Default Re: Wasted 75 earth gems on \"Hidden in the Sand!\" BUG?

did you cast it in a wasteland?

(I was afraid you did this in PPP but there you can't have 75 gems already )

To get an army, you need to cast it in wasteland. To have a better chance of getting mages, you need magic scales, I think. Turmoil and luck scales help too, supposedly.

omg!........ for 75 gems it still should have done something more than a single commander.

Oh well.

Yep, I've cast hidden in the snow 3 times, hidden in the sand once, all in MP games for a grand total of 1 mage.

Pre-patch I got one D1 mage out of two Hidden in Snow casts, and something like 20 units total.

Post-patch I got one W2E2D2 mage, and 27 soldiers (plus the lord), from one cast. Order-3, Luck-3, Magic-1 scales. It's not bad if you've found an enchantment discount site.

Hidden in Sand's description doesn't mention the wasteland requirement ATM, but it was thought more important to release fix for the then-newest iteration of scale bug. The description of it and Hidden in Snow will most probably be corrected for the next patch. The scale boosts will should also be added there.
