Recommended for: All heroes.
 
[[Dungeon]] heroes have [[mana vortex]] which gets them an additional 100% mana points added to a [[Dungeon]] visiting hero (one hero can replenish, every 7 days, per [[Dungeon]] town with this building).

Intelligence is a excellent supportive secondary skill. Especially in large and extra large maps, where heroes grow to be more "mighty and magical", the amount of mana points may become crucial. For example, [[Resurrection|resurrecting]] a large army can consume massive amount of mana points. Dungeon heroes may be able to pass Intelligence, because they typically have the opportunity to build [[Mana Vortex]] in their cities, which basically has the same effect as expert Intelligence – the spell point maximum is doubled.

Discussion

Intelligence is a excellent supportive secondary skill. Especially in large and extra large maps, where heroes grow to be more "mighty and magical", the amount of mana points may become crucial. For example, resurrecting a large army can consume massive amount of mana points. Dungeon heroes may be able to pass Intelligence, because they typically have the opportunity to build Mana Vortex in their cities, which basically has the same effect as expert Intelligence – the spell point maximum is doubled.
