I made this map from scratch. Everything you see is made by me, except for icons (thanks to CRAZYRUSSIAN) and models (Blizzard Entertainment).
If you are not in credits list and you recognize a model or icon of yours, please let me know.
Map is still in beta phase and everything you see can be changed.
Map is protected.
Tactics for bosses can be found here: Desert Winds: Tactics

woo good game, the bosses are alittle easy, i soloed the wind boss, with little effort, and taking less then 200 dmg the whole time, i used no cheats...
i have a few suggestions, i would like to see more playable classes....
mostly ranged classes, and mayb a few more healing ones mayb, make the bosses harder would be cool aswell....
i am writing this as i am playing, so see you i wanna play it more!
seeing as its still in beta, i wont rate it on imbalances, which most of its not
balanced 3/5
overall hardness 3/5
items 3/5 -
-most the items had the same amount of damage
-few differant stat changes
amount of time it took me to kill all bosses 60 mins
and actual rating would be 4/5
with the overall look of the game, its badass
but other then that needs work,
all the spells i found to be ineresting,
but please make more ^^
since its a fun game, still in its beta....
keep working on it, since i like it ^^
Earthshaker
>><> Fire <><<
this spec, i am assuming is going to be the high damage single target spec
if u can combo the abilities right, you will become almost completly unstopable, you should hit for around 2-300 dmg on your flame strike spell, and thats your weakest one....
his ult is a High damage AOE -bladestorm spell-
-this spell should be subjected to balance, if i do say so, since my damage is 1000, every hit that lands
-if used in sync, with his Third, rage ability
his ult has the potential to nock down bosses,
hitting for 200% damage, you can easily do 4000 - 5000 in under 6 secounds
dmg with it alone...
i have downd the lizard withing 6 secounds, ither the bosses need buffed or the Bladestorm needs nerfed, however, its an awsome game
Well I will wait few new update to write full review!
I really liked models, abilities, descriptions, how you created stats system, minimap picture, terrain is good, attachment system etc etc!
You know all that already
But I don't like icons (blizzard ones with custom imported was bad choice this time because of 2 different art stiles)
Game interface isn't changed at all, this one need even new UI!
Also one last thing map is 2 small, maybe will you create next level in form of new map, maybe will you just resize this one who knows but I will like to see huge map with large number of enemies (you can reduce damage hp etc of created trolls and increase their number )! I don't know but main problem with this one will be small size, sooner or latter!
This game was fun. (4/5) My suggestions are: - Make more items drops
- some spots are empty
- Orc interface fits this theme better
-please fix the trouble with the stacked doodas (brown walls) and mention that the map is protected
Could you share the custom combat system with us? l'm very interested in it.
it's made so that it works only with these spells/heroes and it's not very flexible, but when I decide to release unprotected versions, I will do that...
I think you need to add 1 more hero or delete 1 slot!
We need 1 hero who is based just on healing spells!Because when I played cleric my mates died, I was alone I just changed my class and tanked him and killed him!
Or add that we cant change our class when we are in combat and I dont get talent tree.I dont know when I take that talent.For me talent tree was easier in you first map !
Hey, this map is amazing, even better than Growling winds I gotta say.
Although, there are few things (Yes, I know the work is in progress and the map is already amazing ;D!) That could be added. I know you're a human not a robot and you can't do everything so fast although I'd like to suggest some things:
-As everyone already said - More classes
-The Growling Winds have been kinda abandoned in the half, why did you leave the Growling winds instead of fusing these two maps? There was a lot of terrain added, you could've made a troll dungeon there, give those 4 brand new classes, make some quests Really think about it , if you'd fuse Growling Winds with Desert Winds it'd be an awesom RPG not a dungeon crawler!
This was just my suggestions, I know they might take a lot of work but well
Besides, the whole map is just f****ng amazing, I've also used to play WoW a lot and I find it ultra similar that's why I like it a lot Really great job, you're amazing 5/5
-Also, the charge spell of the 1st class (Destroyer?) is bugged - When you use it you get teleported around the middle of the map and there are many trolls and you get killed.
-The codes are easily hackable - my friend instead of "D" wrote "d" and instead 30 str he had 102.
-Is level 9 the maximum? We got with 3 friends to level 9, can't get further and it's too hard to kill any boss - help!.
I know the game is still in progress, don't get mad that there are so many suggestions, but just want you to know my ideas Really big thanks for creating such a great map so I am not getting bored to hell at warcraft 3 !
