Wights can also be raised with Advanced Necromancy if the hero has equipped the [[Cloak of the Undead King|Cloak of the Undead King]].
== General Tactics and Info ==
The Dread Knights are considered to be the best level 6 unit, alongside the [[Naga and Naga Queen|Naga Queens]]. They also have the highest attack, defense and health for a level 6 unit, accompanied by the largest damage range.


== Abilities ==
== Heroes with a specialty ==
===== Special ability curse =====
Black and Dread Knights' curse ability behaves slightly different from the [[Curse]] spell as it is not considered [[School of Fire Magic|fire school]] spell. This is due to a fact that the ability is not affected by [[Fiery Fields]] [[terrain]], and creatures with immunity to fire magic (e.g. [[Fire Elemental]]s) are not affected by it. However, the ability is affected by the [[Magic Plains]].


===== Special ability death blow =====
*{{H|Charna|Death Knight}} has wights as a [[Specialty#Creature_specialties|specialty]], which increases the Attack and Defense skills of any Wights or Wraiths for each level attained after 3rd  level and gives them a [[speed]] bonus of 1.
Dread Knights' special ability death blow gives them 20% chance of dealing double base damage when attacking a creature stack. The game information states that Dread Knights would deal double damage when the death blow occurs, but that is not technically correct as it only doubles the base damage. In other words, bonuses from [[Offense]], [[Luck]] or attack-defense difference are not doubled. See [[Damage|damage calculation]] for more specific information about the matter.


== Heroes with a specialty ==
== General Tactics and Info ==
*{{H|Tamika|Death Knight|}} has black knights as a [[Specialty#Creature_specialties|specialty]], which increases the Attack and Defense skills of any Black Knights or Dread Knights for each level attained after 6th level, and gives them a [[speed]] bonus of 1.
The Wraiths are good to be given to scouts, since their speed is the highest amongst the Necropolis units that will probably not end up in the main army, at least not as a main troop, but just to steal mana.
*[[File:Hero Lord Haart Death Knight small.gif]] [[Lord Haart Death Knight|Lord Haart]] the [[Death Knight]] increases the Attack and Defense skills of any Black Knights or Dread Knights +5 and damage +10.

Wights and Wraiths are level 3 creatures of Necropolis town. They are recruited from the Tomb of Souls.

"Wights and wraiths are life destroying spirits damaging their opponents by draining life. The first wight or wraith in each troop regenerates all lost damage at the beginning of each combat round. While wraiths appear on the battlefield, two spell points per turn are drained from an enemy spellcaster's spell points pool." RoE manual

Wights can also be raised with Advanced Necromancy if the hero has equipped the Cloak of the Undead King.

Heroes with a specialty

  • Charna Charna the Death Knight has wights as a specialty, which increases the Attack and Defense skills of any Wights or Wraiths for each level attained after 3rd level and gives them a speed bonus of 1.

General Tactics and Info

The Wraiths are good to be given to scouts, since their speed is the highest amongst the Necropolis units that will probably not end up in the main army, at least not as a main troop, but just to steal mana.
