Posts from Orcs have no magic. Warcries.

Does anyone know how an Orc's stats are increased? Attack is clear, it seems to have a 50% chance of increasing. Magic is the worst. But what about Knowledge and Defense? I couldn't figure out the order.

And one more thing. The skill tree says that a hero's skill reduces the enemy hero's magic by 1/2 of their own magic. Has anyone checked if this is really true? Because with the Orc's meager magic, the skill becomes practically useless.

No, Orcs are definitely very strong even without magic. Just look at the "Rage of the Horde" ability! Especially considering there are a decent number of Goblins in the army. For my Barbarian hero, "Rage of the Horde" dealt 1500 damage and cost 10 mana, even though he only had 120 mana total. It's almost cheating, "Earth Shock" is nothing compared to it.

But it also deflects like a simple spell. I personally don't use it because deflecting it means losing a turn; it's better to cast a battle cry on your own warriors.
