'''Air magic''' is one of the [[secondary skill]]s. It increases the effectiveness of hero's air magic [[spells]].

==Description==
Air Magic is easily overrated, due to good damage spells and adventure [[Adventure spell|map movement spells]]. However, the first groups strength decrease when [[stack]] sizes grow, and the spells in the second category are [[banned]] more often than not. What remains is a few good spells, and a handful of mediocre ones. [[Haste]] and [[Lightning Bolt]] are both very useful, [[Chain Lightning]] does good damage, but can easily backfire. [[Counterstrike]] can be an enormous aid, especially when cast on [[Hydra]]s or [[Vampire Lord]]s. However, Air Magic's greatest assets are [[Dimension Door]] and [[Fly]], which can get your [[Hero]] into places he or she couldn't have gotten into otherwise, or be used to launch a surprise attack on an enemy [[town]]. The other spells are at best of circumstancial use.

-Air Magic is a school of magic, along with Earth, Fire and Water Magic. There is a special rule in place that offers schools of magic more often as a choice when leveling up than the secondary skill learning percentages suggest: A new school of magic will be offered at least every 4 levels for Might heroes and every 3 levels for Magic heroes. If can be offered more often by chance. Example: The Might hero was not offered a school of magic when reaching levels 2 and 3. The hero will then be guaranteed to be offered a magic school at level 4. At level 8, the hero will be offered again a new magic school if none was offered at levels 5, 6 and 7.

-Like other magic schools, Air Magic is very important. At the expert level, [[Haste]] may help a lot as your entire army will possibly move before the enemy's army, and even some very slow units get decent speed. [[Dimension Door]] and [[Fly]] are extremely helpful for moving on the adventure map. [[Chain Lightning]] may wipe out the whole opposing army (while it's a double-edged sword, as if there are less than five stacks, Chain Lightning will damage your own troops - initially it hits four stacks, thus you get unable to use it against an enemy with that exact stacks number), and [[Lightning Bolt]] is useful on early stages of the game. Other helpful Air spells are, for example, [[Disrupting Ray]], [[Precision]], and [[Counterstrike]].
-The main reasons for choosing Air Magic are [[Fly]], [[Dimension Door]] and [[Haste]] spells. The first two are perhaps the most powerful [[Spell#Adventure spells|adventure spells]], together with [[Town Portal]]. However, both of them are typically banned in custom maps. Nevertheless, Expert Air Magic causes Haste to be cast as a [[mass spell]], which still makes it worth the secondary skill slot. Other noteworthy spells are [[Lightning Bolt]] and [[Chain Lightning]], both powerful combat spells.
-Don't forget [[view air]], it lets you see ALL towns and player heroes even in areas that you haven't explored yet. Requires no movement points and only 1 spell point.
