| ===== Weaknesses ===== | ===== Weaknesses ===== |
| What are the nation's weaknesses? | Ur units trade attack density for HP and Strength, which isn’t always a good trade in Dominions. Gold for gold, you may find Ur’s melee troops underperforming against enemy elites, especially high defense troops that might otherwise get harassed down by human-sized enemies with 50% more attack density. |
| | |
| | Ur may struggle against elemental resistance blesses, as elemental damage from Poison, Cold and Lightning is generally your best way to take down hard targets. An awake or dormant Pretender can help in the early game while you research higher level magic counters. |
| | |
| | Finally, Ur is a very gem-hungry nation and can have troubles if site searching is not in your favor. ??Kusarikku#3068??s, ??Ugallu#3095??s, and ??Anzu#3064??s are often much-needed problem solvers with their [[Magic Weapons]] and [[Spirit Sight]], Shaman Thugs want gear and big AoE20 buffs now cost gems as well. In multiplayer games, try to be diligent trading the gems you can’t use ({{:misc:magic:firegem.png?15&nolink}}Fire, {{:misc:magic:astralpearl.png?15&nolink}}Astral, {{:misc:magic:glamourgem.png?15&nolink}}Glamour) for the ones you can. |
