| ===== Special ability curse =====
| | [[Category: Parts of combination artifacts]] |
| 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 =====
| |
| 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 =====
| |
| *{{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.
| |
| *[[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.
