This spell is most effective on creatures which have a large damage range and, at Advanced and Expert level, stacks of troops with low damage but large numbers of creatures in them.

	The +1 extra damage bonus from Advanced [[Water Magic]] is more beneficial to units that normally deal low damage as it's greater percentage of their base damage, so it's even more useful to low level units with high numbers and large damage bracket. Many ~~1st~~ level units deal 1-3 damage values - [[Pikeman\|Pikemen]], [[Troglodyte~~\|Troglodytes~~]], [[Sprite~~\|Sprites~~]] ([[Skeleton~~\|Skeletons~~]] too, but as [[Undead]], they cannot be Blessed). [[Harpy and Harpy Hag\|Harpies & Harpy Hags]] with 1-4 damage are perhaps most affected, as Advanced Bless causes them to deal 5 damage instead of 1-4, average 2,5, doubling their output.

The spell is most effective on [[creature\|creatures]] which have a large range between their minimum and maximum damage and, at Advanced and Expert level, [[troop stack\|troop stacks]] with a large amount of creatures in them.

	- More precisely, it's most effective on creatures which have large '''relative proportion of max damage to average damage''' and low damage but high stack numbers. Think of Gremlins with their min 1, avg 1,5, max 2 damage that becomes fixed 2 (+33% from average 1,5) or 3 on Advanced+ (+100% from avg 1,5). Giants and Titans have larger numerical variance (40-60) but their min-avg-max damage ratio is lower - min 1, avg 1,25, max 1,5, so they only get +20% from normal Bless and 22% from Advanced.

Air Elementals & Storm Elementals have 2-8, same proportions, but they don't get as dramatic powerup from Adv Bless - it's only 1/8th and not 1/4th of "normal" max damage.

Advanced Bless has a very minor effect, as 1 point of damage is more or less a negligible amount on such troops. With the exception of peasants; where +1 basically doubles their damage output. This boost could be a game changer in numbers massive enough. However, getting to that point is only reasonable on paper and even then, it is really hard to keep them alive.

	The +1 extra damage bonus from Advanced [[Water Magic]] is more beneficial to units that normally deal low damage as it's greater percentage of their base damage, so it's even more useful to low level units with high numbers and large damage bracket.

	- More precisely, it's most effective on creatures which have large '''relative proportion of max damage to average damage''' and low damage but high stack numbers. Think of Gremlins with their min 1, avg 1,5, max 2 damage that becomes fixed 2 (+33% from average 1,5) or 3 on Advanced+ (+100% from avg 1,5). Giants and Titans have larger numerical variance (40-60) but their min-avg-max damage ratio is lower - min 1, avg 1,25, max 1,5, so they only get +20% from normal Bless and 22% from Advanced.		- More precisely, it's most effective on creatures which have large '''relative proportion of max damage to average damage''' and low damage but high stack numbers.
