| | Efreeti are among the game's most dangerous creatures. Whereas they can be [[slowed]] to be targeted by [[Ranged attackers]], they are formidable offensive units. Being able to fly at a relatively high speed, in addition to the devastating fire shield and immunity to [[Blind]] makes these some of the most formidable 6th level creatures in Heroes III. |
| | |
| | '''Tip:''' If your hero has slow, it should be utilized on Efreet. Past that, you should try and soften or kill them with [[direct damage spells]] or ranged attackers, because the fire shield can inflict heavy losses, even to [[creature stacks]] far stronger. |

| i promised to use my reading skills more often and look what did it do to me.

|
| |
| efreeti/efreet spelling seems to be the peculiar/interesting/wild DnD tradition:

|
| |
| https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Efreeti
| |
|
| |
| i traced the source back to 1993 [https://en.calameo.com/read/000000019bbda177554aa DnD Monster Manual], which is more than enough for us.
| |
|
| |
| all the in-game spelling seems to follow this rule (mostly).
| |
|
| |
| efreeT:
| |
| *[[Restoration_of_Erathia_Manual_Page_98]] - plural ('Efreet and Efreet Sultans')
| |
| *as a race (Rashka, Octavia, Xyron, Zydar) - singular
| |
| *[[Restoration_of_Erathia_Manual_Page_114]] - plural ('damage to efreet')
| |
| *[[Rumor]] - plural (Efreet are unaffected by spells of Fire Magic)
| |
| *HeroSpec.txt specialty name - plural (or it will be the only singular among Demons, Dragons, Elves and so on from other creature specialties)
| |
| *CRTRAITS.TXT - plural: 1 - Efreeti/Efreet; 2 - 'Hates Efreet' (in comparison to 'Hates Genies')
| |
|
| |
| efreeTI:
| |
| *[[Armageddon's Blade Manual Page 10]] Xeron's race - singular (Male Efreeti)
| |
| *HEROBIOS.TXT Xyron's bio - singular ('Xyron seems to like fire even more than anyone would expect of an Efreeti')

| since im still not comfortable enough in the new efreeti/efreet reality, im not sure what we have to do with all this, but seems like some fixes should be done --[[User:GroundhogYear|GroundhogYear]] ([[User talk:GroundhogYear|talk]]) 18:17, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

| ::ure still trying to deny what's happening here too. i understand that. Efreeti and Efreet, but Efreet Sultan and Efreet Sultans. --[[User:GroundhogYear|GroundhogYear]] ([[User talk:GroundhogYear|talk]]) 21:58, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

| :::I vote we treat efreet like foot/feet. 1 efroot, 2 efreet. [[File:Hero Stormblessed small.gif|→ima|link=user:imahero]] 01:30, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
| |
| ::::I'm guessing the [[Capitalization Reference|changing of creatures to lower case]] is likely more of a trigger for most people (than going from efreet to efreeti). [[File:Hero Rashka small.gif|→ima|link=user:imahero]] 03:30, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
