Mysticism | ||
Basic Mysticism: allows your hero to regenerate 2 spell points per day. (5 in Horn of the Abyss) | ||
Advanced Mysticism: allows your hero to regenerate 3 spell points per day. (10 in Horn of the Abyss) | ||
Expert Mysticism: allows your hero to regenerate 4 spell points per day. (15 in Horn of the Abyss) |
Mysticism is one of secondary skills. Normally heroes regenerate one spell point per day, but mysticism enables heroes to regenerate up to four points per day.
Heroes with Basic Mysticism as a starting skill:
- Ingham the Cleric
- Josephine the Alchemist
- Piquedram the Alchemist
- Rissa the Alchemist
- Thant the Necromancer
- Torosar the Alchemist
Heroes with Mysticism as a specialty and a starting skill:
- Axsis the Heretic (Basic Mysticism)
- Halon the Wizard (Basic Mysticism)
- Jaegar the Warlock (Basic Mysticism)
- Rosic the Witch (Basic Mysticism)
Artifacts with similar ability:
- Charm of Mana – regenerates 1 extra spell point per day.
- Talisman of Mana – regenerates 2 extra spell points per day.
- Mystic Orb of Mana – regenerates 3 extra spell points per day.
- Wizard's Well - regenerates all spell points in a day.
Horn of the Abyss[edit | hide | hide all]
In Horn of the Abyss , the skill regenerates 5, 10, and 15 spell points per day.
Comparison with Intelligence[edit | hide]
Both Intelligence and Mysticism increase the amount of mana the hero can spend before returning to their town (as spending a night at a town with a Mage Guild replenishes hero's mana pool). Assuming that heroes use a certain average amount of mana each day, and that the moment a hero runs out of mana they immediately return to one of their towns to replenish it, Mysticism is superior to Intelligence as long as the hero's average daily mana spending is less than 6 / 3.8 / 3 times their daily mana regeneration bonus from Mysticism respectively for Basic / Advanced / Expert Intelligence.
In simpler terms, Mysticism is preferable to Intelligence if on average, the hero spends at most 6 / 7.6 / 9 (24 / 34.2 / 42 ) mana per day (for Basic, Advanced and Expert respectively, assuming Mysticism and Intelligence are at the same level of proficiency).
Obviously, these assumptions do not apply if the hero has easy access to wells, magic springs, the mana vortex or the Wizard's Well artifact.

In the traditional Heroes 3, Mysticism is usually ignored by players. There are opportunities to restore all mana points, namely Magic Wells and towns with a Mage Guild, and a Magic Spring or Mana Vortex in Dungeon will double them.
