Specialty

The specialty of Coronius adds to Slayer's basic +8 attack bonus against the certain lvl 7 creatures:
    +4 attack for level 1 creatures
    +3 attack for level 2 creatures
    +2 attack for level 3 creatures
    +1 attack for level 4 creatures
    No additional bonus for creatures on level 5-7.

Although the description of the specialty states, "based on hero level compared to the level of the target unit", Coronius' level has no effect on the specialty.

The specialty gives Rampart creatures the following attack values against the certain level 7 creatures: Centaur and Centaur Captain: 17/18 Dwarf and Battle Dwarf: 17/18 Wood Elf and Grand Elf: 19 Pegasus and Silver Pegasus: 18 While this does give them as much attack as a Green Dragon, the main issue is that without level 7 creatures you won't get any benefit from casting Slayer. Not helping matters is that Druids have a low chance of learning Fire Magic and without it, you won't be able to utilize that attack bonus against Archangels, Arch Devils, or Titans. Having Scholar as his secondary skill makes him useable as a secondary hero, with as low as 3 level ups Coronius can have Expert Scholar and Advanced Wisdom allowing him to teach any spell up to fourth level to other heroes which includes his Slayer.
