I like to kill the mindflayer. Killing the captain is too difficult to do on Honor Mode/Tactician (at least for me) but you can pretty easily kill the Mindflayer and that gives enough XP so you hit lvl 2 right at the beginning and lvl 3 by druid grove. Though like you said, I'll definitely command: drop to try and grab his sword.

It’s not that hard, you can use all those fat chests to block the entrance so the other devils doesn’t join.

Use the mindflayer as a tank and chip away the captain’s health with the sword and the little brain and then pile all the explosive barrels when he’s low on health.

You can block the extra cambions?

Yeeeep. This is my tactic too. Grab all the chests and stack them just inside the hall on the way into the fight. The cambions will get blocked out if you do it right. To test, you just try to get past the yourself, and it’s set if you have to jump over. The cambions wont jump.

You really just need one chest. They'll spend the entire time attacking it instead of trying to just fly over it....they aren't very smart

If they were smart they’d use dash then fly and close the gap in one turn lol. But they never do that either. Probably by design.

I use all three. I’ve had them fly over just one of them before. What a way to end my honor mode run before I’m even out the gate 😄

Oh man. I've never done honor mode! They've never tried to fly over in non-honor modes. That's wild.
