Heavy Torches (previously called Dragon Fire) is a unique technology in Age of Empires IV: The Sultans Ascend, available to the Order of the Dragon, that can be researched at the Barracks starting in the Feudal Age. It grants Area of Effect damage to the Gilded Spearman's torch attack. Because the torch attack can only be used against buildings, which typically have large footprints, the primary benefit of this technology is against closely packed 2 x 2 tile buildings such as Houses or Farms around a Mill.
It can also be researched at the Burgrave Palace landmark.
Changelog[]
- Upon release, the technology was called "Dragon Fire". In an unknown patch[When?], it was stealthily changed to the current name.
