heroes of might and magic 5 special skills

Ideally, you would want to make use of an ultimate skill for at least part of the exploration phase, so you can reap its rewards during the concluding phase, you probably either carry enough momentum already that the relevancy of the ultimate skill doesn't matter, or you are weakened so far that it doesn't matter anymore whether you have it or not. Initially you have the build-up during the starting phase, then the exploration phase and finally the concluding phase. Especially on single maps, either I cannot achieve it (not enough experience before the map ends) or only at the very end.

Of the four heroes that you finally end the campaigns with (Godric, Finlan, Raelag and Zehir), Finlan is unable to get it (see above) and to get it with Godric it is far from easy either.Įven so, you are only able to briefly enjoy the fruits of the ultimate skills. You can achieve the ultimate skill with Agrael relatively easy (I used it a lot during the campaign's last two missions), but he doesn't carry over through the campaigns anymore. During the campaigns, your heroes are level-restricted. I never achieved it with the other maps - and yes, I aimed at doing pretty much all battles with my main hero. I've played the really big single maps and was only able to achieve the ultimate skill with Raven in An Island Of One's Own. However, to get those skills requires the hero to be around level 30 (if not higher), provided all the offered skillups gave a relevant skill or ability in the first place.īesides that, not every hero is even capable of attaining the ultimate skill, due to having a starting skill that makes it impossible (like Finlan, the Sylvan Campaign Hero, who starts with Tactics, making it impossible to get Battle Frenzy, Nature's Wrath and Flaming Arrows - which are all three prerequisite skills and all three fall under Attack, like Tactics). Heroes can attain ultimate skills, provided the player carefully chooses a selected skillpath to get there.
