Importance of Pathfinding skill depends on the terrain of the map. If you walk primarily on your home soil, [[Logistics]] is sufficient. However, if a map has vast territories very hard to pass (e.g. [[swamp]]), Pathfinding works decently.

| Pathfinding | ||
|
Basic Pathfinding: reduces the movement penalty for rough terrain by 25%. | |
|
Advanced Pathfinding: reduces the movement penalty for rough terrain by 50%. | |
|
Expert Pathfinding: reduces the movement penalty for rough terrain by 75%. | |
Pathfinding is a secondary skill, that reduces the movement penalty for rough terrains. A hero with expert pathfinding secondary skills treats all terrains as grass, which means that the hero suffers no penalty for crossing rough, sand, snow or swamp terrain types. Penalty reductions from the skill level are tabulated below.

Importance of Pathfinding skill depends on the terrain of the map. If you walk primarily on your home soil, Logistics is sufficient. However, if a map has vast territories very hard to pass (e.g. swamp), Pathfinding works decently. Playing against Tower or Fortress is a reason to use Logistics and Pathfinding.
Things that ruin Pathfinding
- An army on native terrain
- Nomad's on sand terrain
- Expert Fly
- Angel Wings
- Wayfarer's Boots