P.S:
Custom models are f***ing win best armors from WoW ! The spells are also great looking Also, do not share ( as one guy suggested) your ultra great battle system and spells etc. and do not ever unprotect this map!! Because people will steal it like noobs and make lame maps all over the place and almost no one will know that you are the great guy who created all this nice stuff
Well, fusing those 2 maps would be tremendous amount of work, and they're way different maps. So that's out, for now...
As for more classes thing, I might add some more classes later on, but right now there's not really a big need for a new class since current classes can do everything you need them to do: tank, heal and deal damage. Another class would only bring up to variety of playstyle, and there's already a lot of work to be done besides that.
I will look into that charge spell, even tho I've hoped that the thing you mentioned would not happen again...
Hacking save code is easy, I admit it, but there's not much I can do about it, it's already encrypted and changing of various letters/numbers can lead to unpredictable results (not even I know what can happen).
Yes, level 9 is maximum on this map, next map in series will be for levels 9 - 19.
Speaking of which, I'm currently fixing some minor issues with this map and making new one (but every change on first map has to be done on the second aswell, so the process is really slow), and I will keep you informed about the progress every day.
Oh, and btw Freelancah, tnx for the review and support +rep
My friend said -load FUCK YOU and it gave him a level 60 champion, not a lie either.
Also Desert Scorcher doesn't reset u can't fight him more than once if u fail the first time. [ I only played the map once however so something else might have caused this ]
Yup, what xzero said is approved - same happens to me.
Also a small suggestion once again - a "-roll" command would be very usefull when two holy paladins see a Axe with + int they fight for it like dogs who weren't fed for a week
Besides, I think i didn't manage to find any other bugs - I'd like to add that I really love the stats that items give cos it all really works the spell power etc.! Man, you had to work on that for ages^^
Big bravo once again for creating such a nice map
Don't give up! I'll be testing every version and post my reviews so you won't miss any little bug !
Have a nice day
The boss not resetting seems to happen on the last boss as well as the last boss didn't reset after I fought him once and wiped <.<.
The bosses not resetting doesn't happen all the time but this needs to be fixed.
Also what does ESC do it just makes u enter cinematic mode then zooms out then back in once you turn it off <.<
Speaking of zooming out I would really love different camera options that zoom out farther that really helps a lot in boss fights!
A ranger and rogue type class would be nice if you haven't added any of them yet as well as more mage type classes.
Class trainer should reset your attributes as well as your talents because why would u switch to heal build if you don't have any int and I can't find the class trainer in this version or did you not add him yet?
Edit: You can change spellpacks every like 20 seconds not 60 seconds the ` thingy's mana regen is super fast so you can run around without getting hit and change spellpacks pretty fast.
Very low chance blue drops from trash monsters would be nice too. [Edit]: Wait they do drop, and they are very VERY low.
You say the first map is easy in the questlog and it is pretty easy, except the last and fire lord boss their nukes deal WAY too much damage and spell resist doesn't seem to help that much even though I only have 9 <.<.
Yeah, agreed with xzero, although I think now let's stop posting any comments as Serbianbeast surely has a lot of work on him atm.
I just hope you won't leave the map in the middle of it's work as often people do with good maps(Esepcially such amazing as this one!!)

Both of those nukes can be avoided, flame wreath by not moving and fire explosion (the one he casts when he yells You will BURN!) by moving away from him, so the point is to focus, not gain as much as possible spell resistance.
Esc command is still test command and it's a subject to change in future versions.
As for the rest, I'll start working on it right away, just gotten back from work.
And yes, class trainers will provide you an opportunity to swap stats along with talents.
Repick is meant for "-load" errors, not for choosing another class...
As for boss resets, that's the most touchy thing, it sometimes occur, sometimes not and I have no damn idea why :/ working on it...
Edit: oh and yes, trash mobs do drop blues, just not so often as other items...
Xzero wrote : "Hm you should add a way to repick cause I see people choosing heroes by acident a lot."
My response to that:
Well, I think that this map is actually hard to understand for people who don't know English and usually play games about just running around and killing aimlessly because the system is quite ENORMOUS and it's taken from WoW.If you're so retarted that you pick a class too fast then you surelly won't understand the game , even though, a repick option would be nice although i'd save it DEFINITELY for later.
Wow on the poison troll boss the boss' scorpion add destroys the item most of the time for some reason once he dies his aoe spit hits the item and destroys it.
