Hi! Would you like to transfer this modification to the third part of the game?

lol, ya i tried. thought id share

@Dead213End The mod description does state that the sun dragon mount is only available to the Caledor NPC minor faction and when explicitly playing Imrik. I guess I can see the confusion but I personally didn't suspect confederation to float the privilege to an outside faction.

You did say you're Eataine.
Plus I'm not surprised confederation doesn't keep that mount, it can be pretty buggy with them.

@author Ok so I'm playing the Vortex campaign with Eataine (Tyrion). I confederated Imrik and Mikaela (the starting Fire Mage), well she isn't able to mount her Sun Dragon anymore. I was like oh crap, so I looked at another Fire Mage I had with Incendiary, she was missing the Sun Dragon mount too.

Just noticed the comment about them being recruitable from the dragon buildings, even though they're beefed up nobles and use the nobles tab and stated as nobles in the mod description?
Please consider addending this to the description as otherwise their source is not immediately clear.

I beg you, please make this compatible with Custom Lord Creation so we can make them incendiary.
I apologize if this is already the case, I say this preemptively as I took a few minutes to test but couldn't make it to the point I could recruit a dragon mage. I built the noble building and confirmed they come from there, but none were available. Maybe I have to build the mage building as well? I don't have time to get to that point atm however and am knee-deep in a Vampire Coast campaign already, but am looking toward the future and just have this gut feeling they aren't compatible based on current experience with modded heroes and lords.

@Cataph : HELLO

Is there an updated version compatible with OFS?

K. Ill do that in the next few days or take it down if i dont have time. Ty for response.

nah, please never do that.

you just have to have pack name priority and upload the files you want to be used instead.

I posted a mod that reskins the dragon mages. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2394375416&fbclid=IwAR2hfZJ2gkSvun929cKpe_1VS5Ru5YTUaDI0-SpvE-7XVvdkfhXc1Muy-N0
I'm not sure how to make it a submod so i just copied all the original files. Is that ok?

nah

Hey Cataph I love this mod its one of my overall favorites! Any chance in the future seeing a dragon mage lord added to the roster?

Thanks for the update, great mod.

Not sure about anyone else but I've really been hoping for "dragon dragon dragon". So glad to see it added.

- Dragonmage is now recruited from the dragon chain. Whatever didn’t work the other two times I tried this is now fine. Whatev.
- Still a noble but it fits them. The other tab is too crowded, plus probably still issues with female defaults.
- Fire Mage can get a Sun Dragon again, but only if they are recruited by Caledor or Imrik’s factions.
- dragon dragon dragon.
- Flipped the can_brace flips.

I think it would look better if the helmet is the same color as the armor. I find it annoying to have green armor and a red helmet as avelorn.

Why does one of the variants always have a red helmet but different color armor such as green or blue when paying different factions? I feel the colors clash.

PFM is not a good indicator of updated states. :P

So, this mod has a lot of yellow warnings in PFM. I'm guessing it's still safe to use in this un-updated state?

Do your mods like this add a lot of loading time going from battle to campaign map?

nice job but why taking away the fire mage's dragon tho

those effects are dummies, you're not losing anything.

I found that after my Dragon Mages acquired Dragon Armour, Dragon Armour was also displayed in the mount slot. When Dragon Mages rides the Sun Dragon, the effect of Dragon Armour disappears, which is very frustrating.

Is possible to make it so that Imrik starts with one instead of a regular fire mage? For reasons....lol

is this compatible with 'sons of asuryan'?

Nice, I think removing the fire dragon from the fire mage is a great move! Would you consider making a male variant of the Archmage?

Anyone aware of a skill dump mod that works with the heroes in this mod, i usually play with +skill points per level. if not i will make one.

@Cataph
Is it possible/doable to make this mod change the Fire Mage in Imrik's starting army (in both campaigns) into a Dragon Mage? (maybe with the new Incendiary trait :p) Y'know he'd take a proppa Dragonboi of Caledor with him rather than some generic rando Mage who cannot into dragons.

