Posts from Secondary skills in Heroes 3.
Hmm... a second hero?! Level up a second hero?!?!? Not level up Wisdom?!?!? The only thing additional heroes need is +resources and Economy. Maybe also Navigation + Scouting + Logistics, but that would only result in a scout who can transport an army from the castle. Making two combat (meaning attacking) heroes is, in my opinion, stupid. Unless that's what was meant...
Stupid? Really? And what will you do with your one hero on a large map when weak enemy heroes attack you from all sides, and you have several cities that need to be defended? And what will you do with your weak secondary hero? My father, for example, plays Heroes very well and has often scolded me when he saw that I was doing everything with one hero. Of course, it also depends on the play style, but don't jump to conclusions.

Wisdom is only not worth leveling up in cases where there is literally "no" magic, which mainly applies to offline modes, but even in a normal scenario, there can be something like a Sphere of Inhibition, i.e., all magical skills are useless.
Additional heroes need more than just "+resources and Economy."
Logistics has always been related to the main hero; even if it doesn't matter in battle, the speed of catching up to the enemy means a lot ;), and scouting is the job of a secondary hero, usually an accompanying one; navigation is naturally not for the main hero – go ahead, explore, and have a secondary hero do it; no one is stopping you.
No one is suggesting you make two combat heroes; play as you see fit, and there's no need for two main heroes, except in cases where there are 2 opponents, for example, and to save time, you take 2 heroes and send them in different directions to defeat the opponent :) -
that's what was meant ;)
I personally don't understand how you can divide hero skills... one will have wisdom and intellect, earth, water, air, or good warrior skills, and another will run behind with scouting, erudition, artillery, first aid, etc. It's a pity to even give such an army away... he won't influence it and won't even enhance it with magic... IMHO.
Here, look at one of the standard schemes for working with secondary heroes: there are eight heroes on the map - all are busy, and you can't fire anyone. Let's say it's the third week of the game. You urgently need to give one of the main heroes the "Forgetfulness" spell (for example), which is simply necessary for the planned battle...
To do this, we drive any of the active heroes into the "pocket" of the city (otherwise, we won't be able to hire anyone), hire a hero with erudition, level up his advanced erudition, send him to the city where this skill is available, run away from the nearest obstacle, hire in the city that is close to our target hero, catch up with him, and teach him... And all this, if possible, in one day without losing movement points for the main hero.
We fire the erudition hero (if there is no opportunity to put him in the "pocket" on the same turn). We can move on...
This is what we are talking about when we talk about secondary heroes. The main hero doesn't need erudition, but a hero with erudition can be very helpful and, having done a good deed, he is free. A one-time use of a secondary hero, which can determine the outcome of the game. You probably send the main hero to the Castle to learn magic? :) That means you just have too much time... :)

but the Conqueror really needs essential skills - earth, wisdom, attack, etc., and I don't even level up the others much... they just run around, carry the army, and collect resources, conquer mines, and most of the battles often take place with one hero... so why should they know other skills, as it used to be said, "so that all skills are used"? I don't quite understand this... maybe it's because I'm not such a pro in the game?

It is wiser to choose Attack, Defense, or Archery (depending on the situation).
If the focus is on brute force, it is more reasonable to add Attack – it is still more important for the main hero to be able to defeat neutral creatures than to recruit troops (a secondary hero can handle the latter, and it is not necessary to level him up beyond the fifth or sixth level for effective operation)... Also, for a "brute force" hero, Pathfinding will be more preferable than Intelligence: speed, and again speed, is the best tactic for him...
If the focus is more on magic, Defense will be more effective. It is generally more effective than Attack and can only be inferior to it if you have the first turn. Defense also has an advantage over Attack if you have archers as the main core of your army. Attack does not help archers – the Archery skill is more important for them...
Special case: Air + Intelligence (if you have Fly or Dimension Door) will more than compensate for Logistics + Pathfinding. Here, everything depends on the terrain of the map and the ability to obtain the necessary spells. And all this is already visible at the start of the map, which allows you to make the right choice when upgrading the skill tree from the very beginning...
Yes, but it doesn't appear too often. Would you really give up on searching for a path on a completely snowy and marshy map just because Angel Wings exist?
