·Multi-source verified (54/54)

Arkantos finds himself in a labyrinthine maze, home to the fearsome Minotaur. This mission often focuses on exploration, puzzle-solving, and hero management. You'll likely start with a small group of heroes and a few military units, with limited base-building capabilities. Your primary goal is to navigate the maze, defeat the Minotaur, and find a way out. The maze will be filled with traps, enemy patrols, and possibly other Myth Units. Use your Oracle Scout (if available) or Arkantos's line of sight to carefully explore each path.

Mission 4: The Minotaur's Maze

The Minotaur is a powerful Myth Unit, so you'll need to prepare for a tough fight. Look for any temporary power-ups or allied units within the maze that can assist you. Some mazes might require you to activate switches or destroy specific structures to open new paths. Keep your heroes together and use their special abilities effectively. Arkantos's hero bonus against Myth Units will be invaluable here. Conserve your units' health and retreat if necessary. The Minotaur often has a specific weakness or can be kited, so observe its attack patterns. Victory in the maze often unlocks a new ally or reveals a critical piece of information for the campaign.
