Anybody else feel like the Magic Mirror spell sucks? 20-40% chance to reflect a spell, but it only casts on a single target, meaning you're better off using a different spell 99.99% of the time.
If HotA were to improve the spell, how would you go about it?
Originally, I thought of changing it to trigger 100% of the time, but only being able to reflect a limited number of spells (1/2/3 based on skill in Air Magic). However, comments I got on Reddit said it would just end up being a more situational and arguably worse spell compared to Anti-Magic (even if it would allow you to buff your creatures while Anti-Magic prevents that).
As such, the safest approach would probably be to make it a Mass spell if you have Expert Air Magic. This would probably be the best way to go about it, but the spell is still RNG-dependent.
What do you think would work?
I made Magic Mirror a mass spell at Expert Air Magic.
It's still very situational and very expensive though.
It's like the only purpose of the spell is to protect Gold Dragons from Implosion. (But why design Gold Dragons so terribly in the first place?!)

With a language like that, you would think mods have better things to do than care about a bit of off topic chatter.
It's inevitable, it happens in every thread, you drift off the topic and begin talking about different things.
He came with a suggestion, he might not know about the ideas and suggestions thread, you can't expect everyone to know about that.
I guess you prefer this thread silent, dead and buried instead.

The least would be reading the thread's OP before posting in it though.

Do you know The Immortal Battle (WoG/ERA) map is coming?! When an original map must/would be HotA version.. But HotA team delayed so badly.. Elite or legendary map never come again.. My old skill and vital OP bring to the Immortal Battle from my maps and also other maps.. If you are also playing WoG/ERA.. You understand why the Immortal Battle then.. Ok our eternal question: when will the 1.7.0 version release?! An example I, and Sal can't publish HotA maps.. No sense to update a map again, etc Many mapmakers are inexperienced.. My fault, when I made a few HotA maps.. I thought HotA means Cove.. But what did it have to do with the Factory?! So the best be waiting.. Don't make a map.. I remember they nerfed Logistics.. First HotA is 100% ready.. Ok the Immortal Battle.. Image! 4 Castle human/AI fight from the winner becomes walkthrough vs opponent has 4 towns, but one Grail in the town, and only +10 att/def is more, thus the Grail. When I counted experience points, everything military and magician PS from Arena, etc to opponent's hero, and then winner walkthrough has only 1lvl spells vs opponent with mastered spells.. Gnoll out, and replaced Haspid, but now's Hell Hydras.. Harder than Elite.. But story will continues to the next opponent.. If walkthrough beat the opponent.. I wrote Hell Hydra and the Grail, so of course Fortress.. Later on stronger opponent than my Resurrection of Fear (SoD) map.. When Inferno has Archangel stats and values, etc also +20 PS and mastered spellcaster at 4lvl for your random 2lvl spells from Fortress, but not Cure and Dispel yet.. And final opponent is a godlike.. A map is still an easy to me*.. Even if EE showed important.. Ok  if HotA could better..
*Yeah strong MP can beat the map.. It required!

Artifact.def is installed with Lords of the Ring map mini-mod. Delete this file manually from /Data folder (after finishing this map of course).

Hi guys, I need some help. Feel free to point me to the right thread since im unable to find solution.
Sometimes when I play the game, it suddenly stops working, no error, no pop up windows, it just freezes. I cant do anything but to perform hard shut down on my laptop.
What may be the cause and solution to this?
Thanks in advance.

Search for the thread called ‘[HotA] Bugreports. Critical bugs.’
That should be the correct one. I hope you find a solution.

Some new information from a Russian forum postet by Donko/Lazy:
Translated with Google
Link: https://forum.df2.ru/index.php?s=c8f0df8fd93d5ccc517d3cd5a317371e&showtopic=37363&st=4000
Friends and not so much, I brought you a little long-awaited news. More precisely, not just news, but reports from the development fields and some facts about the campaign.
11/07/2023
- The gameplay part of the factory campaign is completely finished: All 8 cards are ready, tested and linked together by transferable heroes, artifacts, etc.
- New maps for single player have been added to the game and almost all old maps have been updated where required
- Right now we are in the process of recording voice acting for campaign videos. Yes, the traditional voice-over will return during cutscenes before and after missions, and there are plans to voice over already released pier campaigns
- Simultaneously with the voice acting, texts are being written that will accompany players on the campaign maps
- Work continues on fixing bugs and optimizing the code
And since I started talking about the Campaign, then I’ll tell you a little about it: You already know that there are 8 missions in it, almost all maps are medium, large and very large in size, they play for a long time, which will definitely appeal to those who like to bring together large armies in epic battles. The campaign will offer dozens of hours of gameplay, but I will warn you! The campaign will be complex, designed for experienced players. If you found the pier campaigns difficult, then you definitely shouldn’t choose “high” difficulty levels: We have gone further and, in addition to the standard strengthening of AI and reducing the starting amount of resources, a player playing at higher difficulty levels will face additional difficulties and will be limited in some features available when playing on lower difficulty levels. So you shouldn't feel obligated to only play at the "impossible" level. If there are difficulties, feel free to bet a horse or rook (or maybe a pawn) - there will be plenty of large-scale battles, cunning of opponents, and opportunities to solve mission problems in several ways at any difficulty level!
Without exaggeration, we can say that this will be the most detailed campaign in the history of the game, there is little we can do in memory of the Associate Professor.
Of course, the team’s plans include further stories that we want to tell when the time comes, but for sure we won’t dare to encroach on the Factory’s ascendant campaign.

Glad to hear some more news, even if it's not the news I was hoping for.
Also, not to get too conspiratorial, but on October 31st someone added a section to [url=https://heroes.thelazy.net/index.php/Talk:Factory]Factory's talk page[/url] on the wiki saying that something was being announced on the 7th. They also vandalized the main page to say that Factory was released some time between November 9th and 20th. I thought they were just a troll, but I wonder if they have some kind of insider information now. It's not too far-fetched; it sounds like the update is pretty much ready now.
I dunno, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

I highly doubt it will come out that early, considering they need to finish the text in the campaign maps, and make a new creature balance to replace what was in the alpha from Streamfest 2019. Considering how many times they can work out the details of the same render until they reach their phantom ideals that the casual player won't even see and the aesthete won't pick on, they can do this until February 2024, but that's the deadline. The build itself was ready and fully playable as early as September.
But nothing prevents us from hoping for a release in the 20th of November. I'm hoping that Crew will finally stop pulling the factory, release it, and take a break.

The 20th is a little less than two weeks from now. I don't think it's impossible for them to book voice actors (that'll take one day minimum, max a week depending on each actor's schedule), and writing is the easiest thing to do, especially if the story is already outlined and finished. I don't think it's impossible.

What do you mean by that? I thought the creature balance was already done since July, and all they've been working on is the campaign. I mean, I'm sure they've been constantly iterating, but I doubt they haven't touched creature balance for four years.

@mitsche
Thank you from bringing these up once again.
It seems that the Factory is pretty much ready, and since the campaign is also pretty much done, they've decided it's best to roll them out simultaneously, while the bugs are being ironed out. Despite the rumours, and when presented like this, I think the most likely scenario is the New year release.
