Cold damage

Post by FiascoR »

Hello. I´m still a bit new to this game and I'm wondering which units deal cold damage as i´ve only seen very few. Also if you have any gameplay advice or tips about those units i'd appreciate it

In a MP context there are only two units and their advancements with cold damage.

I am speaking about the Saurian Augur (Drakes) and Dark Adept (Undead).

The Saurian Augur acts as mobile squishy healer, doing like 5x3 cold magical ranged damage. I mostly use them only as healer and damage support. As soon as he levels up to an Soothsayer I feel pretty save in campaigns with Drakes. Don't use them against Skeletons.

The Dark Adept is a pure damage oriented unit with no melee attack, so don't use them as frontline units. Use them best against high defense targets, cause magical attacks hit always to 70%.
Cold damage is reliable damage source, cause almost none has high resist against it, except for the undead.
Drakes and Saurians will fall quick against cold damage.
