So, what lv6 creature do you think that worse than wyvern?


I find cyclops, manticores and sometimes even unicorns less usefull than wyverns..

And if we concentrate only on first 2 weeks, wyverns are prolly top 3 level 6 because they are very usefull in creeping due to availability on day 1-2.

I was talking about usefullness, not 1v1 strength.

Wyverns are part of an early game, manticores are not. Unicorns is just an opinion, i simply dont use them much at start.
Cyclops are the worst of the worst level 6 units unless you play on easy or rich map settings.

Dwelling cheapness and day 1 availability is what makes wyvs better than those units in my eyes.

Yes, you are right.
I takes two turns to get them-like a 3rd level creature, and they are in level 6.
I think that their availablity in the earlier game gives them great adventage.
Just the ability, let's say, to capture many mines in the beginning of the game and similiar things, gives you a great adventage.
In the latest game, their adventage is gone, but for short games, it helps a lot.

In stupid maps like Good To Go, it is the weakest 6th level creatures. But in normal, it's great.

I beg to differ! What about hives? What about double building fortresses? If you find another fortress, you can build them on the 2-nd day at most (if the town already has a fort, then on the same day you take the town).

lvl 1: Sprites, to low hp (Peasant(note the parantheses))
lvl 2: Gargoyles, it seems they deal no damage and they arent too sturdy either, they only got speed. Maybe harpies, but hags are good and herpes sucks!
lvl 3:
lvl 4: Fire ele. I just hate them for some reason
lvl 5: Genies, bad overall excpet speed and casting wich I think doesn't do it, especially since it's a tower creature and tower=spellccaster
lvl 6: Don't now, Wyverna and manti seems popular, but they both have good speed, normal damage and health, wyvern have poison and manti has paralysis. Gorgons have death thingie, dread knight double damage and champions have charge, cyclops have ranged and attacks walls, and psicics are a bit too good actually, nagas are slow but even it out, and unicorns are good and have blind (totally outpowered by trogs) Hmm did I miss any one? Yeah efreets, they are great, maybe a bit too good with the might fire shield.
lvl 7: Pheonix, cuz' they are SO OVERPOWER. Decent damage, a bit low hp, but rebirth, cheap (that would be enough for a good lvl 7), DOUBLE GROWTH, fire immune. Remove two or three and it would be a normal/a bit bad lvl 7.
lvl 7 again: Hydras, slow and low damage, cheap though, and no. I don't think that no ret. and a lot of heads will even it out.

OOPS: missed lvl 6, and relax, I was joking about the trogs.

Lv 1 - imp. goblins are close at least they are cheaper with more health? how does that make sense
Lv 2 - zomb/walking dead. wolfies are close. At least zombs are tough and are as slow as skeletons; which make decent combo early game with liches
Lv 3 - wight- completely useless considering their cost. Also according to build tree, you never need to build them. 200 can get you wood elf, wight, or iron golem...

Just a note on orcs- they kick ass at 20HP and 165 gold and are a beacon of hope for a weak race

Lv 4 - vampires- at 360 gold, they are slow fliers with weak attack/def/hp. The upgrade cost 10gem/crystal and 500 gold each with similar low stats. Can be good for taking out critters but useless vs good human player at its cost.

Lv 5 - Thunderbird (but not rocs) and Pit Lords (but not fiends)- both are too expensive. T-birds and rocs don't fit well with the stronghold style- mediocre att, expensive. As for Pit Lords- think of it this way: a demon costs 250, a pit lord costs 200 more than a fiend. You need to lose at least 250 worth of units in order to resurrect one back (don't try to lose it in the first place)...meanwhile if you attacked instead, the pit lord can do about 150 worth of damage... do the math, it doesn't work out. The finicky-ness of the strategy can't possibly work.

Other notes- zealots need to be thought of as good lv 4's and they work well within the castle lineup. A zealot is way better than an arch mage or 3 marksmen. Same can be said for the dendroid; which are like slower but cheaper gorgons.

Lv 6 - Cornycores - expensive building, inaccessible build tree, lousy unit. Nothing works here. There is the thought that all units lv 6/7 are useful in some way. This is true, but cores are still the worst of them, by far.

Lv 7 - Titan - if you can't get the building soon enough, what use is the unit? bone dragon, behemoth and hydra are all very accessible and cost effective (as are giants, but not Titans). In this regard, angels are much better than green/red dragons because they are more accessible as well as stronger.

Although I am not some kind of Titan Addict anymore since I have started playing for a little while now and I have seen the use of other units such as the Behemoth (the ability to get them early(in the first week) and the fact that they are quite powerful is a bonus) and Arch Angels, I wouldn't put Titans as one of the worst creatures for its level.

The only disadvantage of this unit is that many of the Tower structures do require high resource amounts and this can be bad for when you are playing on Small or Medium maps since you won't be able to get the higher and more powerful level troops when you need them and of course, the resources aren't always available to you. Therefore, I would suggest (although I might be wrong) that Tower is good for Large to Extra Large maps because you will have more time to collect the resources you need to build the structures that you need.

Sure, the price of the Titan is quite high, but the stats speak for themselves. While not the best unit, I think that Quantity does matter in this case since a lot of the other level 7 units are able to be hired in larger quantities at a time depending on the players resources though, but if you try to fight a single titan with let's say a stack of Ancient Behemoths or Arch Angels, then you will lose.

The good things about Titans is that they are a shooter and they have good hit points (one of the highest if I remember, being at 300 and I think Ancient Behemoths and Arch Angels also have the same), good defence and attack and good damage. I don't think you would be getting Titans in the first week (impossible imo since the resource requirements are too high for the Tower) and getting enough of them to pose a threat to the enemy might prove to be a bit difficult but I would put Ghost Dragons as one of the worst creatures for its level.

If I am wrong, then feel free to correct me. I'm trying to learn a bit more about the game and try not to be a newbie that I have been for a while.

Huh? I agree about the zombs, but wolfies? They are one of the best units for lvl. 2. That's only one of the flaws you made.

I'm sorry, but you do't know much about the game. Don't worry tough, if you want to improve your skills you are in the right place.

lvl1 - imps
lvl2 - zombies
lvl3 - orc chieftain
lvl4 - medusa queen or greater basilisk. mq > basilisk cuz she can shoot, but she sycks overall.
lvl5 - zealots, ridiculously low hp for its cost.
lvl6 - scorpicore or cyc king , both of them are awful.
lvl7 - ghost dragon, tho its ageing ability is sometimes quite useful.
