NEUTRAL CREATURES

Balance Discussion

This page will only detail neutral creatures that have not been moved to a faction's main roster of units (e.g. Halflings and Boars).

Mummies can now cast Wasp Swarm at 50% Power, mirroring their appearance in Heroes V and allowing them to have a little more flavour than their standard cursing attack.

Sharpshooters have received a solid Health boost to prolong their time spent on the battlefield. They have a new Undead counterpart that suffers from reduced Defense, Health, and Speed, but compensates with a higher Attack and superior Damage range.

Faerie Dragons have been buffed to have more appropriate stats for their Level and Cost, the latter of which has been slightly increased. They will now be able to brawl more effectively instead of solely relying on their spellcasting in combat.

The Dracolich returns! It is another In the Wake of Gods unit that has been redesigned to fit between the Crystal Dragon and Azure Dragon in terms of power and fills the same niche that the other neutral Dragons do, except it is aligned with the Necropolis.
