Armor of the Damned is a relic class combination artifact and is equipped in the torso slot. Combination artifacts were first added in the Shadow of Death expansion. In addition to the regular primary skill bonuses from combined artifacts, the armor casts Slow, Curse, Weakness and Misfortune at expert level with a duration of 50 rounds at the beginning of hero's first turn during combat, unless all the enemies are immune to these spells (if all the enemies are immune to some of them, Armor of the Damned casts only spells to which at least one enemy stack is susceptible).
If two player enter the combat with the Armor of the Damned, the defender always casts the spells first. The attacker uses the Armor of the Damned when his first unit starts its turn.

Armor of the Damned is one of the weakest combination artifacts in the game in regards to stats alone (+3 attack, +3 defense, +2 power, +2 knowledge). Conversely, its effect is easily one of the most powerful, casting a total of four spells at Expert level, at no cost, and leaving the hero free to cast another spell on their action (so potentially 5 spells in a single turn). Of the spells cast, only Misfortune is subpar. Slow is one of the best spells in the game and Weakness and Curse are both fairly potent, especially combined. Since it casts its spells only when your first unit becomes active, Armor of the Damned works best with a speedy unit stack and/or combat speed artifacts. If the enemy moves before you, they may haste their units or slow yours, and cripple your army before the Armor ever has a chance of activating. |
