| Name | Type | Description | Fix | Tested |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mechanic and Engineer's Breath attack against 2-hex units | Bug | When attacking a 2-hex unit from the middle hex above or below it, the fire breath follows the direction of the Mechanic's or Engineer's movement rather than the direction of the sword-arrow. | The issue remains unsolved. | 1.7.0, Csaros (talk) 18:06, 25 January 2024 (UTC) |
| Whirlpool limit | Bug | The Whirlpool does not engulf creatures if the only stacks available have a Fight Value over 99,999,999. | The issue remains unsolved. | 1.7.0, Csaros (talk) 11:48, 30 January 2024 (UTC). |
| Starting experience | Bug | Heroes with default level 1 start actually having some random amount of experience in the double digits. | The issue remains unsolved. | 1.7.0, --Csaros (talk) 20:45, 25 January 2024 (UTC) |
| Disassembling combination artifacts in the hero exchange screen in allied multiplayer | Bug | If you're playing a game with another allied human player and go to the hero exchange screen you can disassemble an artifact like the armor of the damned from their hero's equipment thus crashing the game for yourself. I imagine that disassembling a combination artifact in another players backpack when it is full would also cause a game crash | The issue remains unsolved. | 1.7.0, guest273 (talk) |
| Fire Shield - Bad Luck interaction | Bug | Fire shield damage ignores Bad Luck effects. This issue is potentially intended, as it favours the Inferno town, who decrease enemy luck and have the only unit with permanent Fire Shield - Efreet Sultan. |
The issue remains unsolved. | 1.7.0, Csaros (talk) 13:56, 24 February 2024 (UTC) |
| Jeddite's biography. | Text | The biography says "Zenofex" instead of "Xenofex" | Editing HotA_lng.lod / HeroBios.txt solves it, as this is where the issue originates. | 1.7.0, Csaros (talk) 16:46, 13 February 2024 (UTC) |
| Tarred and Feathered's level limit text. | Text | The campaign description says "limited to level 20" instead of "limited to level 24" | Editing HotA_lng.lod / H4Fact.h3c / 0406.h3m solves it, as this is where the issue originates. | 1.7.0,  16:23, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

| Earthquake bug | Bug | See the page - Seems like an AI defender can get bugged with repeated use of this spell. |