Make the boss that absorbs the blue orbs faster movement cause its hard to dodge the big blue orb with him walking so slow or at least a bit faster.
Firestorm is broken, the weapon damage bonus accumulates [ My Guess ] and can go up to 1000+ damage you can solo most bosses with just spamming firestorm its damage increases with each use.
Why no armor items not even a helmet, you should change the potion slot with helmet or chest armor and just add a seperate potion backpack that doesn't save.
Also if you use fire earthshakers soulburn on the desert scorcher it causes him to do a huge 6000 damage aoe wiping the entire group for some reason.
My friend suggested you should add talent trees for just the individual classes and not for every class so they'd be more unique. Idk that might take too much work...
Also when the last boss goes poison form he dies super fast cause his own poison hurts him I think.

You don't need to have the armor change how it looks on your hero.... the heroes look cool enough! But seriously how is a tank gonna tank without a chest plate? My friend suggested you could just have a normal wc3 special affect around your chest area like shadows around your chest with some shadow armor but that sounds a little dumb in my opinion.
Champions charge also can teleport you across the barrier so he can get in during the boss fight.
Weird the last boss dies SUPER fast like hes taking 1000+ damage from the poison theres no way it isn't him hurting himself you must have overlooked something.
If you send ghouls without anyone in there to a boss and they die it will lock every boss forever =/.
You can also send ghouls to the boss by summoning it next to the barrier if theres one barrier but when theres two like on the last boss it doesn't work but of course the dreadknight can't get in but the ghouls can teleport through if you're next to the barrier.
Could you give the normal monsters a chance to drop a shield? I mean most of them have shields and theres a big lack of shields in this map.
Also shield hand orbs for casters = GOOD IDEA!
Items really need a higher drop rate off the normal monsters, I rarely see potions drop hell I've only seen 2 potions ever drop and I've played the map over 5 times.
Instead of full armor sets(tho that is possible I will explain how) you can add Shoulders. I'm almost sure you're using WoW models(correct me if you're not) and they have attachment points for shoulders so its doable.
The full armor sets way is actually using DUSC(Dynamic Unit Skin Changer, you can find it at wc3c.net) which allows you to change a units skin ingame(quite awesome yeah). So all you need is a different skin for the different armor sets and you're good to go with that way.
Really good map so far but a bit too small in my point of view. Hope you will enlarge it.
The one things that should be improved i think:
-I had really low item drops, got only like 3-4 items in the whole map.
-Maybe i was just noob, but i died at the second enemy, so it was impossible to do alone (dreadknight, the unholy or what skills)
Havent tried all classes yet, so cant tell balance problems or anything with it.
I am looking forvard the next version, and before i forget: welcome back to map developing!

You're right about that, but yet again... I can't export models myself, and that would require even more space than it does now so you know... I'll think about it.
• Why doesn't the weapon/shield non-epic from the last boss not give any damage I think its suppose to show damage as the epic from him shows damage I think this may be a bug.
I was playing this map yesterday and I found 2 bugs.
1.We attacked boss troll with blink, tornado, poison, 66k hp,etc..First time he killed us, and second time when we came to attack him he was bugged (invulnerable,champion used hamstring-like spell(that buff was on him all the time)).We killed all other bosses, then we returned to him again.We was able to attack him, but he didnt attack us.Later when he used blink in the middle of the arena 2 tornadoes was around him!
2.When I used to load my hero, he came, but with items from Cleric(I was champion tank. he was cleric healer) !
P.S. Champion (tank ofc) PWN !
Edit: I need your help. Every time you finish this map with your friends (3 or more players) i need you to type "-dmg", look at that table and tell me (in a PM here on hive or through email: [email protected]) the stats. It's important to say what class the player is, what level, what build (str/agi/int) and how much percent damage he has done. PM/mail example:
1. DK lvl 10 str 25%
2. ES lvl 9 agi 22%
3. CR lvl 8 int 20%
4. CH lvl 7 str 18%
5. ES lvl 5 str 15%
This will help me balance classes.
Yeap. Lots of PvP only maps... But there's still a lot of work to be done before I can get to developing PvP maps...
Speaking of which, from level 30 and on (so basically end of the 3rd map in series) players will start getting PvP gear with bonus hit points, critical resilience, armor, spell resistance, hit points and damage, and there will be separated maps in which players will be able to fight from 1v1 to 5v5 (AOS, arena, capture the flag and other pvp oriented types of maps).
