what is the worst unit in Heroes 3 and why (includes expansions)

I made this topic to see what you all think  is the worst unit in Heroes 3 plus expansions.

I would like an explanation why.
Also try not say what the worst creature is without an explanation or reason why you think it.
It can be any creature/unit from any level (lev1, lev2 etc).


So can't wait for all your replies.

Well, one look at the Peasants stats says it all. It's not like they were any better than they were before.

Okay, APART from the Peasant. . .I haven't used all the units, so I can't tell. . .

I'd have to agree about the Peasants being the worst. Imps were already very weak, but the inclusion of the Peasants put them at least a step up the food chain. I prefer the H2 Peasants, because I liked their pain/death sound effects.

In my opinion the EARTH elementals(not summoned from spell) are useless because they are low in numbers,low in stats(healt,dmg, SPEED) and especialy without usefull special abilities.The only case i need to buy them is put my money into something if i have a lot.For the batles their only use is to be a target or to get the enemy retaliation.

If you play NECRO they are very good to transform because they a are great in numbers.Once i've played a game with 13 out of town peasant dwellings.This mean 325 skels per week on free!!!On the 4th week i had 2500 skels
instead of 1000-1500.Well the peasents can be crutial for the whole game some times!!

For Aciant Bahas: are you in your mind they are the best 7lvl unit!If you can't find the way to use them it is your problem.

As in previous HOMM games, the peasant is the worst of units. It is so weak! it has 1 in all the stats! what the hell is the matter with 1 HP?! there can be nothing worse than that. If talking about the original HOMM III, its a duel between the goblin and the imp. Both have only one good thing: speed. For 1st level creatures the are fairly fast. But besides that, both just suck! low HP, low attack & defence, no ranged attack, just plain week. Which one is worse? I don't know, both have a groth rate of 38.
If talking about the 7th level creatures, it's a choice between the behemoth and the hydra. Both have low stats for their level (18, 20 for the hydra and 19,19 for the behemoth) and are fairly slow. But the HP isn't bad (275 for the hydra and 300(!) for the behemoth). The abilities are good as well: many headed attack for the hydra and defence reduction for the behemoth. Despite that these 2 can't be compared to other 7th level creature such as the titan, angel or dragons. Although some may argue that the bone dragon is the worse monster. I think that being undead , fast and having the aging ability compensates for low stats.
So for the 7th level, the worse, in my opinion, is the hydra

Well, play a bit on MP and you will change your opinion instantly.
First of all - do you know that attack 19 can be very dangerous with 80% defence reduction? Your beloved Titan will have only 5 defence...
Plus, it is really hard to build titan dwelling week one. All you stronghold friends will already have behemoths while you will only have golden pavillon. With behemoths, it's easier a lot.

Same goes for hydra. Teleport it to the middle of combat and rush! It is possible to win the game very early, just by buildin' hydra pond in week one and charging your enemy. Don't worry about the defence. Beastmasters will take care of it.

I am not calling you a noob. I don't classify people. In my opinion you just need to play a bit on MP and understand that quickness is important.

PS: I you felt bashed, sorry.

No, it's Azure dragon. Come on, one Mighty Moo can kill an Azure Dragon, and it's just a level 5 creature. Really, what kind of level 10 creature gets killed by a level 5 creature?

In my opinion the peasents or the Pixies or Sprites are maybe the orst unit.
They are both slow they have bad stats and they have really weak health.
They are just bad units in my opinion.
