As opposed to what the manual states, Wisdom is not required to cast third or higher level spells, but rather to learn them. For example [[Solmyr]] can cast [[Chain Lighting]] which is a 4th level spell without having Advanced Wisdom. Every hero has a starting spell but only few have other than a first level. Additionally, it is possible to edit heroes through map editor to have any number of spells in their spell book. By default the following heroes have a higher level spell than their wisdom allows them to learn:
As opposed to what the manual states, Wisdom is not required to ''cast'' third or higher level spells, only to ''learn'' them. For example [[Solmyr]] has 4th level spell ([[Chain Lightning]]) but he is still able to cast it without Advanced Wisdom. Also [[spell scroll]]s and Tomes of [[Tome of Air|Air]], [[Tome of Earth|Earth]], [[Tome of Fire|Fire]] and [[Tome of Water|Water]] enables hero to cast any level of spell regardless of their level of Wisdom skill.

* [[Alamar]] - [[Resurrection]]
* [[Coronius]] - [[Slayer]]
* [[Deemer]] - [[Meteor Shower]]
* [[Loynis]] - [[Prayer]]
* [[Solmyr]] - [[Chain Lightning]]


It's also worth noting that using [[Spell Scroll]]s and/or Tomes of Magic, it is possible for a hero to cast [[Spell#Adventure spells|Adventure spells]] that they shouldn't be able to learn because of their expertise (or lack thereof) in Wisdom.
'''Heroes with Wisdom as a starting skill:'''
All  [[Cleric]]s, [[Druid]]s, [[Wizard]]s, [[Heretic]]s, [[Warlock]]s, [[Battle Mage]]s, [[Witch]]es and [[Elementalist]]s (and [[Navigator]]s {{withhota}}) start with basic Wisdom. Additionally, the following heroes start with advanced wisdom:

Wisdom is nearly compulsory to every hero regardless of the faction, hero class or map size. It may be unnecessary in simple layout small or medium sized maps, where the game advances quickly and straightforward. In other words, the game never progress far enough for spells above level 3 to be required. Another exception would be, that [[Orb of Inhibition]] or [[Recanter's Cloak]] is found early in the game. However, at large and extra large maps wisdom is vital for all heroes.
