In my opinion, artwork doesn't have an impact, but Sir Mullich definitely does.

Actually, it's one of the most significant advantages in terms of skills, as it doubles the skill; this bonus is least important for the "Marksman" skill.

In total, it doubles: 15% is the maximum level of enhancement due to the skill, and the same amount is given by the enhancement due to the hero's ability.
And, of course, not 5% per hero level! Otherwise, at level 20, the spells would deal 115% damage!! (+15 - skill, which will be maxed out by level 20)
But this is not observed; the skill increases by 5% per skill level, and therefore, in the end, it turns out to be doubled.

If we are talking about Sandro's specialization, I think you are confusing the secondary skill "Magic" and the specialization "Magic." These are two different things. The secondary skill provides a +5/10/15% bonus, depending on its development level (basic/advanced/expert), to the base skill. The "Magic" specialization modifies the secondary skill, increasing it by +5% per level. That is, it adds +0.25% (5.0% - 5.25 - 5.5 - 5.75, etc.) to the base skill...

For example, Sandro has a basic level of the secondary skill, which gives +5% to the power of his offensive spells. For each level gained, Sandro receives +5% to the skill value,
i.e., 5% (basic) + 5%*1 (Level 1) = 5.25% (and not 10%, as you calculate)... At level 20, we have 5% + (5%*20) = 5% + 100% = 10%. (The increase is highlighted in red, i.e., +100% is a doubling of the value).

So, the general formula looks like this:

Damage bonus = (5/10/15%) * (1 + 0.05 * L), where L is the hero's level.
The maximum level is 108, so Sandro's maximum bonus is 15% * (1 + 0.05 * 108) = 96% to the power of offensive spells...

There are no bad skills in the game! Everyone just has different preferences! For example, I don't understand people who choose Diplomacy... I personally don't take it...

That's right. Taking Diplomacy as a skill is very unwise! You should take heroes who already have it... :D

It’s even better to take already leveled-up heroes. Wait a bit until the computer-controlled hero levels up and gets defeated, and then buy him! :)
