Reply to [1.20] deorcnyse wildlands STILL not cleared after conquor of deorcnyse town and kill of all known darkling mobs near and in wildland in FE Support Stardock Forums

I hate making this suggestion in this forum, but it helped me immensely with the Wildlands problems. Go into the game files and edit Wildlands.xml - Comment out any of the Wildlands you don't like Then go to the CoreStamps folder and remove the XMLs starting with "S" and "W" for the Wildlands you don't like (they are named appropriately) OF course, make backups somewhere else on your computer if you want to feel safe This will make sure that random maps

Reply to Higher level heroes have fewer abilities than lower level heroes in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

I spent an awfully long time fixing up the champions to do exactly what people here were complaining about. The only champions worth getting were level 1/3 champs with a few outliers (Naddi Arena's outfit is worth it, for example) I also fixed it up so that the champions would drop a lot more of their own loot if you defeat them (as a lair, not in combat after being recruited).

Reply to 1.2 Crashes on End Turn & on Save Game in FE Support Stardock Forums

1.29 made things MUCH worse on my computer. Everything crashed the game - Loading, saving, starting a new game, ending a turn. You name it, it crashed it. I'm going to reinstall fresh from 1.2 with no mods, then go to 1.29 and see if it does the same thing. If yes, at least I'll have the 1.2 full download on my computer for a resintall

Reply to Let's talk about crafting... in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

Something I didn't see mentioned, but I think is essential - I really feel like if you are going to be crafting, you should have to have a sovereign in a city do the crafting, and the quality of the item should be directly related to spell mastery... ... then I might be actually tempted to take a spell mastery trait. Also, research in the Magic tech tree should provide additional abilities. Make these two inexorably tied so that you cn't either a) race ahea

Reply to Pick 5 THINGS for FE 1.3 in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

1. QUICK LOAD. There is a quick save button. How hard is it to make a button that loads that same game! (Yes, I like reloading) 2. City Level up. All the info AND The ability to scroll around, please. At level 1, it's so vitally important to know how many shards a city MIGHT connect to to take Conclave or how far it is from other cities that Town is a better option for the ZOC 3. Stack movement control. I HATE it when my Sov is on

Reply to So anyway, we were talking and… in Elemental Dev Journals Stardock Forums

Just some suggestions: Conquering Elemental nodes must be MUCH more tightly integrated into the hero system. With the exception of mages, so very little of what a hero can do/have is based on this. And it could be more intertwined even for the mages and the spells. Everything in this regard needs to be ramped up, which would immediately make a bridge between the roleplaying aspect and the civ-building aspect. By the same extension, every node should also be an elemen

Reply to The Past, Present and Future of Elemental in Elemental Dev Journals Stardock Forums

Here's what I would work on: More of the good, less of the bad. Oh I know that sounds either obvious or obtuse, but in my opinion with E:FE you've put too many obstacles in the way of making a great game. The chief example in this area is how you've let the backstory of the Elemental world dictate several game-play options (or non-options, as the case may be). When i cracked open E:WOM, I played the campaign for 3 or 4 maps and then quit and

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="11" id="3278669"]They're crucial to me as you'll face enemies with 40-50 spell resist at the end of the game.[/quote] Yeah, you can't waste 5 turns trying to cast blindness or shrink on a dragon with a 20% to get the spell through.

Reply to Tired of all Enemy Sovs being Assassins in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

Could be an algorithm that works poorly on lvl 4. For example, if you told the AI to always on lvl up pick Rares over Uncommons over Commons, and then if there were more than one of those, told it to just pick from the top of the random list, this would be a fine (if simple) algorithm for AI Sovs EXCEPT on lvl 4 where it would always pick Assassin.

That quest is easily finishable before lvl 18. In many ways you are better not finishing it. It needs to be lowered.

Reply to Why do standard sovereigns suck so bad?! in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

The great thing about 3 schools of magic is you can get more of the mixed school spells. Honestly the best is Mantle of Oceans. Between Mantle, Path of the Mage, Mages Robe, + Affinity you can get your tactical spells to cost 95% less. Which is insane. I mod modded in a waaspon that also gave 10% and had to get rid of it because it was making all my spells free - which was fun for a about 5 turns before it ended up getting stupid. Also, Sunder is essentially a

Reply to Strategy & Focus in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

I think you guys all might be going too far with this: First and foremost, make sure you aren't running version 1.00, Because if you didn't bother to upgrade, every time you load the game the AI is cheating and free-rushing every building in it's queue. Hence why you might be falling behind. Probably a better starting point than all the strategy stuff above, as good as it is. If you are on 1.01 or 1.02, then all the above advice is good. Here&#3

Reply to [Suggestion] Is Beastlord OP?. Should tamed beasts have mana upkeep? in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

Maybe there should just be less Beasts in the game. Change some of the creature types around and it would be fine the way it is. You notice that no one is say Banditlord is OP - because while there are lots of bandits, they all suck. If the Great wolf howl was toned down and there was an "Insect" category for the big bad spiders to go into, the pickings would still be good for beastlord, methinks, but not OP. And yes, the Studded Collar is the best item in the erly/m

[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="22" id="3276582"]I think you can only snake if the forest/river is immediately diagonal. So, it's right next to you, but it won't let you build a pier or lumbercamp until you snake a bit. I just find snaking to be stupid and gamey when it comes to movement. People would snake cities into long roads so they could move huge distances without spending any movement points and it just seems very metagamey and hacky. Like a flaw in ga

Off the top of my head, the Big three are Experience Multiplier Spell Damage Multiplier Tactical Mana Cost Multiplier Doing 1 mana Sunders for like 310 points damage is cool (most wildlands are a walk in the park for my sovereign by the early mid-game) - I'd like to see how I accomplished that.

Reply to [1.01] Bug? Poison immune monsters not completely immune in FE Support Stardock Forums

I'm still doing some work on this (because it's hard to setup) but I still think poison resistance is bugged. that's because the game treats poison that is applied directly from a Weapon (such as Venemous Shortbow) and posion that is applied via spell-like ability (such as using a vial of poison) differently.
