Poll Question:
The worst noobie compkiller advice?

Although this sounds like fun, i mean it damn serious. I mean this game is 10 years old and some peeps made zounds of games against other skilled players and STILL every week a wanabee compkiller expert gives some stupid advices.

Literatelly this thread should be made sticky, so that newcomer read it first and dont use one of the following sentences and make complete idiots themselves.

So here is the poll. What is the worst noobie compkiller advice?

Responses:
Solmyr comes with Chainlightning and is therefore one of the best heroes!!!!
Built capitol first cause you need the cash!!
Take experience from boxes if the money/experience ratio is like this!!
Only buy the first 3 heroes cause the other dont come with troups.
Prefer magic heroes as main, cause might heroes lack in magic!!!
Learning is actually a worth skill cause it gives additional experience!
I kill 8 comps on 200%, so im a very good player and know what im talking about.
Stronghold is the worst town cause it doesnt have lvl4-5 mage guild!
Dont buy balistae cause it does not do enough damage.
Part your army and leave one hero in town to protect it.

undead is the most balanced race, i suggest playing with them all the time and insisting against anyone who claims otherwise that they're gigantic morons and ********.

Only true heroes go capitol day #1, troops are for noobs.

I vote for this phrase, cause I heared exactly the same from my friend in real life, not even at forums but he understood how he was wrong .

Another phrase I heared:
"I think computer knows that solmyr is great hero, so generated random map was created with advantages for you, not for me." <- LOL.
To be honest, in that bagged map I realy had advantages - there was only one way to tressure zone, only from my zone.

If someone can kill EIGHT comps on 200%, he is for sure a magician.


My best were SEVEN comps.

Learning... pissant skill.

I mean, Solymr IS weak, but you can win with him... if you like to have a challenge.

Capitol is an enormously stupid thing to do, but I used to do that, so I cannot vote for that, without  being hypocrite

Ditto for the Magic Heroes part, but like Solymr, they can be a challenge to play (if you like ).

Others are just... well... not good, but the topmost one is Learning imo. It just makes ZERO difference.. well, 0.15 difference, but meh. My vote goes to this.

Well, in theory you could win with EVERY hero, but with some its just very unlikely.

Dont get offended, but maybe anything you say in this thread is hypocrisy

On SOD Learning is wasted skill, no argue. But there are even worst skills - like Ballistics, Necromancy, Diplomacy, Navigation, Eagle Eye, Schollar, Sorcery...

If you get it early, Learning could be the difference between having your 8-th skill advanced or expert. And sometimes this could be a game decider.

So, if i have to choose between Learning and some of the above mentioned skills, i would get Learning.

And finaly i would go with another Noob Compkiller statement (not advice):

"If you are that good, you can make your turns faster".

D'uh, but this was about learning, so I said my peice about Learning. Would have been worse if I was able to rant about Scholar, Nagivation or Eagle Eye (*shudder*) instead.

And you forgot Scouting btw

No. I didnt forget it. Scouting is not wasted skill. Sure, logistics and tactics are better...

But Scouting is way better than half of the skills. Including Learning offcourse.

I guess. I'm probably one of the worst H3 players anyway...

Well, except those Solymr lovers.

the meteor shower speciality kicks even more ass than the chain lightning speciality (provided you have the mana to cast it )
or at least it seemed to me. interesting to win a tough fight in early game, like to get an important mine for example.

Not true. Do the maths. You will recover the points you spend for raising learning only after level 25 or so.

And I can't believe an hero like you consider Ballistic/necromancy/eagle eye/scholar/navigation as worst skills. Play without weird rules and you will enjoy them. Not your opponent tho...

Seems that this thread is luring all the noobs to post here.

Take an eye Xarfax, maybe you need to add more answers to the poll.

Like:

"Diplomacy and Necromancy should not be banned. The game must be played without weird rules".

And Salamandre - please, you do the math.

Your arrogant attitude equals the damage the actual tournaments did to the original game, and pretending they are fair. During 10 years great players played with diplomacy/necro and they never complained and accepted the challenge. When you have no solution, just ban it, problem solved.

A scholar can save your game if you did not find slow anywhere and get Geon in tavern. Same for eagle eye on small maps where your first level guild will bury you on first week if summon boat only in. It is not always about how to win, but how to overcome an impossible challenge.

@ liophy

Please stop your provoking posting style. There is no need to reduce H3 to "TE online game" only.

You may believe it or not, there are still players who play without tournaments and without rules like "no town sitting!".
So calling ballistics WORSE than learning is quite noobish if you consider this..
And if I have the choice between learning and sorcery, I will for sure take sorcery. Call me noob then if you like
