Serpent and Dragon Flies are level 3 creatures of Fortress town. They are recruited from the Serpent Fly Hive.

"These giant, flying insects attack by striking with their tail stingers. Their attacks dispel any beneficial spells affecting their target. In addition, the Dragon Flies have the ability to cast Weakness on their opponent every time they attack." SoD manual

Both flies apply their dispelling ability every time they attack. No creatures are immune to it and it can not be resisted in any way.

Tactics and info

As a third-level creatures both serpent and dragon flies are easy to acquire, and with great the great speed of 9 or 13 they make excellent creatures for scouts. Hero with only serpent or dragon flies in the army will move rapidly to scout areas, and with high spell points and power skill can even get through wandering creatures.

Heroes with a specialty

  • Korbac Korbac the Beastmaster has serpent flies as a specialty, which increases the attack and defense skills of any serpent or dragon flies for each level attained after 3rd level and gives them a speed bonus of 1.

Restoration of Erathia and Armageddon's Blade

The in-game description "{{{herospec}}}" is erroneous in "each level attained" moment, and lacks the speed bonus information. (Description is fixed in HotA Horn of the Abyss).

Unlike the native terrain speed bonus, the creature specialty speed bonus can affect the hero's movement points in case the creature is the slowest one in the army.
