Secondary skills are beneficial qualities of heroes. There are 28 different secondary skills and each one has three levels: basic, advanced and expert. Each level increases the capability of the secondary skill making it more influential. Typically in custom scenarios heroes start with either two secondary skills at basic level or one at advanced level. Each hero can have up to eight secondary skills.

If a hero does not already posses eight secondary skills, he/she gets an offer of two different skill during level-up. The first offer is a skill s/he already posses but which is not yet at expert level. The second offer is random, but the probabilities of the skills offered are dependent on the hero's class. If a hero already has all secondary skills at expert level, both offers are random. If a hero already has eight secondary skills, both offers are random but within the skills hero has.
