Haven't you ever wanted to burn away all of an enemy hero's action points?

Well, that would be cheating...
There was no such magic in the game – and there shouldn't be... because such changes affect the very principle of the game...

Why aren't Haven and Dungeon included?

In my opinion, there are very few useful spells, even against the AI, and probably only about ten that are useful against another player.

Considering that there are only about 35 spells in total... if at least 1/3 of them are effective, that's already a plus! But if it's not a secret, which spells do you consider useful?

Actually, there was a "Quagmire" spell in HoMM4.
It reduced the movement range of both ordinary creatures (the attack zone became smaller) and enemy heroes!

You need to take the "Enchanted Arrow" skill. During the hero's turn, open the spellbook, select "Enchanted Arrow" - a new page will open, where you choose the spell you want to enchant with - in the next turn, you attack with a normal attack, and in addition to the arrow, the magic will also strike.
I hope I explained it clearly.

The Enchanted Arrow is a great item... especially when combined with Meteor Shower!

I wanted to ask if anyone uses the “Fire Trap” spell? In my opinion, it’s a completely useless thing.

Have you tried it? I tried to enchant an arrow following all the instructions, but nothing happens! It just results in a wasted turn! I select the Enchanted Arrow, then click on the desired attack spell - the turn passes to the next in the initiative order! I thought it would take effect on the next turn during a normal hero attack, but nothing like that happened! Just a normal hero shot! This Enchanted Arrow doesn't show any effect at all during the entire battle!:confused:

I don't know, it works for me:confused:

I'm not sure, it seems to be working for me:confused:
Tell me more details about what you're applying, and on which turn it starts to take effect?

First, in the spellbook, click on the enchanted arrow, then select the spell. On the next turn, shoot the unit with the arrow, and the spell will fly along with the arrow.