Serbian - That's fucking ultra - People will stop whining that WoW is payable and will play one for free! Man you've done shit loads of fucking WIN! work
P.S:
Talking bout the PVP stats - Spell Penetration and Armor penetration could be nice, tho not necessary - just saying in case you might be looking for sumthin' like that
Also - Gemming items would be fucking sweet !
Serbian - That's fucking ultra - People will stop whining that WoW is payable and will play one for free! Man you've done shit loads of fucking WIN! work
I wanted to say ( That was a quite easy sentence but I'll simplify it to your low English level?) that his maps and system are ultra, and that his plans are ultra ( Ultra - cool, Plans = Things he will do in the future) And that people will stop whining that WoW is pay 2 play (Yeah payable was a bad adjective INDEED, whining - complaining.. oh that's also a hard word...) Because the map is VERY VERY VERY VERY similar ( similar - almost the same as) WoW and that it's free. ( free = you don't have to pay..)
I understand what you wanted to say first time, just wanted to know why you used word FU so many times
Also about map, it is great but just like Serbianbeast said, it need to be improved even more! I will wait for few new versions and leave review after!
I'm sorry, but as you just said that you don't understand what I wanted to say. I didn't know you meant all that "fu...'s" that I used as an adjective of greatness .
By the way - If any of you is playing on Europe, and wants to test Desert Winds ( You need to have a host :/ ) Then tell me and I shall contact you ASAP in game.
{EDIT}
I was fighting the fire boss with my mate and while we were "climbing" up destroying the coming trolls, the boss went down and we killed him on the road. Because of that, it didn't actually count as we killed him and there are those force barriers to every boss etc.
Also - I just noticed that every class has the same tree - Will that stay forever? A frost DK has just 1 talent from the tank tree that is usefull for his DPS and all the other ones are for tanking - a FROST DK doesn't have a taunt spell so this has kinda no point unless you'll give a taunt ability to every meele class like in WoW (Warrior,Pala,DK no matter if healer or stuff they have taunt) So it will have some sense.Otherwise, I'd suggest the STR tree change maybe? The agility one is quite nice for Frost DK dps but not the greatest possible.
Besides, I'll repeat myself again - everything is amazing
Thanks for creating the map, I can't wait for the new parts!
P.S:
One handers, shields and especially my favourite weapon type - dual wield, would be veeeeeryyyy welcoooomeeee
Frost DK and Earth ES are strength based DPS classes, they require no taunt or anything similar, they're made to make the life easier for group. Frost DK can increase armor of tank (thus dealing more damage) and can slow and stun enemies, reducing their damage output by great amount. Earth ES is the best AOE damage dealer and he's vital for some situations to come in further maps. They're not tanks, and that's why they wouldn't be getting any taunts or similar spells.
As for the rest, it will be taken in consideration.
Yeah, but the STR talent tree grants them - Bonus spell resistance, bonus armor, bonus HP - Is that a DPS stat? Frost DK and Earth ES are way better in the AGI tree(Bonus att speed ,crit multiplier etc.) which actually makes a bit not much sense as the STR tree is really good only for Tanking as a champion or for some PVP build with HP and armor increase - Making it like in Growling Winds - every class different 3 talent trees ( or like in WoW tbh.) Would be nice, unless the str tree is supposed to be made bad for DPS.
Have you tried to take int talents for them? Remember that changenote: -Swapped Arcane Intellect and Arcane Power talent positions so that players could make more efficient hybrid builds.
and -Swapped Evocation and Empowered Weapons in caster talent tree so non-intelligence casters could make more appropriate talent builds.?
Well they make ES and DK way better DPS classes than any of those agi ones.
Yeah, indeed was just wondering
Also, I still think that the talents are nice although they are general upgrades - not spell improvements like in Growling Winds - I think that making different talent trees for every class would actually give more PVP and Balance possibilites.
Why? PVP would be pointless when 2 guys fight because they have the same talent possibilities that are good for pvp whileas when you'd have each class a different group of talent trees it'd make every class good in pvp as something else, Not like PVP will be just about adding those talents that give shit loads of HP and Resistances and HP
It's definitely your choice, although I think that it'd be a nice idea to ask the general public what they think about making a different tree for every class
Besides - I think there are no more bugs so I think that after 0.09 you can go for the next part of the map with a "clear thought"
