The jousting ability of Cavaliers can increase their damage up to +35% and Champions up to +45% without any speed elevations. The increase can be even higher, if the hero can increase their speed for example with artifacts ([[Cape of Velocity]], [[Necklace of Swiftness]] or [[Ring of the Wayfarer]]) or with spells ([[Haste]] or [[Prayer]]). Additionally, using Tyris who specializes in Cavaliers and Champions or [[Sir Mullich]], whose troops recieve +2 to speed, can increase the damage of Cavaliers and Champions significantly. Because of the jousting ability, a player should always prioritizate to attack across as many hexes as possible.

Jousting bonus

Cavaliers and Champions are level 6 creatures of Castle. They are recruited from Training Grounds. Tyris the Knight has a specialty in Cavaliers and Champions, which increases their attack and defense skills for each level she attains after the 6th level.

Cavaliers are upgraded to Champions for free, when the hero visits Stables found on the Adventure Map.

Special ability

The horse-mounted cavalier and champion deal extra impact damage when charging into battle. This jousting bonus is +5% per hex traveled before attacking target creature. For example, moving five hexes before the attack will increase their damage by 25%.

Pikeman and Halberdier are immune to this jousting bonus, which means they only suffer the base damage from cavalier and champion.

Tactics

The jousting ability of Cavaliers can increase their damage up to +35% and Champions up to +45% without any speed elevations. The increase can be even higher, if the hero can increase their speed for example with artifacts (Cape of Velocity, Necklace of Swiftness or Ring of the Wayfarer) or with spells (Haste or Prayer). Additionally, using Tyris who specializes in Cavaliers and Champions or Sir Mullich, whose troops recieve +2 to speed, can increase the damage of Cavaliers and Champions significantly. Because of the jousting ability, a player should always prioritize to attack across as many hexes as possible.
