Even on a small map, just 2-3 Chaos Devils will be instantly killed. I killed significantly more with a single shot from skeletons. And what about Phantom Forces, other units, and the ability to block spells, especially frequently used ones?

Well done... your skeletons go first, don't they? They move before everyone else?...:D:D:D

in a battle against a Warlock, your skeletons won't move at all :)
Storm Master + any other creature (as a last resort) will do the job.

Well done... I see your skeletons go first, huh? They move before everyone else.

Sometimes they do. The Necropolis doesn't have very high initiative, and the Banshee's Cry and amulets that lower morale still exist. And how many skeletons can you kill with the first Armageddon if they have at least 7 hit points instead of 5? What about Raise Dead? I raised 200 skeletons, and did you often deal more than 1500 damage? And by that time, there will be a lot of skeletons.

in a battle with a warlock, your skeletons won't move at all. Storm Master + Enchanter (in the worst case) know their job.

I agree, the chance of resisting a warlock is small, and there might not be a dispel, so the skeletons will be stunned. But their phantoms will attack for them; you just need to cast them at the right time (after the warlock's turn), otherwise, there wouldn't be any balance, and all 6 castles would be equally strong. In general, in Heroes 5, the highest-level monsters don't decide the outcome very much. They are just a strong unit, nothing more

well, assassins are effective against phantoms. by the way, Dungeon can also have a phantom... a phantom fury :)

Phantoms often move right after the hero, and you also need to hit them. There are also Liches. In short, everyone always has something to counter everything. I wonder, if a Phantom (let's say a Fury, I love these beauties) runs through a wall of fire, will it be destroyed or not?

Education – Unraveling the Secret – is a reincarnation of Eagle Eye from previous installments – it is useful, for example, in fighting against Hell Lords; if a hero doesn't have the Meteor Shower spell, they can learn it when the Lords cast it.

I have a question: will this ability trigger when Djinns cast spells?

It should... at least, there shouldn't be any contradictions...

by the way, I haven't tried it... the logs say that a random spell was cast
so it's not a given that it will be learned :confused:

And when will you publish such guides for the other factions?

I honestly can't say...
I don't play anymore, but I could write an essay if I did!

By the way, I had a good laugh yesterday: So, I was playing with a friend in local multiplayer (laptops). I was playing as Dungeon against his Haven. After we both sent our main heroes to attack each other, I had 5 upgraded Hydras left on the battlefield. And he had 89 archers, but without arrows. There was no point in fighting them in melee, so I kept casting Haste (thankfully, I had enough mana, ironically, he didn't), ran away from them, and eventually managed to regenerate my Hydras and kill him!

That’s a really strange tactic. If you had mana, wouldn’t it be easier to just cast a spell on the Arabs once?

Of course, I could. But you misunderstood. The point wasn't just to kill them! It was for fun, to see if I could use Hydras to chase archers around the battlefield...
