    You probably looked this up after, but arrow towers ignore defence. This combined with the Armour bug means the main tower Does 56 to 116 damage every turn even against your Angels with 30+ defence If every building in the town was built. And the secondaries are doing 28 to 55 damage. Edit: they do have every building so the damage numbers are correct.

    • @Norovo
      @Norovo  3 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      I knew about the buildings thing but had forgotten towers ignore defence. Here's the line on HotA, it's actually quite an interesting change:
      "Damage calculation was changed to make Arrow towers more dangerous. Their innate 10 Attack points now added together with the defending hero Attack skill and increase damage properly, while still ignoring the target's Defense parameter. Archery now increase the Arrow tower damage as well. The Armorer, Air Shield and Petrification bug has been fixed, so these modificators now properly decrease the Arrow tower damage."

      @@Norovo That means even without a hero the towers are doing 50% more damage, which would mean even with the Armour bug fixed your angels would be even more dead. Which seems crazy.

      They are indisputably the strongest Tier 7 unit in the game. They used to only cost gold in the OG release, but with the expansions they added the gem cost because they're just too good.

      @Hardcore_Remixer 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      @@renatocorvaro6924 In the late game when heroes have huge attack and defense skills Ancient Behemoths can beat them because they ignore 80% defense. Think about heroes with 20 attack and defense. Archangels would have 30 + 20 = 50 attack and defense, but Ancient Behemoths would ignore 40 out of that 50 defense, so 50 attack and 10 defense versus 39 attack and defense. Archangels would deal extra 55% damage and Ancient Behemoths would deal 29 * 5% = 145% extra damage. 245% total damage is pretty pog of the Ancient Behemoths.

      @Hardcore_Remixer ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @@anonvideo738 Squishy? Ancient Behemoths have 300 health. Yes, those 19 attack and defense are not that great, but not all the tier 7 units have crazy attack and defense. Also, 9 speed isn't really slow. Sure, you can't race around the map, but that's still not slow.
      Also, you first said Archangels are the *strongest* tier 7 unit, not the most versatile. In terms of late game strenght, Ancient Behemoths are clearly stronger due to ignoring 80% defense.
      Even if Archangels hit first ans get an extra hit, Ancient Behemoths win a late game 1v1.

      @anonvideo738 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      @@Hardcore_Remixer I didnt say strongest, that was someone else. But I still agree with him, because 1v1 means little. Sure, behemoths win a 1v1 versus AAs, but titans can win against behemoths. Meanwhile, for everything thing else (more important than 1v1ing units) the AA is more useful.
      Imagine norovo running around with 2 3stacks of behemoths, he wouldnt be able to take towns then.

    • @Reynevan100
      @Reynevan100 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      In this playthrough it's only HD mod, which besides looking better than official Ubisoft* HD release (which is also only base game lol), introduces some fixes and tweaks.
      I recommend also using HOTA (Horn of the Abyss), which fixes a lot more and balances the game. All HOTA changes are done with extreme care and consideration to keep the feel of the game as close to the original as possible. You could say HOTA is an unofficial expansion for the game, as it comes with a new town called Cove, but it's main focus is to tweak, fix and balance the game while keeping it as 'vanilla' as possible.
