Because of the Jousting ability, Cavaliers/Champions can be considered the game's number 1 when it comes to burst damage. Just equip the [[Necklace of Swiftness]] and [[Cape of Velocity]] to [[Sir Mullich]], then cast Expert [[Haste]], [[Prayer]] and [[Bless]] on the Cavaliers/Champions and there you go - Stupid amount of damage any day.

The jousting ability of Cavaliers can increase their damage up to +35% and Champions up to +45% without any speed elevations. The increase can be even higher, if the hero can increase their speed for example with artifacts ([[Cape of Velocity]], [[Necklase of Swiftness]] or [[Ring of the Wayfarer]]) or with spells ([[Haste]] or [[Prayer]]).
