Helte
Introduktion
Heroes are just like regular units in many respects, but there are a few features that set them apart:
- Heroes are not recruited in a building, I will explain more about recruiting heroes later though.
- Heroes are not paid for with resources, but with either "Coins of War" or "Coins of Wisdom " which can be obtained by completing Island Quests.
- Each hero has one special skill that can be found in his or her description, each skill will impact the game in a particular way.
- By investing "Coins of War" or "Coins of Wisdom", heroes can reach new levels (up to level 20), this will improve their base values and special skills
- Heroes are not lost if you restart on a world.
- Heroes don‘t die. Following a defeat they are merely wounded and regain their strength over time.
- Heroes are not tied to the population of cities.
- Heroes can be assigned to towns, but there can be no more than one hero in one city at the same time.
- Heroes cannot be used to support other cities or players. They can be used only for your own attacks or in your own towns. They will also not stay when conquering a town.
- After an attack commenced, the hero will immediately return to his home town without travel time.
Hero Overview
A new interface element has been added, you can find it just below the God in the top right of your screen. If you click the element, it opens up the Hero Overview.
In the Hero Overview Screen you can see some of the information about the heroes you employ:
- Level, image and name of a hero
- Status: wounded, assigned to a city (or running assignment process), in combat
- Current experience points
Please note that you cannot own all heroes right from the start. In the early stages there are only 2 hero slots available. For each additional culture level you will receive another hero slot. If you don't want to wait, you can unlock an additional slot immediately by paying 250 Gold.
Heroes that are shown as wounded will need 18 hours (divided by world's speed) until completely healed. During that time, you can still level up that hero and he/she will still provide his special ability to his town (if applicable). However, a wounded hero will not fight personally, neither in attack, nor in defense.
As you can see, there are many functions and tabs along with the the hero feature. I am now going to go through each of these.
The Coins
You will notice that the feature comes with its own new resource:
The blue ones are Coins of Wisdom, the red ones are Coins of War. You will need them to recruit new heroes and to level-up your existing ones.
To gain this precious resource, you just have to finish Island Quests. Which type of Coin you will receive depends on your decisions!
Also keep in mind that every player can gain the same amount of Coins per day when finishing all available Island Quests. If Island Quests spawn rather seldom because of the amount of your overall points, you will receive more Coins per Island Quest to make up for the lower spawn rate. In the end, everyone could earn up to 24 Coins per day.
Recruiting a Hero
Clicking on the "Recruiting" tab opens up a window that looks like this:
You will usually see one Hero of War and one Hero of Wisdom being offered to you. This offer will change at midnight though. If you choose to buy one of the heroes, the other one will fade away as well. By paying 50 Gold, you can immediately refresh the offer instead of waiting until midnight.
The choice you get is random, but only heroes that you do not already own are shown. To acquire a "Hero of War" you need to spend "Coins of War" which you earn by successfully completing Island Quests in an aggressive manner. Generally speaking, "Heroes of War" are useful for any kind of military action. Some of the heroes in this category are good defenders, while other "Heroes of War" excel in leading your armies into battle. "Heroes of Wisdom" on the other hand are paid with "Coins of Wisdom ", which you get by solving Island Quests the wise way. The "Heroes of Wisdom" usually help to improve the economy of your cities by, for example, having a positive effect on building times, production of resources and the like.
Incidentally you will come across heroes that require an award in addition to the coins. This is listed in the price for the respective heroes. If this is the case, there is a special quest line that needs to be completed to earn this award. Each hero with an award requirement has his/her very own quest line, which will appear randomly. When such a quest line has popped up it will be automatically shown in the interface with all your other Island Quests. In addition it has a marker displayed on the map and thus a fixed position, like other Island Quests.
Keep in mind that such a storyline quest will not appear if you happen to have less than 6000 points overall. Also, these storyline quests are quite difficult, so don't always expect them to be done within a few hours.
Møntveksling
Hvis du ikke har nok mønter af den ene type kan du benytte dig af møntvekslingen. Denne tillader dig at ombytte Krigsmønter til visdomsmønter ved en 2:1 ratio - og omvendt. Selvom denne funktion giver et tab vil den stadig være brugbar, hvis du ønsker at udvikle din helt og du kun mangler et par mønter.
Niveaustigning
Hvis du trykker på den lille knap ved siden af erfaringsbaren, vil et nyt vindue komme frem. Dette vindue skal bruges til at få dine helte til at stige i niveau. Dette vindue vil vise alle ændringer, der vil komme efter en niveaustigning. Du kan også se, hvor mange mønter, der skal bruges for at nå dette niveau. Basisfærdigheder vil stige, såvel som kræfterne fra din helts evner.
Tildeling af helt
I oversigten kan du tildele op til en helt i hver by. Helte der er tildelt byen vil give dig to fordele:
- Hvis byen bliver angrebet vil helten forsvare byen, som en almindelig landenhed
- Specielle evner vil komme frem, når de er tildelt en by
Tildeling af helte kan tage op til 6 timer (divideret med verdenens hastighed). Det er denne tid, det tager for et helt at "flytte ind i byen". Flytningen vil ikke give dig nogen fordele endnu. Du kan trække en helt tilbage fra byen på ethvert tidspunkt.
Hvis din by bliver erobret vil den tildelte helt automastisk blive frigivet.
Du kan også se, om en helt er tildelt din nuværende by, ved at se på din oversigt (under guderne). Denne vil angive hvilken helt der er tildelt, om denne er skadet eller på vej i angreb.
Heltenes Råd
Og til slut, hvis du trykker på "Råd" fanen vil du kunne se alle heltene, der er tilgængelige i spillet, sammen med deres færdigheder.
