- This article is about the creature from Heroes of Might and Magic III. For other uses, see mage.
The mage is the fourth-tier creature of the Tower faction in Heroes of Might and Magic III. It can be recruited from the mage tower. The mage can be upgraded to the arch mage. In Heroes of Might and Magic III: Armageddon's Blade, Dracon can upgrade mages into enchanters.
Apprentice magi, under the mentorship of Wizards, serve as Tower troops before they become full masters of their craft. Both mage and arch mage units suffer no damage penalty for attacking adjacent enemies and reduce the casting cost of allied hero spells by two.OffBck
The mage is a very useful damage dealer, with decent damage and 24 shots to fire, with no damage penalty in melee. In addition to that, it also lowers the price of hero spells by two points. This creature should be a part of every Tower army.
Notes[]
- Theodorus is a specialist in mages, and gives them +1 to Attack and Defense per hero level after fourth level. These creatures also get +1 to Speed.
