You've killed our god! No, it was suicide!

Another battle, the same game. This time in the arena.

Yeah, I killed his god. His blind, mute, one-armed god. Just how stupid is the AI to send him into the arena in the first place?

Cant the AI remember what I fielded in the last battle? Or does the AI only look at the fact it was a mere crone without paying attention to the stats? (hp 507. Magic Resistance: 26. Strength 211. Attack 75. Defense 81. The lowest magic path is 11.)

By Chuthulu, how in the nine other dimensions did you get a crone with those stats??? ANYTHING with those stats???

I don't want to meet THAT crone in a dark alley!
Well, to be honest, I don't really want to meet any crone anywhere... oh well

Wishes. Lots and lots of wishes. I've got the pearls and nothing else I need them for.

still, theres a max of 11 wishes there as atleast 1 path is lvl 11 and you can only wish for power once so...

Partially right.

Wishing for magic power tops out. I've got a couple of items on that boost magic beyond that.

I've wished for power many times and watched my stats go up and up. It *IS* cumulative.

Actually, the stats are all but irrelevant, anyway. I'm wearing a wraith crown and the undead have done all the fighting for me.

Dominions 2 and all my tests in memory disagree but ill believe you.

edit: lol your right,

Maybe it didn't work in 2. I didn't start playing until 3.

She's now up to hp: 1307. Str: 531. Attack: 155. Defense: 161. Precision: 153. I see no way to wish to increase the other stats.

If it doesn't work, how is she getting stronger? Right now she's doing nothing but sitting off in the corner with a repeat order to cash wish.

Since the early stages of Dominions_2 the community has recommended the AI opponents be improved enough to not send its pretender into the arena. It should be relatively easy to fix within a patch since each nation only has one pretender... thus if a unit is marked as a pretender deny the option for the arena.

Perhaps the developers will include this within a patch or sequel. This small fix provides a drastic game improvement for the AI opponents.
