cities successfully while using cheats to mitigate the unrest penalties is the ones that give me a good fight. [/quote] Less unrest mitigation = tall > wide. Wide was overwhelmingly the best choice, previously. We'll see how it plays out with the new patc

[quote who="Fezziwig" reply="7" id="3479800"] Nobody ever answered my earlier question--where do I find this trait? It's obviously not part of a trait tree for a class so is it only on items?[/quote] There is a single hero who has this trait. It cannot be learned by anyone else.

[quote who="GFireflyE" reply="9" id="3479091"]Recommend the Burning Wraith's Feed the Fire ability have it's mana cost reduced from 10 to 0. While this effect is stackable, it's only through tactical combat. It does not tranfer from combat to combat....and the unit is losing an action where it could be attacking every time it is activating this ability. 10 mana is never worth it. [/quote] I agree. Likewise, the mana cost to the Pariden ability Soul Spark should also be eli

[quote]1.) All the computer AI faction names changed to randomly generated names. Any ideas on how to get the default faction names back?[/quote] Not to bomb your thread, but I did make a pretty simple mod to help with this. https://forums.elementalgame.com/455223/page/1/#3473941 It does work just fine with the 1.7 beta, I will realease an updated version once 1.7 comes out in

I think daggers should be Assassin (and maybe Warrior) only, so we don't have mages running around with daggers just for the init boost. They should have mage-only weapons for just that reason. The fact that a staff's ranged damage is usually fully in one element (so they are dodge-able and resistable) is enough of a drawback so their init can be boosted somewhat, as long as they are mage only.
