Hero Class

English • Polski • Русский • Français • 日本語 • 中文（简体）

Every hero has a set Hero Class, which determines the odds for the growth of the hero's Attributes and the Skills they're likely to learn, broadly dictating what battle style the hero is well-suited for. Classes are divided by faction and by whether they focus on Might or Magic.

Every faction has 2 classes of heroes:

• A Might class, which focuses on the Attack and Defense attributes that directly empower the hero's army's stats and is more likely to learn Might-related skills that strengthen the hero's army, including the Might-exclusive skill Combat that powers up Heroic Strike.
• A Magic class, which focuses on the Spell Power and Knowledge attributes which deal with casting spells, and is more likely to learn Magic-related skills that make the hero better at Spellcasting, including the Magic-exclusive skill Thaumaturgy that lets them cast spells twice per round.

Classes belonging to a faction get exclusive access to that faction's faction skill, and receive no penalties when moving on that faction's native terrain, regardless of what factions their army's units belong to.
