Hero/Lord recourse intensiveness

[Artfactial]

Hey all,

for the Tamriel Project I am re-adding heroes and lord at the moment. But stopped short wondering: is it better to have the hero/lord resources in the mod's .RPK file per race (making them, incidentally, usable over multiple maps) or is it best to create them in the Map Editor (which I would like to avoid).
Are there limitations to adding lords and heroes via the mod compared to adding them in the map?

I don't think adding hero to a mod is going to impact much its performance as it doesn't add any .clb or anything heavy on memory. So I think it's the way to go instead of adding them to a map.

Yeah, I thought so, anything that lightens the load on the map is of priority. Thanks!

Edit: Also, when creating heroes/leaders in the ModEd you are able to search your strings; something which is finicky at best in the LevelEditor Hero creator.

Creating them in a mod package is best if you intend to use them over several different maps.

If you intend to save them inside a map and still not displaying them among the game leaders inside menu of the game. Then create them in mod content only as heroes and then add them as leaders inside the map.
