The Black Knight has lower hitpoints and damage, but much higher defense, higher speed, and gets armour, polearm, warcry and victory rush which all help keep him in the fight much longer and makes them useful for all classes, even those without much healing.Įdit: And Frostling Sorcerer is a great combo. Personally I'd rate them as the second-best tier 2 cavalry unit, behind the Black Knight. If you're a Rogue or something they're far more difficult to use.

So how good Mammoth Riders are is more or less dependent on how much healing you have. but then needing 3 turns to heal up again to a useful level. I often had Mammoth Riders do great in one battle.

Low defense and low speed make a big difference.

Enemy goes squash.īuff them with a Frost Witch to give them 3 damage channels and fire resistance for even more fun.īut I do not think they are unbalanced or broken or anything. (Human Knights are tier 3, don't count.) With devastating charge and killing momentum. Frostling Mammoth Riders are amazing tier 2 cavalry, yes.
