Specialty

Merist's specialty gives in addition to the normal Stone Skin defense bonus:
    +3 to creatures on level 1–2
    +2 to creatures on level 3–4
    +1 to creatures on level 5–6
    No additional bonus for creatures on level 7.

Although the in-game description of the specialty states, "based on hero level compared to the level of the target unit", the hero's level has no effect on the specialty.
