Getting past the bloody spider.

[themaster]

I came up with a loss-less solution for the giant spider.. (at first I thought it WAS impossible) (am playing impossible)

Here's how you do it..

- Get rune magic level 3 (you need the spell gift)
- Next get the scroll "song of the wind" I believe you get it as a reward for fulfilling a quest for a map
- Then use it until you get "Royal Griffins" (as in travel to a map cast it and reload a new map if you don't get "royal griffins") I would also recommend only loading this with MAX leadership as in it's time for the fight.. the more royal griffins you have.. the more units you create.. I had 23 of e'm creating 53 heavenly guard

- I would also recommend level 3's in magic on transmute and concentration (I say recommend but transmute is probably a must have for no loss )

I would also recommend you pick up the griffen banner at fastland.. (I believe it's always there?) because if you equip you get about 5 more griffins then normal leadership..

Anyway, all you do in battle is kill spiders and continually reload "royal griffins" at 20 spell points a shot.. I had 5700 leadership (mostly with equipment) and was level 18 protect your units w/ griffins/heavenly guard or use the "maidens" to consistently restore any lost core troops

(I think this is obvious.. but do NOT attack the spider with your core troops only heavenly guard because he counter attacks half the time killing your units.. only do this for no loss anyway )

Also it's helpful to have the spell "phantom" and use it on maidens which will allow you to restore every troop including maidens!

Actually, wish I took a screenshot.. (had like 8-10 heavenly guards) could show you too.. anyway.. I won no loss with giant spider.. but before I figured that out.. I did think it was impossible.. my battle went to like round 18 or something and I'm a mage.. but I'm sure there are faster/better ways?

sorry to burst your bubble but the wanderer scroll you get is random and the griffin banner same random in shop.
For me the setup was berserkers, ancient snakes and jarls, plus whatever you can find for spiderlings.

Ohh.. well, sorry to hear it..

I guess, I got a lucky setup

Or there is the idea.. you create your own luck!

Is the wander scroll really random? I wonder..

[themaster]

If the game really is semi-random..? happy to provide my 1st save of mage on impossible.. so that you can have a match up for what I got..

Hello
On this movie :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KgxbBBrdRw

I explain no lose tactic for mage and how to get trolls ALWAYS when You got scroll call 5 level monster.
On my youtube channel You can find a lot movies with fights against hardest oponents in the game (Von varro, Magnikant,Dedred etc.)
All battles and all the game no loss
BTW Any1 of You know anything about WotN editor? There it is any chance to get?buy it?

[Youpiya]

The trolls solution is good if you have the mana spring spell. Without it, you can't use 3 trolls to do no loss.
3 of us succeeded with 3 different solutions, related here :

1. I used 4 trolls not 3
2.I havent used any mana ressurect spell just bought all offensive scrolls on the map from all vendors, it should be absolutly enough.

Finished all game as mage on impossible difficult with no loss then I really know a little about this game.

Visit please Jarcik bounty Youtube channel. There is a lot of HD movies about that including all hard fights.
