Even works well with hydras colours.
Will try this in my Wild Plains team I had a while back.

Always good to use Hydra, now they just need to buff the third traitšŸ˜

I have never tested Hydra before, but if you find a team you think is worthy, I will try. :wink:

The Wild Plains team I played about with was

Hydra
Gorgon
Soothsayer
Sunweaver

Sooth and Gorgon are able to generate mana for sunweaver which use to pump up Hydra and an emergency heal if needed.
Sometimes swapping Gorgon for The Bonecrusher guy, forget his name.

Will dust it off.

Hydra has always suffered in that itā€™s traitā€™s damage doesnā€™t scale. When it first came out, it had Jinx, and attacks didnā€™t really get above 20.

The best teams I have had with it rely on Entagle, since Hydraā€™s trait will still trigger. Iā€™ve not tried it with Elemaugrim yet.

If you need to enjoy yourself for a long time, give:
Hydra
Green Seer
Giant Spider
Loyalty

a try. You wonā€™t get a wee, not so wee, but a really friggin 'uge Hydra. Then youā€™ve got to let it take damage so you can win.

Personally I have had some fun with

Iā€™mā€¦ afraid of the dark (without you close to me)

(reference)

ā™Ŗ ā™« ā™Ŗ ā™« ā™Ŗ ā™« ā™Ŗ ā™« ā™Ŗ ā™« ā™Ŗ ā™« ā™Ŗ ā™« ā™Ŗ ā™« ā™Ŗ ā™« ā™Ŗ

I am the Elven Bard
I play my melody
It makes you want to cast a spell
Elwyn has got a lute, too
He always plays his chord
Donā€™t be jealous, heā€™s just my friend
But when I listen to themā€¦
Those Screaming Skulls from afar

Iā€™mā€¦ afraid of the dark without you close to meā€¦
Iā€™mā€¦ afraid of the dark without you close to meā€¦

I went out to the Forest of Thorns
And met with Lady Anariel
As she summons her Elven Star
Dark Priestess, you just ran like hell
Then you met with Draak, who made you who you are
And these were the worst screamsā€¦ Iā€™ve ever heard

And Iā€™mā€¦ afraid of the dark without you close to meā€¦
Iā€™mā€¦ afraid of the dark without you close to meā€¦

You wonā€™t be happy like this,
So listen to me play
You wonā€™t be happy with that curse
Why do you still live there
In that bleak, ghastly kingdom?
We all belong in Silverglade
Why do they keep shrieking,
when they make your friends strong?
Iā€™ll have to call The Silent Oneā€¦

Anyone tried using Abhorath as the target of her spell? He heals to full and gains attack with his own spell; now add Dark Priestessā€™ spell to his own and mayhem may ensue.

Her animation scream is ā€¦ disturbing

More disturbing than Banshee? Have not had a chance to play yet.

Sound effect can be found here:

I wonder if they hired voice actors, or if that was someone we actually know from the forum dev?

Sounds like Sirrian. .

(Itā€™s just a joke)

The same thing occurred to me. It doesnā€™t look great though - they both use purple but then combine them in a team and they both block a colour of giant spider.

An alternative that Iā€™ve tried out is gorgotha, DP, emperina and a 4th. I used herdmaster just for air link. Having a gorgotha with over 100 attack, barrier, 3 troops that can cleanse him and 75% resistance to skull damage is pretty great

Interesting troop! Wondering if a pairing with Sunweaver would make for a good combination. Casting both spells would leave you with armor gain, double attack gain, and a wash when it comes to life gain/loss. Might have to give it a go and see if it can actually be effective.

Dark Priestess voice might be @saltypatra :relieved:

Can you devs start spmething where we submit voice clips for troops? Iā€™d love to add some variety to the death screams. I do a mighty fine death scream.

Well, so far the best use is, with current buffs, Dark Priestess + Flesh Golem + Dragon Soul (or Valk) = 200 + Souls a fight.

Also, she kinda work with an Orbweaver Hero Mystic because she can help span a spider?

Bueller?

Ok , I donā€™t like her.

Thatā€™s a rubbish scream effect for her spellā€¦ sheā€™s supposed to be cool and deadly and ruthlessly manipulating life energies to both augment and pain her tormented petsā€¦ not just hurting herselfā€¦ that sound might work when she casts targeting herself, but Iā€™d have been hoping for something more elven / arcane / sinister for her spell soundā€¦

How do you know? How many times have you died?
