Detailed Video Guides

Hello H3 Community,

I've been working a lot to provide some informative high quality Heroes 3 guides. I am trying to cover every possible detail with a nice and clean presentation.
The information comes from my experience and from various Heroes 3 sites. Every info added in the video is thoroughly tested in-game to make sure all the information is accurate.

I would like to use this topic for feedback, ideas and help with some more in depth stuff that I have no knowledge of. If anyone is interested in helping please let me know as I am currently working on a Immunities/Resistances guide and there are a few things that I would like to ask.

Below is the playlist with the published Guides so far:

Thank you!

So what exactly do you want to ask?

Hello Mortarial,

Mostly how the Resistance Stacks with other sources.I haven't finalized the video yet so many more questions may come.
These are my questions so far:

1. If there are two Unicorns adjacent to a creature, do the chances to resist a spell increase for that creature? Or it is affected only by one Unicorn?
2. If two Unicorns provide more resistance how is this calculated? Will it it be 40% or ..?
3. Does the unicorn ability stack with the Dwarves? What will be the final Resistance % ?
4. How all these abilities work with the resistance spell? Do they all stack? Do they all add up?
5. Same goes for the artifacts, do they all stack with everything mentioned above?
6. Any special reason why Gargoyles do not share the same immunities as other non-living creatures?
7. I keep reading that advanced Fire Shield can benefit Efreets. How is this possible since they are immune to fire spells?
8. Dispel is coded to work on all creatures to matter whether or not they are immune to level 1 spells?
9. What chances do Faerie Dragons have to resist a spell?

Any extra information you know over this will greatly help me.
By the way, I credit you in the video if you would like!
Thanks a lot.

I found an old thread that deals with the unicorn related questions.

1. Only one aura takes effect. They do not stack.
2. See above.
3. It stacks multiplicatively with innate resistances, so the Dwarves resistance will be 1 - (1 * (1 - 0.2) * (1 - 0.2) = 36%.
4. By resistance spell you mean Magic Mirror? If yes, then the total chance to resist goes in the same way as above.
5. Unlike other similar artifacts, Resistance artifacts stack additively, so your Battle Dwarf with Expert Resistance and Boots of Polarity will have 40% + 20% + 15% = 75% chance to resist. As you can see, Resistance secondary skill also stacks additively with the creature's innate resistance. In case there is a friendly Unicorn next to him, his total chance to resist will be 1 - (1 * (1 - 0.75) * (1 - 0.2) = 80%.
6. Can't tell why it was designed this way. Perhaps they didn't want to have 3 mind immune creatures for Tower. Maybe they wanted to increase the Leadership value for Tower.
7. Orb of Vulnerability.
8. Can't tell how it is coded exactly, but it ignores any innate immunity.
9. 20%, just like basic Magic Mirror.
