Elephants in RS 2.0

[torzsoktamas]

I want to ask that will in RS2.0 elephants be as powerfull as it is in vanilla rome?I find elephants weaker in RS1.5 than in vanilla rome.I think it would be good that elephants be in RS2.0 as powerfull as in vanilla rome(or slightly better),not as powerfull as it is in SPQR(I played SPQR 6.4 and it took a full roman army to kill two units of elephants).

Elephants are already powerful, in real life if roman infantry all threw there pila at it, it would be bon boyage and goodnight, but not even 1000 pila can take down 1 elephant in this game.

Weaker ? they have 15 HP... its just units in RS is stronger, thats why there weaker

I think they are strong in 1.5!
They are not able to break an enemy formations, but when you involve the enemy in a hand to hand combat with your infantry and then charge in their back, your elephants will cause a massacre.

I know they die hard but it takes a hour to kill a cohort(after the charge).My elephants don't die but when I engege the enemy(after the charge)they kill few-they just walk here-there(in vanilla they stand and hit the enemy-they fight).Perhaps it would be a good idea to make them more agressive(so they fight when they are et the enemy)but with lesser HP so they die more easely.

just edit the attack of them then, but there already invincible so its stupid.

I don't know how to edit,but I think I leave them.I will try them in custom battle another time.I don't know I fought with elefants two times end until i killed 100 men with them,I killed 200 with a medium cavalry(not routing enemies)and with one of my infantrys:150,110,120.They were wery effective because of that they ruined the enemys formation,but the reason I said that the are weaker that they walked near the enemy but they don't standed to hit the enemy(like in canilla rome).Theres no problem if they will be the same in RS2.0 cas they are wery usefull but not for killing,but for riuning the enemy formation.

In 1.5v, even the armor elephant only got 3HP, which is five times less HP than original version. Yesterday AI used two units of horse archers killed two units of my armor elephant, I felt it is way too weak, should be at least 10HP for armor elephant and 5 for regular elephant.

All 3 types are at 15hp for me, i just checked on them..:hmmm: maybe you edited them ?
