Some may find the information in this section subjective or irrelevant.

Air and Storm Elementals have the widest damage range in the game. This makes them awesome with Bless, but useless with Curse.


Air and Storm Elementals are the only 2nd level units without a hero specializing in them.


In order to combat Storm Elementals' vulnerability to Lightning Bolt, put 1 Storm Elemental out of your shooting stack (if you have space) and use that one to cast Protection from Air to the stronger stack.
