Merist's specialty gives in addition to the normal [[Stone Skin]] [[defense]] bonus:
<br />{{---}} +3 to creatures on level 1–2
<br />{{---}} +2 to creatures on level 3–4
<br />{{---}} +1 to creatures on level 5–6
<br />{{---}} 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.
