{{user commentary|
Destroy Undead is at its best when fighting against small number of scattered low-tier undead creatures. The damage does not scale enough to cause serious damage when fighting against larger armies with stronger forces. One can easily calculate, that with a power skill of 20, Destroy Undead spell only does 250 points of damage at expert level, which is worth about two [[Dread Knight]]s. Naturally, [[Orb of the Firmament]] and/or [[Sorcery]] can increase the damage, but typically there are more useful spells available than Destroy Undead for harming the enemy.
If you have access to very fast units like [[Serpent Fly and Dragon Fly|Dragon Flies]] or [[Efreet and Efreet Sultan|Efreet Sultans]], use only one creature in your army and attack a group of wandering undead troops which are slower than your sole warrior. When your army is significantly weaker than the [[wandering creature]]s, they are divided in many small stacks, so pressing Destroy Undead just one or two times will be enough.
