The jousting ability of Cavaliers can increase their damage up to +35% and Champions up to +45% without any speed-increasing effects, meaning their damage can be higher than any level 6's, but [[Naga and Naga Queen|Naga Queens]] and [[Black Knight and Dread Knight|Dread Knights]] compensate for this with their specialties. The increase can be even higher, if the hero can increase their speed for example with artifacts ([[Cape of Velocity]], [[Necklace of Swiftness]] or [[Ring of the Wayfarer]]) or with spells ([[Haste]] or [[Prayer]]). Additionally, using Tyris who specializes in Cavaliers and Champions or [[Sir Mullich]], whose troops receive +2 to speed, can increase the damage of Cavaliers and Champions significantly. Because of the jousting ability, a player should always prioritize to attack across as many hexes as possible. | The jousting ability of Cavaliers can increase their damage up to +35% and Champions up to +45% without any speed-increasing effects, meaning their damage can be higher than any level 6's, but [[Naga and Naga Queen|Naga Queens]] and [[Black Knight and Dread Knight|Dread Knights]] compensate for this with their specialties.

15/16 [[Attack]] and [[Defense]] is decent for level 6 unit. 15-25 [[damage]] is about average, but 20-25 of Champions is a bit better. In practice their damage done is almost always higher because even when dueling other stack in the middle of battlefield they can travel at least 3 hexes to get 15% bonus. Their first strikes from maximal possible range are especially powerful, as their average damage after moving full 9 hexes is 22,5 x 1,45 | 15/16 [[Attack]] and [[Defense]] is decent for level 6 unit. 15-25 [[damage]] is about average, but 20-25 of Champions is a bit better.

Their first strikes from maximal possible range are especially powerful, as their average damage after moving full 9 hexes is 22,5 x 1,45 = 32,625, more than even [[Naga Queen]]s can normally do, and maximum is 36,25 per Champion. 100 [[health]] is above average, but they are not as tough as [[Black Knight]]s. 7-9 [[Speed]] is good for a non-flying creature. | ||
[[Bless]] and [[Curse]] have much stronger effect on Cavaliers than Champions due to larger damage spread. Champions are usually more affected by spells changing their attack, like [[Bloodlust]] or [[Weakness]]. [[Shield]] and [[Stone Skin]] are probably their best defense buffs as they are quite fast and unless sieging a town, they will not be taking much ranged fire. Against level 7 creatures use [[Slayer]] combined with their jousting charge to ensure great damage. [[Frenzy]] can allow them to hit as hard as level 7 creatures themselves, but at cost of losing defense - if Frenzied Champions don't wipe the target out in first strike, they will be hit back hard too. [[Haste]] not only increases their initiative and range but also damage, if they can exploit it. [[Prayer]] increases their speed, attack and defense at once and stacks with Haste. | [[Bless]] and [[Curse]] have much stronger effect on Cavaliers than Champions due to larger damage spread.
