I'll take ANYTHING else...:smile04: If I'm already playing on Expert, I probably know all the spells anyway.

But what if everyone else is an expert except for one person, and they give you this..., well, this..., what is it called, damn it...:), ah, literacy, what will you do? Will you start over? :D :D :D

That's why they always offer two skills to choose from:smile26:

Dude, what are you talking about...? I'm telling you, you're level 19 and all your skills are already at expert level, you have one slot left, and they give you, say, navigation and literacy. But there's no water on the map, so what then?

...I'll smash my monitor with a bat...:D
But seriously, you see, you're specifically making Navigation + no water a condition. That's an artificial condition, you have to agree. They could give you something better... In principle, both skills are useless. Navigation without water, and Literacy at level 19 (you should already have a lot of spells in your spellbook, in theory). Okay, I'll take Literacy - maybe I still haven't learned some Dispell spell by chance...:smile04:

In this case, Literacy is definitely more useful - you can train your secondary heroes... And if they don't give Navigation, but Eagle Eye (my favorite, by the way :D), then I think it's still more logical to take Literacy, because at level 19, you won't learn many spells from the mage.

Tan, Nella, in some cases Fafnir, Iona, Septienna, and definitely Alamar.
Justification:
1. Tan, Iona - can give another hero a starting spell for ranged attacks. + troops!
2. Fafnir. In some cases, the Haste spell is VERY useful.
3. Septienna. Give another hero the Death Wave spell and troops.
4. Alamar. Increase his Logistics skill to level 1 - and all heroes will have Resurrection!
5. Nella. She's good on her own. And Logistics suits her well!

4. Alamar. Increase literacy by 1 level, and all heroes will have resurrection!
Not by 1 level, but by 2 levels to reach expert literacy. However, at level 5 literacy does not allow you to transfer skills.

Not to level 1, but to level 2, up to expert literacy. But spells of level 5 do not grant the ability to transfer literacy.

Here is perhaps one drawback of literacy :(

5. Nella. She is good in herself. And literacy suits her!

All wizards can be included here. In my opinion, Nella only spoils this skill. It would be difficult to fight with this hero...:)

Skills that are practically equally useless at level 19...
By the way, I've had this happen – I would abandon a scenario and start over because of some awful thing that dropped at the end, like Literacy, Eagle Eye, or Navigation...

Come on... where does this negativity towards literacy come from?

If I did that every time, I probably wouldn't have finished many scenarios... :)

I already explained where it comes from. Well, it just never came in handy for the main hero.
In Heroes of Might and Magic V - sorry for the off-topic - the ability to transfer ALL spells was very, very helpful several times. In the Necropolis campaign, Marcel is not allowed to learn Astral Gate, but Isabella, who knew it, quietly and peacefully transferred the spell to Marcel.:p Voila!

I haven't had such bad luck that often.:smile38: And you have to play for fun, so if I get annoyed by a hero's incorrect build, I'll replay it.

I also strongly agree that it shouldn't be a skill... they did the right thing by making it an ability instead of a skill.

Why give literacy to the main hero if he is already the strongest, and there isn't even another hero in the army who could learn those spells? In my opinion, it's a waste of free skill points. In the fifth game, they did a good job rebalancing many skills from the third game, and the separation of skills and abilities is a great idea.
Step aside from the way of a better man than you
So you fall at his feet hes the one who betrays you
Its the servants devotion for the decay

There are no chains

Why give literacy to the main hero if he is stronger than everyone else, and there isn't even a hero in the army who could learn these spells? In my opinion, it's a waste of free skill slots.
In the fifth game, they did a good job re-editing many skills from the third part, and the separation into skills and abilities is a great idea.

Of course, giving literacy to the main hero doesn't make much sense, but using this skill with other heroes in a scenario or campaign still provides some benefits. Examples of using this secondary skill were discussed above...

And also: can we please stop talking about the 5th game for a while?

I've kind of forgotten.
Do both heroes need this skill to learn the spell?
Or is it the teacher who needs the skill, or vice versa? =)

Be strong. Believe
