[HELP] One man doomstack

[Hävet]

Hi all, I tried to search information about HOW TO MAKE a one man doomstrack but there are only videos of them when they are completed or versus 1 - 2 armies.

Does anybody have information/guide/tutorial/video/web or something where I can learn how to make a One man doomstack please?

Sorry if my english is not 100% good, I speak spanish. Thanks!

It's really a simple concept, take a lord who is either obviously good in melee or magic (or both), like Tyrion or Malekith and level them up in a way that boosts their combat prowess (the yellow line and their unique skills). Then give them good equipment like talisman of preservation and the like to increase their ward save/ physical resistance. Finally defeat other legendary lords to gain their defeat traits, the most notable being isabella to give them regen. Optionally give them the sword of khaine to dial them up to 11

Congratulations, you've made a 1 man doomstack

I found this link https://totalwarwarhammer.fandom.com/wiki/Legendary_Lord_defeat_traits for traits. But I have a little question, is it possible to make this in Vortex Campaign? Because I just have TW2 and all the DLCs but not TW1 or TW3.

So, I need a Legendary for example Taurox, create a decent army and then just go for legendary lords?

You can probably make a very powerful Taurox on Vortex, but you're missing out on some traits that are only available on Mortal Empires.

Your best choice is probably to head over to Ulthuan and take the Sword of Khaine. It doesn't have any drawbacks for Beastmen, and gives you 30% ward save at max level among some other nice things.

Looking over the Vortex defeat traits, some notables:

Elltharion +10 missile resistance.
Kroq Gar and Nakai +10 melee defense each
Throt +10% hit points
Markus Wulfheart +10% missile resist
Luthor Harkon +15% magic resistance

There's an item in the Rewards of Dread called the Champion's Essence that gives you another +10% ward save, mild regeneration and Perfect Vigor. So you should pick that up as well.

-they have to be unbreakable
-they need hp regen
-they have to be built for being alone which means no red line and almost none for the blue line unless the yellow line is done.

No, Taurox is a lord that can get regen with his skill line so you don't have to worry about missing out on isabellas trait

i was refering to more then just taurox and the most important part i said first which is the unbreakable which you get early game through crown of comand and from killing the everchosen as a trait assuming you dont have some other means that differs from heroes.

after you get those 3 things you stack resistances which other posts have mentioned more and the only thing after that is having some form of aoe vortex kill spell. for turox thats the sword of kein might of misspelled it which spawns on the donut where the high elves are.

op if you are doing it with turox the high elves are your first target. most of what you want comes from them and the sword of kein is a kind of end all be all you want more then anything because of how well it enables beastmen in particular. from their you can goto lustria for the missle resistance which is where markus and gorrok and magic resistance from lock heart is. etherian is a high elf donut tyrion gives melee atk stats which is nice and you shouldnt have to much trouble making freinds with the dark elves. if you want. you dont have to. if you wait until the chaos spawn to go for the hp from throt you should have plenty of time to get everything and raid your way back up along the coast stacking any of the traits you find along the way.

for traits from lords ect here

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1275354592

its just my 2 cents but after you kill naggarond once kill the high elves then lustria and then kill bretonnia hopefully to catch hemrich for the magic resistance and charge around into the chaos area to back door throt.

turox is the only hero that can just ignore everything and laughably do a total war even on lego might need lightning strike for higher difficulties.

edit in i shouldnt need to say this but just so its clear you probably want units until you get the three things i mentioned and the sword of kein

You've already hit the cap on Magic and missile damage resist. The physical resist needs pumping up though.

Edit: you should also recruit a full stack of trash infantry and get at least half of them killed until you level Gore-Drenched up.

Hi! I have a little question, is there a cap for traits? If yes, whats the cap?


Thanks

[Lack of Stuff]

90% is the resist cap. The Ward Save counts as both physical and magical resist.

There is a cap for traits, once you reach it then no further traits will be gained. I believe the limit is 30, but could be wrong on that.
