Game`s difficulity. Am I missing something??

[loner]

Thanks for replies guys, but:

Yes, I use Rage spirits (well, only have lvl 2 of the mage attacking demon now, other three seems to function later in the game?)

My army is (If I remember right):

25 polar bears
55 ancient bears
5 mounted knights
80 priests
22 archmages

Basically, it is the strongest units I have been able to find..


I have completed everything I could in :
The starting area (Greenwort I think)
Swamps to the west
Forest to he south of Greenwort
and the area east of Greenwort (sorry, can`t remember names..)

Now I`m strugling in Eastern+Western Isles and the Dwarf underground.

You guys have no trouble? Still can`t believe I`m doing something wrong (even if I was, I would have to do someting really badly, to have such problems)

I am playing on Hard, so my experience is slightly different, but here's what I found:

I was about level 14 by the time I reached the dwarven lands, so level 11 is a bit low.

You should have the first two rage spirits leveled up to about 12 each.

I found many of the fights in the Western Islands to be very hard when I first arrived. I had to go back to Darion and clear pretty much everything out. You can get a lot of gold and xp from the tombs area in Marshan Swamp.

I was able to defeat everything in Darion except for the evil child you described above and the king's tent guard.

A tip: you should make sure you have Scouting level 3 so that you know exactly what you're facing. Hope that helps.

Hmm i think u should have already 2 demons with more level(u are only level 2 on first demon ???). Rage is very important for a warrior because he don't use spels and he gets more rage than an mage.
U should have important artefacts, an whife and i think even bigger army.

This is difficult for me even on normal, so i think it is true that this is harder than other titles.

Some tricks you can do is to dodge encounters by luring out monsters and running past them. You can do this to get the knights at the tent. There are tons of leadership flags you can pick up in Freedom islands by doing this on your boat.

Other than that, just make sure you really have been getting all the exp, items, and skills you need.

Talk to the spirits and they will tell you what to do to control them.
One of them only requires you to feed him some poisonous creatures and he'll obey, so you could have had him as soon as you got the box.

well, I did lot of side quests before getting Spirits of Rage, so thats propably why I have it on lvl2 only(I started to use it much later then I should I guess) ...

Other than that, I did everything you suggested here..
(fighting all mobs in Darion, all quests I was able to do, all gold gathered, leadership flags, items..)

Still seems strange and unbalanced :/ Just because I didn`t level Spirits of rage enough, I`m screwed? Stilll, you should be able to fight normal mobss with just army and some spells.. Guess I will have to start new character and get Spirits of rage as soon as I can, so I can level it up as soon as I can..

Try to avoid fights - there are lot's of places you can run to avoiding mobs...
I also had issues at the same map, but changing troop types helps a lot. I realized that arch mages were quite useless for me. On the other hand big stacks of level 1 monsters did the job just fine. Especially fish from islands.

Y, i think the only option for u is to restart the game, because spirit rage is very important and first 2 demons are easy to get and to level up, and with only one level 2 demon is very hard. U have a whife from now?

well, I had a chance to have wife, that frog princess and that pirate zombie wife, but both were giving useless stats for me as a warrior, so I didn`t take them... (intellect, mana..)
I did some further search and it really seems my problem is that I didn`t use Spirits of rage since early beginning..
Thanks for advice guys, going to start over today when I get back from work.

Have fun with this great game!

You can use cheats so you don't have to start over.
There is a command to level up your spirits:
