Free Update will change your hero forever! | Tiger Update Overview by @IndridCasts

i need to rework my chaos dragon now

What is the max hero level?

This doesn't look like an Age of Wonders game. 😢 It's a subpar RPG.

Time to reinstall

Its good and all but what happen to medieval society which add special hero trait? Is it gone?

I'm not sure I like overspecialization of some path that blocks me from skills from another. I liked to be able to pick both physical offense and defense. Or defense/resistance/and buffing.

And if killing momentum is now limited to warriors (despite still saying it works on magic attack kills) - it will be a big loss to rest of heroes.

In changed all my heroes in the middle of a game!!!

Hmm, it's been a while since I played, does this mean you don't get any skills from specific tomes anymore?

I hope we get to wee multiclassing for heros

Very excited.

What will happen to my ongoing games when the patch hits?. Will my skills for heroes and champ be reset

Also on consoles?

Does the tiger update have a release date yet?

I know this probably incredibly low on people's lists of thoughts. But as a console player I'm interested to see if the PS5 Pro offers AoW4 any improvement at all?

People have been so negative, but the more recent footage of even something like Bloodborne outputting a nicer image quality with zero patch or update, makes me hopeful.

Do the signature skills also GRANT an affinity point? If not, that'll really slow progression.

Don't skill trees ALSO make heroes look the same? With Free Form it was the player's choice to look the same, but with Skill Tress you're forced into specific paths.

Guys. Try playing as high culture with arctic adaptation, and push shadow tomes that have nothing to do with souls or undead.

And now Mix that with order tomes that give you unit enchantments & unlock units such as Inquisitor.

Ah, and go for -100 alignment. High culture gets nice bonuses for being pure evil

More Hybrid choices would be great, however limiting heroes to certain weapons I feel is a bad move.

This is one of the best modern RTS games to come out in the last 5+yrs

I wish we would be able to customize the units freely as well. Like forge custom armour, weapons etc. for the units... That would be a true RPG experience in AoW4. A paid DLC or whatever, just please make it happen!

WAIT A SECOND, u didn’t talk about skills from books, how do they work??? Are they gon??? My gilded mage???

Skill tree rework is awesome !

God these devs always cook so hard each update

For hero’s that have already been sent to the pantheon, can you adjust them without having to replay them to do that?

These videos are so informative and entertaining. Normally I get bored by stuff like this, but Indrid makes it fun! 😃

Great stuff but i feel like it's missing stuff for elements based. Can't seem to have a pure pyromancer mage or a pure druid plant & animal summoner.
Also no hybrids characters anymore? Can't have a death knight with raise zombies? Maybe i missed that part.

Keep refining and Ill keep sending you money - this I swear to you good sirs

Quite like the new talent system, feels much more coherent and easier to overview than scrolling endlessly

This game is fun, and I'm looking forward to having more fun in it.

Not sure about this seems to linear to me.

So many possibilities to add some more roleplay. Specially like the options for the dragons.

I love this but..why make a whole skirmisher hero tree when there is only literally ONE skirmisher weapon with no skin or roleplay options in ANY way

Great stuff

Why did classes have to be restricted??

I am addicted to skill trees. Give me more and bigger plz 😁 Both the free and paid content looks amazing. Cant wait to try it.

Yikes, what a mixed bag kind of updates.
Spellcasters can no longer take the absolutely vital run skill to disengage from melee? Oof.
No more randomized signature skills is a small upside tho.
Does this also mean that unlocking tomes no longer grants access to their respective hero traits? Or how is that supposed to work now?

I really like this update! Only drawback to me is limitation on weapon hero can use, no more wizard kings that like to smash their foes by giant axe (even oficial Yaka uses it!) =( And what weapon is considered to be used by skirmishers? Only corsair pistol+sabre?

Some of the hero ambitions you guys made are super specific that you’d have to build a realm with it in mind. Like Crusader and fighting undead or demon enemies. Yet others like prospector or shepherd can be gained by doing what you’d do naturally. So you get rank 4 super quickly or you get nothing at all.

After watching this video, the idea comes to my mind - is it worthy to play as Wizard King now.

This is AWESOME

Do tomes still add new skill options for heroes?

Bro forgot the background music.

Wouldn't it be possible to add fairy lords in the future? We already have big dragons, eldritch sovereigns and next be giants, and we would also like something small, and fairies are interesting and have many possibilities for visuals and skills, and some kind of fairy form would be great, we already have people, elves, dwarfs and many animals forms, or at least some type of transformation into a fairy like we have the transformation into angels and demons, and some more fey wildlifes like leprechaunts, satyrs, dryads or other different types of fairies, or a Satyr form wouldn't be bad (the lower half of the body is animal with hooves and the upper half is human ) and some Centaur transformation would be great

Great rework, only the dragons make me a little sad that they can't choose a class in a different way and every nature dragon has to be a support, astral dragon mage, etc.

It wouldn't be bad to expand the mage skill tree in the future with some spells like stone wall, which could create an obstacle in the way and protect against shooting, or a fire wall ability, or some cloud spell which would protect against shooting, or some poison cloud, or some other interesting skills. you can play with mages very nicely and create interesting skills and different paths for the mages that they can take even if it blocks other paths

In the future, wouldn't it be possible to create heroes (no ruler) who could appear in the game together with randomly generated heroes?

Amazing rework. It would just require some kind of dual dagger/sword weapon and a rogue class or an expansion of the ranger class with a smoke cloud, some blink for example and some form of assassin strike or assassin ability, which is already in the game. But very good work

Skill Trees! We are eating so good!
