The same can't be said about the translation.

Was the manual for 3.1 translated?

Was the manual for 3.1 translated?

No. But there were translation errors, at least in the Russian version, for example, regarding the
skill "Protection from Undead Magic" (it's unlikely that the mechanics changed from 3.0 to 3.1 in this specific instance).
Although, maybe I'm wrongly blaming the translators, and the error crept in even earlier, at the stage of the English version?...
I haven't studied the Russian version of the manual for 3.0 in detail; it's still not as comprehensive as the 3.1 version, even without considering the changes.

I watched some videos, and I liked them. It brings back memories...
I even have some thoughts on a few of them.
1. I never really tried to check how the race-specific abilities work with other factions' troops. Surprisingly, everything turned out to be exactly as I thought. But there's an explanation for this – I always preferred the English manual 3.1, and the guys there were careful with their words. Which can't be said about the translation.
2. In the video about fighting the Darkness, the unfortunate fact that Berserk cannot be dispelled with Remove Curse (or did I miss something?) is not mentioned, which is why the Shield of the Dwarf is one of the most valuable artifacts in the game.
3. The video about sets is excellent; I even noted a bug in the Lion Set that I had somehow missed before. But in the part about Death Embrace, it should be mentioned that there's a bug with a 0.5 second cooldown after the Shout. In general, this Shout is a complete disappointment – it doesn't scale with level for Daedra, and the set doesn't work correctly with it.
Also, IMHO, it would be useful to consider the burning question of whether it's possible to raise a skeleton for 1 action point.

Unfortunately, no. I'll have to watch the Heroes for fan videos.

My videos contain a lot of information that isn't in the manual.

Remix, please provide examples that are not in the manual. I'm used to watching videos without sound, and Google subtitles don't always reveal the correct text.

However, in the section about Embrace of Death, it's necessary to add a note about the cooldown reset to 0.5 after the Shout. In general, this Shout is a source of constant disappointment – it doesn't scale with level for Daedra, and the set doesn't work correctly with it.
Also, in my opinion, it wouldn't hurt to consider the pressing question of whether it's possible to upgrade a skeleton's tier for 1 Expertise Point.

Could you provide more details about the issues with this set for a regular hero, a Necromancer, and specifically for Daedra? Changing the description is not a problem, but if there's a bug in the mechanics, perhaps it can be fixed with mods (as long as it's not hidden deep within the executable file).

A lot of information not mentioned in the manual is included in my videos (about 2/3 of them).
