Generally, Eagle Eye is considered one of, if not the least desirable secondary skill, as the preferred ones are those which improve units' strength ([[Archery]], [[Armorer]], [[Offense]]), help in casting spells (various schools of magic), or make gameplay significantly easier ([[Diplomacy]], [[Logistics]], [[Tactics]]). However, it may limitedly help when it's impossible to get a spell from your town's [[Mage Guild]] (e.g. [[Bless]] in [[Inferno]], or [[Curse]] in [[Castle]] and [[Rampart]]) and you are expecting to fight a battle against another player early on in the game, before you can find a shrine for it. Together with advanced or expert [[Wisdom]], Expert Eagle Eye may be situationally usable for [[Stronghold]] and [[Fortress]] heroes, as their Mage Guilds are limited to 3rd level, and learning [[Resurrection]] and having Advanced [[Earth Magic]] could change the whole dynamics of battle. | |||
Part of the criticism behind Eagle Eye is that even with Expert Eagle Eye and all 3 of the Eagle Eye artifacts equipped, it still can not guarantee learning a spell used in combat, totalling to a 90% effectiveness rate. Other flaws include requiring the battle to either be lost or to be won before the spells are added into the spellbook, inability to learn 5th level spells, and inability to learn adventure map spells. Thus it earns its place as a common laughingstock of a skill, very rarely ever coming in handy. | |||
