Facts (valid for Horn of the Abyss)
- At Basic, Advanced or Expert Level, Armorer reduces all damage inflicted by 5%, 10% or 15%.
- At Basic, Advanced or Expert Level, Offense increases hand-to-hand damage by 10%, 20% or 30%.
- At Basic, Advanced or Expert Level, Archery increases ranged damage by 10%, 25% or 50%.
- 9 heroes (+ 1 campaign hero Roland) start with Armorer as a secondary skill and 3 specialize in it Mephala, Neela and Tazar.

- 9 heroes (+ 1 campaign hero Gelu) start with Archery as a secondary skill and 1 specialize in it Orrin.
Notes
- Armorer will benefit all your troops while Offense will benefit shooters less (only when they attack in melee).
- Archery has the biggest bonus, but only works for shooters.
- Inferno, Necropolis and Fortress have 1 shooter, Tower has 3 and all other towns have 2 shooters. Probably, because the Archery applies to fewer stacks in your army, the bonus is bigger to balance the skill.
- Beastmasters from Fortress are most likely to learn Armorer (10% chance), followed by Alchemists from Tower (8% chance).
- Barbarians from Stronghold are most likely to learn Offense (10% chance), followed by Captains from Cove (9% chance).
- Captains from Cove are most likely to learn Archery (9% chance), followed by Rangers from Rampart and Planeswalkers from Conflux (8% chance).
