![]() This isn't a problem against neutral stacks, though. If there are only a few of these dragons, you might want to concentrate on the rest of the enemies then. However, beware that the enemy might have a strong army besides the dragons at that point, so you will want to plan your strategy well. Spells can be reflected by Magic Mirror, and they won't be that effective in front of the dragons' health pool. They can also be used for the first cast in the battle, due to their high speed, and are far more effective in greater numbers.Īgainst Faerie Dragons, you should try to overwhelm them with attacks, and don't worry because of the retaliation, since they will use a weak melee attack. They can endure some damage, but don't let them be overwhelmed by strong attacks since they will easily perish then. The strategy of a Faerie Dragon is very simple: strike where it hurts the most from afar, dealing full damage with spells. Unlike the other neutral dragons, the 3 Faerie Dragons guarding the dwelling are easier to get rid of if you hit them hard in the beginning, but shouldn't be confronted if losses are high. Even then, you might want to buy a few, since they are a solid addition to an army, and are almost surely going to annoy the enemy by destroying their ranged troops. This is handy for having a chance of getting rid of weak spells like Magic Arrow, but it does have a cost of opportunity (it's best to cast before the enemy creature can act).įor their relatively low cost for a neutral dragon, Faerie Dragons are worth the money and gems, unless playing with Titans and/or Archangels. Take into account that if you use the "wait" command with a Faerie Dragon, their spell will change (be rerolled) when their turn comes again. In early and mid-game, they are very good as tanks. Against lower level units their defense will still be good, backed by the hero's defense and a large health pool. While boasting lower defense than most living dragons, they totally excel in health, which is a value of 500. As such, even now their levels are still being debated. This is either due to code limitations and impossibility of creating a unit with tier higher than 7, either because the developers didn't have time, motivation or reason to add a new creature level in the game code and invest time in that, just telling us they are level 8, respectively 10. Some may find the information in this section subjective or irrelevant.Įven though in the game files themselves the Faerie Dragon and other neutral dragons are considered to be level 7, the official editor shows they are level 8 (10 for the other neutral dragons). Faerie Dragon's big portrait was fixed. ![]() Faerie Dragon's AI Value was increased to 30501.Placing Faerie Dragons (as well as any living Dragons) in the Skeleton Transformer will give you Bone Dragons instead of regular Skeletons. They also prominently appear in the Faerie Dragons scenario from the Dragon Slayer campaign in Armageddon's Blade. they cast offensive spells despite the presence of the orb.įaerie Dragons were added in Armageddon's Blade so there are no Faerie Dragons or Magic Forests in Restoration of Erathia. Faerie Dragons ignore the Orb of Inhibition in some stances of combat i.e. ![]() The only effective spell is Magic Arrow.įaerie Dragons have a 20% chance to reflect targeted spells with Magic Mirror. While fighting on Cursed ground, Faerie Dragons can cast all the spells, but they cause no damage. Magic Arrow, Ice Bolt and Lightning Bolt are not affected by damage bonuses from the hero's Sorcery secondary skill or elemental orbs equipped. However, the melee damage of this dragon is comparable to that of a level 6 creature, so don't expect them to do much damage. If commanded to attack an enemy that is immune to the spell they are currently preparing, they will use a melee attack instead. The spells are cast with advanced expertise, and with spell power equal to five times the number of faerie dragons in the stack (N). ![]() The spells are randomly chosen for the stack, and the occurrence probabilities can be seen from the table on the left. A stack of faerie dragons can cast up to five spells per combat. Faerie Dragons' main attack method is to cast offensive spells. ![]()
