This is, you guessed it, a FAQ for the WarChasers Scenario. You see, it was
kinda cool that Blizzard decided to cross WC3 with the Gauntlet games, and the
map is a good example for all those mapmakers out there.

WarChasers is what you see it: a lite Diablo II experience where there are
no PKers (well, sort of), hackers, or hacked items. So if you are getting
whacked by losers in D2, then play WarChasers! It's very nice, and shows
Blizzard's great sense of humor.

Enough talk! On with the FAQ!

9oooooo6/---------------/9oooooo6
Here is a explanation of the different WarChasers heroes:

Optimus Primo
A first-class heavy melee unit, closely modeled to the Mountain King. He
has excellent ground base skills and is an excellent melee fighter. He is the
first pick of beginners because of his area-of-effect-spells Thunder Clap and
Shockwave. His Aura is crappy, but the Ultimate, Avatar, is the best. He is
also Mechanical, so he will explode upon dying. (my brother self-destructed to
clear the Murloc infestation. . . how kind!)
Primary attribute: Strength

Skeletorius
The offensive mage hero. He 0wns enemies by Chain Lightning and Mana Burn.
Brilliance aura is a great aura, it makes the waits for mana to fully
regenerate infinitely faster. Death and Decay should be used on bosses while
your allies keep him in the radius.
Primary attribute: Intellegence

BladeBerserker
A favorite, BladeBerserker has amazing skills. The Endurance Aura is a very
good one, making you move and attack faster. Immolate tears enemies apart, and
is powerful at Lvl 3. Death Coil can deal up to 300 damage to non-undead
enemies. Bladestorm 0wns when caught in the middle of jampacked enemies. . .
His Primary attribute is Agility so you can have more armor and faster
attacks.
Primary attribute: Agility

MegaTron X
An underused hero. I'm not surprised, because his skills are mainly
defensive. Divine Shield is very good, you can kill a big enemy without
getting damaged yourself. Thorns is decent, but it doesn't deal much damage.
Better watch your health instead. Wind Walk is of little offensive value
(outside of scouting), but is great when you are dying, for it makes you
invisible and ups your moving speed. Tranquility is very nice in team games,
because you are virtually invincible when affected by it.
Primary attribute: Strength

Snake Aes
Another underused hero. She has long range attacks and works like a PoM
clone. Cold Arrows is a plus, it slows down enemies. Searing Arrows add some
nice damage. She also has Holy Light to heal her allies and damage undead. Her
final ability, Rain of Fire, is damaging, but not very good for an Ultimate.
If you can, have alternating volleys of Cold Arrows and Searing Arrows against
the Soulless!!!
Primary attribute: Agility

Assassin
A very cool hero. His attack looks cool (a cut-and-paste version of the
Gargoyle's ground attack) Storm Bolt is powerful in the early levels and
against strong enemies. Entangling Roots is best used on powerful melee units
and bosses. Bash is really good, since it's passive and stuns the opponent.
Starfall is, arguably the best Ultimate aside from Avatar. Yeah!!!
Primary attribute: Agility

BeastKnight
The summoning melee unit. A favorite when going solo because of cool
summons. Very helpful when going against swarms. Holy Light is THE healing
spell, it heals a lot of life. Water Elemental and Feral Spirit are both cool
spells, 'nuff said. Inferno gives you the most powerful ground-based unit, the
Infernal, while stunning enemies in its radius.
Primary attribute: Strength

Mumm-Rah
A decent ranged hero. Has cool spells like Frost Nova which is devastating
against swarms. Sleep is for powerful enemies and bosses so that you can heal
while the idiot is sleeping. Also, attacks to them deal more damage because
sleeping units lose their armor!!! Vampiric Aura is a good addition, but it
doesn't do him much good because he isn't a melee unit. Whenever you feel
outnumbered, Animate Dead will help you even out the odds and has good mana
cost (v1.04) too!!!
Primary attribute: Intelligence

How to use each hero's skill effectively, skill builds and other riffraf
are listed here. The fun titles are mostly for fun only. I made them up! The
skill builds are just my preference. You are free to make up your own!

+-----------------------------------------------+
|Skeletorius, powerful wizard who refused to die|
+-----------------------------------------------+
It is always good to have Skeletorius around. His Brilliance Aura is
fantastic! Chain Lightning will rip low-level enemies apart, and is a great
help for unruly swarms!!! Mana Burn is extremely useful against bosses, and so
is Death and Decay. He is quite frail, so have a good melee unit to back him
up. A fan favorite!

What to do with his skills:
Chain Lightning - Use whenever you are fighting 4 or more enemies. Very
useful. Max at once.
Mana Burn - Good at spellcasting enemies, like Dark Wizards. Decent damage.
Brilliance Aura - Passive, and your allies also get this when near you.
Mana regeneration rate is increased incredibly so you can wait shorter for
your mana pool to be at full. (what a sentence!)

Skill order:
Chain Lightning, Brilliance Aura, Chain Lightning, Mana Burn, Brilliance Aura,
Chain Lightning, Mana Burn, Brilliance Aura, Mana Burn, Death and Decay

|Optimus Primo, king of fighting clad in violent machinery|

The powerhouse himself, Optimus Primo, is out for a little fun. He is very
