Information about The Warlock of Firetop Mountain is still incomplete. S'il vous plaît, aidez-nous à remplir les détails du jeu en utilisant ceci formulaire de contact.

This guide provides a basic primer on the game’s combat mechanics as well as a bestiary for every creature in the game. The bestiary includes each creatures’ statistiques, passive abilities, and special attacks.

There will probably be errors with some of the information as I didn’t have the desire to triple-check everything and do extra playtesting for some of the more obscure things so if you find any errors, or have new information to add, then leave a comment with proof of your claim and I’ll look into it.

Combat Mechanics

COMBAT ORDER

Combat in this game is turn-based but all actions are resolved according to the four phases below:

1. Sélection
   This phase is when creatures will either turn in a certain direction to indicate that they will move during the Mouvement phase or shake to indicate that they will attack during the Attaquer phase. A creature can also turn and shake which indicates that they will attack. This phase is when you will choose whether to move or attack.
2. Mouvement
   This phase occurs next which means that attacks will always miss a creature that has selected to move (exceptions aside).
3. Attaquer
   This phase determines the order of each creatures’ attack and then resolves each attack and applies the damage; pourtant, I am not sure how the game determines this order. En outre, there can only be one « clash » per turn which guarantees that damage will be dealt when attacking, or being attacked by, multiple creatures at once.
4. End-of-Turn
   This phase is reserved for status effects such as Poison, Brûler, and Regen to take place.

This means that much of the game comes down to learning creatures’ patterns so you can predict where they will move during their turn if you are attacking them or move out of their attack range.

MECHANICS

• Créatures’ attacks are telegraphed by their token « tremblement » en place. There are a few rare exceptions to this and those creatures have the Cloak capacité. If they didn’t shake then they will move to an adjacent square.
• Creatures either move in the direction they are facing or by strafing left or right. The game ends up being a guessing game and some creatures are easier to predict than others. There are also some exceptions where enemies will move backwards but these are very rare and I believe I have only seen it with Cryptworms et Sandworms.
• Creatures usually have a set pattern that they follow which will typically involve using each of their attacks once and then moving. Some creatures differ slightly and move twice in a row (such as Giant Rats) mais j'ai’t listed each pattern here, especially because your actions can influence these patterns.
• Creatures will break their standard pattern if you are too far away and will move up to you until they are generally within three squares of you, at which point they will begin their pattern. Creatures with long-range attacks are an exception to this.
• Creatures which are facing a certain direction cannot attack the squares to their sides (or back) unless they have a special attack that allows them to do so. This means that it is almost always safe to move to an enemy’s flank when they are preparing for an attack.
• If you are attacking multiple squares and a Grand-size creature is occupying more than one of the affected squares, it will take damage from that attack for each square that it is occupying. This makes a character like Gilfane especially effective at taking down Grand creatures.

REMARQUES

• If an entry has multiple names, this means that they all share the same stats.
• If an entry has multiple names or types but has different stats, their respective stats will be denoted by the corresponding bullet points. For example if Commoner A, Commoner B, and Militia are listed together but give a different amount of Souls then there will be three bullet points with the three different Souls values (one for each, respectivement).
• If an entry has multiple names, le Special Attacks are shared between all of them unless otherwise specified.
• A creature will always deal the amount of damage listed in the Dommage column of the table unless they use a Attaque spéciale which specifies how much damage it does.
• A creature can have multiple Passive Abilities ou Special Attacks and each one is denoted using bullet points.
• UN Attaque normale that has multiple properties is denoted using bullet points.
• UN Attaque spéciale that has multiple modifiers is denoted using + symboles.
