===== Special ability curse ===== | |||
Black and Dread Knights' curse ability behaves slightly different from the [[Curse]] spell as it is not considered [[School of Fire Magic|fire school]] spell. This is due to a fact that the ability is not affected by [[Fiery Fields]] [[terrain]], and creatures with immunity to fire magic (e.g. [[Fire Elemental]]s) are not affected by it. However, the ability is affected by the [[Magic Plains]]. | |||
===== Special ability death blow ===== | |||
===== Special | |||
Dread Knights' special ability death blow gives them 20% chance of dealing double base damage when attacking a creature stack. The game information states that Dread Knights would deal double damage when the death blow occurs, but that is not technically correct as it only doubles the base damage. In other words, bonuses from [[Offense]], [[Luck]] or attack-defense difference are not doubled. See [[Damage|damage calculation]] for more specific information about the matter. | Dread Knights' special ability death blow gives them 20% chance of dealing double base damage when attacking a creature stack.

The Dread Knights are considered to be the best level 6 unit, alongside the [[Naga and Naga Queen|Naga Queens]]. They also have the highest attack, defense and health for a level 6 unit, accompanied by the largest damage range and max damage (together with the [[Naga Queen|Naga Queens]] who have a fixed damage value). However, the weaknesses of the [[Bone and Ghost Dragon|Bone and Ghost Dragons]] compensate for their strength. | |||
