Impartial MASTER LIST of issues/problems

Sorry to post here "too late", but i find it bothering and unbalancing that Elemental Hauberk gives 100% resistance from all elements and it is only construction 2 or 4 and it costs only 5 earth and 5 fire gems.

Some evocations seem to have too low precision...
I'm ok with nerfed Blade Wind, but most fire and couple of other spells seem have realy low precision(Fire Flies being perhaps the worst case), excluding Fire Darts that seems to be more precise than i was in Dominions I.

NOTE:Abysians have less precision.

Is Fires from Afar instant-kill damage?

Have the artilery spells(Leprosy, Murdering Winter etc.) and assasination spells changed from Dominions I?

I don't know if it has been noticed but with Pythium/Serpent Theme you have access to some sort of acolytes. These guys are descripted as acolytes who were able to drink poison without being killed. But they don't have ant poison resistance.

BTW : is there any search engine on this forum ?

[EDIT : of course this is not of a great importance]

They have to drink poison to be promoted - and the serpent priests (or whatever they are called) are immune to poison. Acolytes haven't drank the poison yet. I think that was the idea.

The search function is in the top right corner.

Kind OT, but poison (usualy) won't hurt/kill you if it doesn't get in to the bloodstream...

In french I would have said "Autant pour moi" (my fault), I was looking for a text field

I wish I knew how the poison damage is calculated, and what does the length of the poison bar mean (I know it's relative to the strength of posion, but what does that mean exactly). Also, what's the difference in poison strength from the attack description? If it says weak posion, does that mean that it will wear off sooner, but the damage is the same, or that the damage is higher, or both? Does death posion mean that the posioned unit will always die and it cannot wear off? Are poisons cummulative, i.e. several weak posion attacks that damage the unit will be the same poison-wise as one strong poison damaging attack? This is the kind of things I would really like to see in the manual.

Sounds buggy. They should be.
