So if i make a little combination of few things from campaign, the int phodom is unbalanced
If u combine the aura of fire + magic aura + phodom's set + zocmo's set/unholy cloak/ring of thunder(the idea here is the invisiblity) you can easily kill bosses without even hitting them.
Does they hit back to you?

Yea I get the point but you didn't gave me any idea how to fix the problem. If it's even the problem. I've been thinking that it's in the end fine. I mean you can't make all your characters magic based so you're forced to have maximum of 2 characters magic damage based.
No ofc they can't hit me back..they just run like helpless chickens  ;D
I don't get your point of forcing to playthorough a specific way. I mean i don't have problem in playing that way..As i gave up & now trying int phodom. & trust me he is op. But i feel unfair for strength phodom. & its not just 2 chars.. all three of them are overpower if they go for int build. If you want i can show you unbalance in int & agi fradz also. & I don't know if you made u unholy cloak's invisibility intentionally or its bug...

Don't think that on the early stages of campaign you can benefit from it so much as it could be called "abuse". And from the stage when you got Phodom's Set (Ch.9!) it won't work as easily boss killing - bosses has a lot of events, and you've also got two other characters - I mean if Phodom's dmg is only aura dmg from invisibility - therefore there is no tank and you'r lose more lifes on such boss then if you'd use Phodom as tank/dd.
I mean that you can be sure that something is imbalanced only if you've tried it during the whole campaign and not in one and only situation.
For sure the campaign is nearly 99% balanced, exceptions are non significant (in my opinion).
The only one thing is that Lizard in Ch.9 (don't remember his name) and his devour ability - it kills too fast and has too fast cd - I suppose that atleast one of this features should be nerfed.
Other moments of campaign that affect on the gameplay significantly only connected with bugs (Aero's most hated work :-X).

well i noticed this unbalance in chapter 6. And then decided to give up & start again from chapter one..you won't believe me but now iam having hard time to get permanent attribute bonus from ruby axe & magartha's set...As everything dies way too fast.. I also like playing op heroes..but its not good for campaign to be unbalanced..& in chapter 6 killing zor'zo/ xod /dark messiah was child's play.. & btw at that time i was playing phodom as tank & strength.. So i didn't had int spells. I had all strength based spells. Except aura of fire. then i got idea of combining invisibility & passive area damage. I had aura of fire lvl 1.. I gave magic balls & other magic damage items to phodom just to check that how it works. You won't believe me its was damm easy. All I did is gave unholy cloak to phodom as it gives you permanent invisibility. Just click Z on target. & go for snack break. When you come back you'll see that poor mini bosses are dead. & btw why would I'll use my other 2 characters if I have 1 op char. I didn't used even fire cloak or didn't had high level aura of fire at that time. & btw even if I have to use all there chars I can make my whole team invisible, right from chapter 6. Where all char meet.
1.Fradz-invisible strike
2.Phodom-unholy cloak
3.galeoth-zocmo's set
Idk why you don't get the point.
Its very unbalanced.
Anybody can exploit the magic damage build.
Just give all chars magic aura. & invisibility.
For phodom its not just magic aura. He can be op right from start. & do you know that you can buy fire cloak right from start. But i didn't bought because I was already having hard time in getting permanent stats from ruby axe & all. & you know how I got stats..?
I have to drop all magic damage giving items & use tank items so that bosses don't die easily. I spent more then half & hour at archmage just to get stats from hits. As he is only one who got heal. not just in chapter 1, in chapter 4 & 5 I use sunrise set items & ancient leaf & all that kind of defense stuff so I can get stats. As we can't turn off the effects of magic aura/aura of fire.
