Majesty 2 tricks and tips

Tells you tips for Majesty 2

Overview

Majesty 2 is, like some of you realized is a very hard game. I've been playing for some time now and I am making this guide to help you play Majesty 2.

Guardhouses

Guardhouses are important buildings which fire arrows and send guards to patrol. They are effective in protecting boundries from weaker enemies (generally below 400 health). For enemies like Ogres a single guardhouse won't stand a chance. In places like this build multiple guardhouses and have peasants for reapairs it's still good to have heros there too though. They are useful in defense but weak on attack. That is what you have heros for. Aslo for the guards I think their stats are WAY TOO weak. A ratman would easly beat them up. In my opinin they should have higher attack and lets say 30 meele reststance, 30 ranged resistance and 20 magic resistance along with 10 attack.

Heroes

Heroes are important warriors that attack monster lairs and defend your town. They are important and its very good to have them get levels ( I find destroying easy monster dens good for this). Heros are recruited in guilds, which are buildings.

Clerics

Clerics are probably you're most effective hero. They can heal which proves EXTREMELY usful. I see a novice cleric attacked by 5 serpents and the cleric holds her ground and wins! The reson for this is beacause after using their attack they heal themselves making them pretty impossible for weaker enemies to beat. But they have a weakness, which are enemies like ogres that push back. They get stuff next to a building and for the ogre, it's easy picking.

Warriors

Warrriors are your only guild melee unit. They are tough and are useful for frontline fighting. For there best effect, upgrade their armor and weapons early.

Rangers

These are good early game units. They are cheap and inflict good damage on enemies. they also love exploring so they will easily do exploration quests without you paying them much.

Wizards

Fragile as glass, and half minded wizards may seem ridiculous early in the game. They have ridicioulosly low health and are pretty impetous. Even so they're "Ice Arrow" spell is a need when fighting lots of enemies like werewolves, ogres, bearmen and vampires. The reason for this is that this spell freezes.

Rogues

Fast swordfighters. They are a bit like a mix between rangers and swordsmen. I really recomend their "stun" ability.

City Making Trick

This is a trick for making a city in Majesty 2. As you might see, you can't continue a game when you win it. My trick- Don't win. I used this on the campaign when I was fighting Andrevus. If you have a lvl 2 wizards guild, and destroy the monster lairs than you can build! The secret is to not get close to Andrevus's place and don't attack it until you want to win. If you do, then save the game, go ahead and win, but you can still load the city.

Wizards are much stronger on 5 level and above. They need to learn shield and rain of fire to be valuable.

whats the trick for getting past the dwarven gratitude in the form of the orb crash when you get to snow whites sacred valley?

[tomasz.magierowski]

I had to restart a few times too. Try to keep all your building in one area, so the fighters protect each other. Also I recommend destrorying the bearman den up north near the port with lightning (ie. build a wizard tower somewhat nearby and strike the den with the lightning strike.) Once you have money also remember to build guardhouses near the sewers.

Happy?

Jesus do some proof reading. Check "they're" (they are) "there" (over there) and "their" (ownership) homophones.

[IrrerTigga]

Is there an way to quick build a city? I am playing this game since 3 days and yet I am stuck at the rat king quest. the damn king attacks after short time and I can not even build something up without getting it destroyed. Any help here would be nice.

[tomasz.magierowski]

yeah I forgot about that -_-. Rouges with stun are almost as good as ice arrow spell.

[Durag Destroyer]

Only issue is that rogues are melee as well, upgraded they do improved damage as well as stun.

[Sir_Lukasz]

nice but add some dwarves and the freaky elves which have "fun" even though great guide
