Some quests are better then others

What mission would you say is your least favorite? Me personally I think slay the dragon sucks ass. It's just not fun. I can't build anything it's just a, know what the map looks like, find the rouges den, send them to the right spots and 100 cost flags and then pray, because if your heroes are in the middle of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nowhere it won't matter if dragons are attacking your main castle. They will not help you because they can't. The maps too big, The options for building are too few, it's frustrating and not fun because you are either rolling the dice or staring at the 1 hero fighting Vandral with heal selected while your palace dies. The mission sucks. I don't even want to dignify it by beating it. What were they thinking?

Personally, I always found whether the boss was easy or not depended on getting the free level 20 adept to poison his weapon at the rogue guild. Fighting with poison is consistent even without healing spell. But fighting without poison, yeah same experience, even if you spam heal it would be such a slow fight the palace would die in the background to the non boss monsters.

I think the developer intent of this level is to get very strong solari from the fairgrounds, but you really want to at least find the rogues first ... This can be awkward because you have a brief window to get 1-2 out, then basically can't recruit for 80 seconds while waiting for the dragon to leave, then get them to explore correctly In a 2 minute grace period.

I handle this by putting default explore flags on 400, and only go back to my default 100 after I find the rogues.

My least favorite is Trade Routes - it's basically a easier version of Fertile Plains and it will not end until all 29 caravans have come even if you've already saved the needed 15.
