I wonder if it's possible to change the Coven Mistress specialization to be as it was originally intended?

Witches "support" only spells that deal damage – all from Destructive Magic; "strike" spells from Summoning Magic; Decay and Mass Decay from Dark Magic.

"Direct" hero attacks are NOT supported.

Currently, they fire whenever any spell is used on an opponent, including those that do not deal damage (blindness, berserk).
Coven Mistress specialization as it is in ToE is very underpowered so we had to buff it by adding more spells and increasing the chance of happening. At the time there was no way to exclude blindness but now may be we can. Thank you for the feedback we will check what we can do.

And one more thing. If Coven Mistress triggers, the shot occurs even if there are no shots remaining.
This probably a ToE bug. Shot count was never changed by the mod. You can see the patch here.

I noticed another phenomenon.
Barbarian heroes (witches and shamans) spontaneously learn adventure spells; the problem is that they also learn those that are forbidden on the map (for example, Astral Gates).
That is a nice catch. We will check it.
  • Vingly indeed MMH55 does not bring new missions or campaigns. However Vanilla, HoF and ToE cammpaigns are made compatible and even some existing bugs that come fromToE are fixed.
