You had to specify first, that you are playing full version.
Spirits of rage will be available after you finish the third quest of the king.

Do you have to do anything special to get rage, besides completing 3 quests for the king?
I completed the quests but still no rage. Am i missing something

No, you shouldn't. After finishing the third quest you will recieve the cascet of rage. Go to "Hero" screen and in the left bottom corner you will find all spirits. Talk to them and they will give you small quests, when you finish them, spirits will be available. :

Thanks a lot

I am going to get the full game any day now, and I have trouble choosing what class to play. I mostly like mage in the demo, but I notice that his rage buildup is abysmaly slow, partly because of his modifier, and partly because hardly any enemy survives to reach my troops.

So, a question to all you veterans out there:

Does the mage get enough expirience during the game to learn all the rage spells?

I'd be dissapointed if I did not at leas see those spells, they seem pretty cool.

Additionally, does leveling up Chaos Magic etc change the spells of that school further than just increasing effectiveness?(for example, fireballs gaining a larger area of effect perhaps?).
Are there really massive spells later on to make it worth being a Mage?

Thanks

1.

Yes. Rage spirits are just as essential to a mage as they are to a fighter. Drink rage potions / hire Inquisitors / work on your skills to compensate for the initial lack of manliness.

2.

Additionally, does leveling up Chaos Magic etc change the spells of that school further than just increasing effectiveness?(for example, fireballs gaining a larger area of effect perhaps?).

:SPOILER: Actually, I remember only one instance of such change. Some rage spirit's spells do change though and pretty dramatically. Like that robot thingy, summoned by Technomage. When leveled properly it can give your units additional turns, among other things.

3.

Are there really massive spells later on to make it worth being a Mage?

I think demo gives an incorrect impression of that class. Playing a mage is hard. Like damn hard, especially on a difficulties above normal. Finding spells is a non-trivial task; in my current game I, literally dug up the whole continent and done every single available quest. The only one good spell I have is Resurrection, which I got by not being a mage.

Yes, but he will not get as much Rage as the warrior classes to use them as effectively.

Yes, some do, eg Lightning will strike more troops and the water pillar thing (don't know what it's called in the English version) likewise. It's more pronounced on things like Haste, Bless and the spell that gives bonus to ranged attackers, since they'll start affect all of your creatures at top level.

Sacrifice (I think that's what it will be called in English) is essential. It damages one stack of your troops and heals/revives the second. The cool part is that it can revive the strongest, level 5 troops which regular Resurrection can't, and more importantly, you can revive more troops in the target stack than you originally had . Essentially, you can clone your top units at the expense of cannon fodder (which you can then resurrect normally)


A word of warning though: Playing a mage is more difficult than warrior or paladin, because some units are immune or resistant against certain types of magic. Also, don't waste magic runes on upgrading all the useless spells you can find, since high level spells take a lot of them to upgrade and the supply will be tight.

I want to use gizmo more and don't know how control it.
How to make him to heal my troops and not to attack enemy?

From enemy what troop gizmo will chose to attack?
Sometimes he will attack small stacks of enemy archers (stack used for rechange mana with mana spring), sometimes seems to prefer giants...

[Sherwood]

Gizmo is completely random, but place it closer to enemies and it seems more likely to target them.

thanks, seems that is better to upgrade damage in this case.
