| {{user commentary|As every campaign is a set of scenarios connected together, there should be special tactics and strategy for playing campaigns, regarding that you will upgrade your heroes throughout the campaign and, in most cases, one or more heroes should be invincible, as their loss will make you lose the whole game. These are the tips how to play campaigns in the most effective way:
| |
| | |
| * '''Protect by all means the hero or heroes who should be invincible'''. Make sure they have a proper army and enough spell points, and avoid unnecessary combats. Remember that [[retreat]] and [[surrender]] is also considered a loss, so they have no right to do it.
| |
| * If it requires adequate time (both game and real life time), don't win easy scenarios until your hero or heroes who should advance to the next scenario get proper level. Take experience from [[treasure chest]]s, kill [[wandering monsters]] (not allowing them to join or flee), and visit all [[creature bank]]s so as to kill their guardians and get additional experience (moreover, some of them provide artifacts which can be sacrificed unless your hero is evil). If wandering monsters protect nothing important, don't block a strategic path and are unaccessible for the enemy, wait until their amount grows, so as to get more experience.
| |
| * If multiple heroes advance to the next scenario, upgrade them all so as to form a powerful team of heroes. Avoid using in battles the hero who has already hit the level limit and don't pick treasure chests by that hero. If you have a choice which hero will advance to the next scenario (like in [[Adrienne]]'s [[Playing with Fire]] campaign), choose the one with the best specialty and secondary skills.
| |
| * Visit ''all'' objects giving experience on the map: [[Learning Stone]]s, [[Tree of Knowledge|Trees of Knowledge]], [[Altar of Sacrifice|Altars of Sacrifice]]. For the latter, try to get as many artifacts as possible if your hero has good or neutral alignment (artifacts are usually guarded, therefore you will also get experience for winning combats), and sacrifice superfluous troops if your hero has evil or neutral alignment. Apart from getting artifacts on the map and in creature banks, you can buy them on [[Black Market]], from [[Artifact Merchants]] if the town can build this structure, or get them by saving [[Shipwreck Survivor]]s. A good idea is to sacrifice all artifacts you have prior to the very end of the scenario, as something like [[Sword of Judgement]] may help you very much in tough battles in the mid-game, but won't help a lot when the game is almost won.
| |
| * Try to visit a Tree of Knowledge only when your hero is on the penultimate possible level (e.g. if the limit is level 30, visit it on level 29 so as to get level 30), as every new level requires more and more experience points, thus being harder to obtain. If level limit is 30 and there are two Trees, visit them on level 28 and 29, if there are three ones, visit them on level 27, 28 and 29, and so on.
| |
| * On the last day of a month, reload the game until there is a month of a creature, preferably a one with decent HPs (e.g. [[Pegasus and Silver Pegasus|Pegasus]] or [[Serpent Fly and Dragon Fly|Serpent Fly]]), and kill wandering monsters appearing on the map by the heroes who need to get experience.
| |
| * Learn only those [[secondary skill]]s which are useful.
| |
| * Learn ''all'' spells there are on the map, mainly in towns' [[Mage Guild]]s (if a spell is lacking, consider visiting [[shrine]]s and hiring heroes with [[Scholar]] secondary skill). Learn even spells which are considered useless or used rarely, as if a [[Scholar (Adventure Map)|Scholar]] learns you a spell you already have, you will get instead +1 to a primary skill which is way more useful. Build [[Mage Guild]]s according to main heroes' [[Wisdom]] level (e.g. if they have at most Advanced Wisdom, build 4th level Mage Guild in every town where it's available).
| |
| * Visit ''all'' objects upgrading primary skills on the map, such as [[Mercenary Camp]], [[Marletto Tower]], [[Star Axis]], [[Garden of Revelation]], [[Arena]] and so on.
| |
| * Build structures which upgrade primary skills in your [[Tower]], [[Inferno]], [[Stronghold]], and [[Fortress]] towns, and visit them by all heroes who should advance to the next scenario.
| |
| * An easy way to get necessary spells and primary skills is [[Town Portal]] spell on Advanced or Expert level of [[Earth Magic]].}}
