Just a question regarding kiting....

[cloude9]

hay guys when u "kite" do you do it when you have prgasus early in game, because it seems so impossible to get some navigational scrolls...i always end up fighting instead, and they are always powerful in terms of numbers....

Like even starting up playing, other the races early...i think i should do that.....
Currently with my normal mage build, im stuck @ verona , meaning there is a thorn hunter blocking my way near new verona , if i lure him out then im going to encounter that ghostly hero and invincible gaurdsmen walking around eish what to do....and ived already used a scroll for more experiencing, still need to finish up the kraken by scarlet wind...i have 1 black dragon 1 red dragon, 1 green dragon and 2 trolls and 1rune mage.....do you think thats good...?

Patience - your post was only here a couple days.

These forums don't get near the volume of traffic they used to, and sometimes folks just don't have time to respond right away.

To answer your question, kiting doesn't generally depend on the pegasus, since you have to win a pretty big fight in Montero to get it. By that time, you've probably already kited a number of locations.

I'm not one of the experts at kiting, so I always have trouble with the guards that require you to come straight at them. I'll try a few times and if I keep failing, I just give up and move on. I'll kill them later when I have a bigger army. (That'll teach 'em for not getting out of my way. )

As for your army lineup, it seems fine to me, but there are other factors. Which spells and skills do you have? What rage abilities? What items? All of those will have a big impact, especially as a mage. All of your units have high hit points, but may lack offensive power. However, given the black and red dragon's ability to strike at range, and a liberal dose of healing spells on the trolls, I expect you'll do well.

When I recently went through Verona, I hesitated at those exact fights, but decided to give it a shot. With just three archdemons, I was able to beat them all, though I did have to reload one where I messed up early in the fight.

Good luck.

A few tips...
1. Try to sweep in from the side if possible - that way as they aggro. you're already moving away, as opposed to continuing to move towards them.
2. Zoom in the camera to get finer control of movement, and make lots of use of pausing.
3. Some players (ab?)use the quicksave option - pause then save after every few steps, so you can always load if you mess up later. It shouldn't ever be necessary, but I guess it could make things easier if you're getting frustrated.
