The game is good but the melee isn't much of a problem if you check out the waves before starting a quest. I still haven't found if melee has a bigger advantage than just making crossbowmen or magicians. The game is pretty good has a lot of depth

I found a hero (poison, gentlemen whatever guild) who has thieves and they OWN! At low levels they might not be the best units, but if you improve marksmanship and elemental, they quickly becone too powerful for the majority of enemies. They also give you a lot of extra money and items with their looting ability and they have great firerate and 2 range, so you don't miss the opportunity of landing a hit. Lately, I find myself giving it elemental changes (I get a lot of items so I have plenty of these, around 30 per match) and winning everything with just basic units. Remember: thieves, you'll find them useful.

Archwizards (Because of their range), Skirmishers (Strength) and Witch Doctors (Slow Poison) and my main units.

I like engineers to, but I haven't found a scroll that changed the basic unit to that of the kingdom with engineers

I agree, melee units usefulness is.... limited. That said, advanced melee units can do massive damage when leveled up. So i usually just make one later in the game at a chokepoint or narrow corner near the beginning so he can get lots of hits in and weaken all enemies.

But, other than that, I always used ranged/magic units. I never buy heroes who have a melee basic unit since you can get raped early on by flying waves if you don't have elemental advantage ranged/magic units.

Anyways, the effects I like best are berserk, consecration, and the one that gives you more damage based on the number of kills (makes the unit a beast late game).

Well I looked it up on Protector 3 and it seems like consecration makes your unit do bonus damage to enemy that are strong against its element.

Agree... melee is useless (ty 4 thief tip)

another tip: THE GREAT HYDRA realy easy^^ use a arch wiz, augemented and ur done (upgrade posion)

some levels are to hard... all waves have antoher strong element ability.
Most of the time I lose because there are a lot of enemies REALY CLOSE TO EACH OTHER!! but you dont know.. only the amount is shown...

any tips to beat a lot of enemies close to each other? (technomancher not an option... the shoot to slow)
