Although efreet are immune to fire magic, they are not unaffected by fire-based creature attacks. For example [[magog]]s' fireball attack or [[dragon]]s' breath attacks are not considered to be magical and therefore they do harm efreet.

Whereas they can be [[slow]]ed to be targeted by [[ranged attackers]], they are formidable offensive units. Being able to fly at a relatively high speed, in addition to the devastating fire shield and immunity to [[Blind]] makes these some of the most formidable 6th level creatures in Heroes III. Efreet are extremely useful for sieging towns. Their rivalry against [[genie]]s is in fact an advantage as efreet are on a higher level than genies, and therefore stronger and faster. | ||
'''Tip:''' If your hero has slow, it should be utilized against efreet. Past that, you should try and soften or kill them with [[direct damage spells]] or ranged attackers, because the fire shield can inflict heavy losses, especially to [[creature stacks]] far stronger. Beware of situations in which the enemy is defeated by killing a stack of efreet sultans, but fire shield kills some of your troops, and you can't resurrect/animate them. It may even cause a draw if you lose your entire army as well. | '''Tip:''' If your hero has slow, it should be utilized against efreet.
