}} From the [[direct damage spells]] with a damage dealing capability of 300 + (power × 75), it is the most destructive spell for a single creature stack. From the spells that can cause collateral damage, [[Armageddon]] is the most destructive.

Implosion also has the highest slope value of 75, which means that for every point [[power]] increases Implosion does 75 points more damage. In comparison, Armageddon has 50, [[Chain Lightning]] has 40 and [[Magic Arrow]] has 10.

The highest possible damage for Implosion casted by a player is 22711 points of damage. This requires Expert Earth Magic (or [[Rockland]], or [[Magic plains]]), Expert Sorcery, Sorcery as hero specialty (gives 5% bonus to Sorcery per level), maximum Power (99), maximum hero level (108) and [[Orb of Silt]]. 14986 (c. 66%) points are the bonus from Sorcery skill. Therefore this is the highest possible damage to deal to one unit by one spell by a player. It is, however, possible for [[Faerie Dragon]] to cast spells of theoretically infinite strength. For highest possible damage to deal to multiple units at once by one spell, see [[Armageddon]].

'''Units immune to Implosion:'''

Armageddon's Blade (artifact)

Samaj:

{{Relic artifacts}}{{Artifact
| name = Armageddon's Blade
| class = relic
| slot = weapon
| cost = 50000
| effect = Increses attack +3, defense +3, knowledge +6 and power +3. Places expert [[armageddon]] spell in hero's spell book. All allied creatures become immune to armageddon.}} While equipped, the blade increases hero's [[attack]], [[defense]] and [[power skill]] by +3 and [[knowledge skill]] by +6. Addtionally, it places expert level [[Armageddon]] [[spell]] in the hero's [[spell book]], and makes all creatures in the hero's army immune to the Armageddon spell.

== Discussion ==
Armageddon's Blade is the key artifact in the [[Armageddon's Blade (Campaign)|Armageddon's Blade campaign]]. Unlike in regular game, in the campaign game the artifact is created by combining [[Sword of Hellfire]], [[Shield of the Damned]] and [[Breastplate of Brimstone]]. However, the blade is not an an actual [[combination artifact]]. Typically Armageddon's Blade is banned in multiplayer maps, as it makes the wielder hero extremely powerful.

Using Armageddon's Blade and [[Orb of Vulnerability]] at the same time makes enemy troops usually unaffected by [[Armageddon]] vulnerable to the spell with your [[Creatures]] still immune to the spell.

Orb of Vulnerability

2017-01-12T22:23:23Z

Samaj: Added a comment, that Orb of Vulnerability and Armageddon's Blade give you huge benefits. Checked it on Phoenixes on Heroes 3 Shadow of Death.

{{Relic artifacts}}{{Artifact
| class = relic
| slot = miscellaneous
| cost = 25000
| effect = During combat, this orb negates the natural magic resistance of all creatures on the battlefield. }}

Equipped in a [[Misc.]] slot, this orb negates all [[Magic Resistance]] and almost all immunities. It can be a bane for creatures with strong magical resistance. It is often used to stop the [[Dracageddon]] tactic.

You cannot purchase relic artifacts in [[Artifact Merchants]].

==Comments==
If you use [[Armageddon's Blade (artifact)|Armageddon's Blade]] and Orb of Vulnerability at the same time you make enemy troops usually unaffected by [[Armageddon]] vulnerable to the spell and you still keep the resistance for allied troops.