Can the Dragon Mage get the Incendiary trait?

I mean its your mod you do as you please, but nothing you said merits the actual removal.

Look, it's pretty simple, I think. CA didn't budget or plan for an actual dragonmage hero, so they slapped the fire mage with a dragon, which they aren't supposed to get, but it works as a cheeky and easy win move.
With this, you get the actual dragonmage. The basic mage+dragon goes back to being something that isn't supposed to be there.


The removal is stayin'.

Removing fire mage dragons was unnecessary imo. Goodbye fire mage doomstack :(

The comments here remind me of the best song ever.

Dragon! Dragon! Rock the Dragon!
Dragon Ball Z!
Dragon! Dragon! Rock the Dragon!
Come get me!

(Dragon Ball Z!)

Dragon! Dragon! Rock the Dragon!
Dragon Ball Z!
Dragon! Dragon! Rock the Dragon!
Come get me!
Dragon! Dragon! Rock the Dragon!
Dragon Ball Z!
Dragon! Dragon! Rock the Dragon!
Come, a-come get me!

Dragon Ball Z!
Dragon Ball Z!

I never did figure out what show it came from.

tbh i love the mod but i hate that you removed the fire mages dragon mount, you should consider doing a alt mod that doesn't remove it, or not, just feedback

@Cataph
Not a big deal but you might want to give the new "Knights of Caledor" faction access to Dragon Mages in Custom Battle when you next update the mod (or maybe you already added it but my mod didn't update properly).

@Sjonnar
hm, weird. Will sniff about.


And please stop asking about a skill point dump, ask the extra skill point mods or the ones that add dumps.

Will this mod be using the new costume model when its finished. I saw a screenshot of the model and it looks really good

Nevermind, that's a bug, and I figured out how to deal with it.

I also found another bug: Dragon Mages don't count against the Noble unit cap.

Finally, could you add a skill point dump, please?

Considering the foot-dragon armour shows dummy effects only, that's not really possible, if you see the dragon you'll get the dragon stats, which happen to include the actual armour buffs.

Is it intended that Dragon Mages have to choose between dragon armor and the dragon mount? Because right now I have a lv20 Mage on the sun dragon and he has only 15 armor and 10 fire resist. The dragon armor is shown as equipped but is not giving the bonuses, and the slot is greyed out so I can't put another armor on.

Echoing the posters below; it would indeed be great to have a proper Dragon Mage of Caledor to accompany Imrik in his quest to catch em' all instead of "generic Fire Mage with a Sun Dragon mount option to make do as a Dragon Mage".

Definitely would be fitting! It seems to be CA's intention to have a mage on dragon with Imrik as well, and Cataph's is much better than CA's

Hey Cataph, want to start off by saying thanks for making this mod. It does a great job bringing this hero from the tabletop to the game.

I tried the Imrik campaign out a little bit this morning and I noticed he started out with a fire elven mage. Knowing how flavorful your mod is for caledor, i thought would be great to replace that fire elven mage with a dragon mage.

Not sure how easy that is, but thought id mention it.

Danke!

- Added to new factions.
- Sun dragon mount on Fire Mage hero is disabled in campaign.

I've never noticed before as I often play Alarielle so the focus is more on her maidens which you get plenty of. I'm guessing that Dragon Mages are still tied to that capacity also?
Ok at least I know it's not a bug. Personally I'd like them to be different but that's my preference!

Yeah, technically I don't think it should until the second tier. It's not the only building with +capacity on later levels only.

Hey dude, I'm not sure if this is meant to be the case or what but Elven Gardens isn't giving me another capacity when building it for a second time in a new city (different province). I'd expect it to do so although hero capacity is totally different than allowing recruitment access. I would also not expect it to give me another hero if I built it in a town in the same province.

Is it normal not to give a new hero in my situation? I'm using SFO2 but not sure who (if an error) could fix it.

Thanks in advance.

Love the mod!! Cannot wait to see how you get creative and update it with the new addition of Fire Lore archmages !!!

thank you for these days Mr
