'''Hero specialty''' is a characteristic of every hero that typically improves their performance in [[combat]]. Specialties can be categorized into five primary types (i.e. [[secondary skill]]s, [[spell]]s, [[creature]]s, [[war machine]] and [[Hero_specialty#Production_specialties|production]]).
'''Hero specialty''' is a characteristic of every hero that typically improves their performance in [[combat]]. Specialties can be categorized into four types: [[spell]]s, [[creature]]s, [[secondary skill]]s and [[Hero_specialty#Production_specialties|production]]. Production specialties do not have an effect in combat, but instead generate certain [[resources]] (except [[wood]] and [[ore]]) for the kingdom. Most of the specialties are unique, but there are also specialties common to several heroes. For example, [[secondary skill]] [[Offense]] is a specialty of [[Crag Hack]] and [[Gundula]] (and also [[Corkes]] in {{hota}}), and the spell [[Resurrection]] is a specialty of [[Alamar]] and [[Jeddite]].
 
Additonally, {{ab}} and {{sod}} expansions introduced [[Adrienne]], [[Dracon]], [[Gelu]] and [[Sir Mullich]], who have specialties that cannot be categorized into any of the four above mentioned. [[Adrienne]]'s specialty is secondary skill [[Fire Magic]], which however does not work similarly to other secondary skill specialties, as it only allows her to start with expert Fire Magic. [[Dracon]] has [[Enchanter]]s and Gelu has [[Sharpshooter]]s as a specialty. The exception for these two is that [[Dracon]] can upgrade [[Mage and arch mage|Magi and Arch Magi]] as well as [[Monk and zealot|Monks and Zealots]] into [[Enchanter]]s, and [[Gelu]] can upgrade [[Archer and Marksman|Archers and Marksmen]] as well as [[Wood and Grand Elf|Wood Elves and Grand Elves]] into [[Sharpshooter]]s. [[Sir Mullich]] has [[speed]] as a specialty, which increases combat [[speed]] for all creatures under his command by +2 ([[Sir Mullich]] is disabled in {{hota}} by default).

All secondary skill specialties (e.g. {{Hn|Kyrre|0=}} with [[Logistics]], {{Hn|Crag Hack|0=}} with [[Offense]] or {{Hn|Neela|0=}} with [[Armorer]]) work in a similar way. They all increase the secondary skill by 5% per level. The formula for the calculation is as follows:

=== Common spell specialty ===
=== [[Bless]] ===
The normal/common spell specialty increases the efficiency of the spell (after spell power and base spell effect is calculated) by 3% per level, divided by target creature's level. It can be visualised with the following formula: C*(1+0.03 * ''L'' / ''n'') , where ''n'' is the creature's level, ''L'' is the hero's level and C is the base effect of the spell (including spell power and the appropriate magic skill's effects).  
{{Sn|Bless}} is the specialty of {{Hn|Adela|0=}}. It causes [[bless]] to be cast with increased effect, based on hero level compared to the level of the target unit (the bonus is greater when used on weaker units). [[Adela]]'s bless specialty increases the damage of a unit using the following equation:
* base damage * 0.03 * hero level / unit level
This extra damage is in addition to the bless spell. For example, at level 18 [[Adela]] will provide a 54% damage bonus to [[halberdier]]s, 27% to [[marksman|marksmen]], 18% to [[royal griffin]]s, 13.5% to [[crusader]]s, 10.8% to [[zealot]]s, 9% to [[champion]]s, and 7.1% to [[archangel]]s.

=== Unique spell specialty ===
== Creature specialties ==
The spell specialty of some heroes changes the base spell in a unique way.
{{Cn|Devil}}s, {{Cn|Behemoth}}s, and [[Dragon]]s, as well as every creature from level 1 to 6 in every town, except {{Cn|Gremlin}}s, {{Cn|Centaur}}s, {{Cn|Pikeman|Pikemen}}, {{Cn|Pixie}}s, {{Cn|Air Elemental}}s and {{Cn|Medusa}}s has a hero who specializes in them (Note: {{Hn|Galthran|0=}}, the only {{Cn|Skeleton}} specialist, is banned by default in {{hota}} and so is {{Hn|Tark|0=}}{{-wh}}, the {{Cn|Nix}} specialist, {{Hn|Xeron|0=}}{{-wa}}, the {{Cn|Devil}} specialist, {{Hn|Kilgor|0=}}{{-wa}}, the {{Cn|Behemoth}} specialist and {{Hn|Mutare|0=}}{{-wa}} and {{Hn|Mutare Drake|0=}}{{-wa}}, [[Dragon]] specialists). Creature specialties apply to both upgraded and unupgraded units, as long as the hero specializes in the unupgraded version of the unit. In {{sod}}, {{Hn|Catherine|0=}} specializes in {{Cn|Crusader}}s, and therefore {{Cn|Swordsman|Swordsmen}} do not receive any bonuses. No heroes specialize in any of the [[neutral creature]]s, except {{Hn|Gelu|0=}}{{-wa}}{{-ws}} and {{Hn|Dracon|0=}}{{-wa}}, who specialize in {{Cn|Sharpshooter}}s and {{Cn|Enchanter}}s, respectively, although they have creature-upgrade specialties. No heroes specialize in upgraded creatures only, except for {{Hn|Catherine|0=}} (only in {{sod}}{{-ws}}, fixed in {{hota}}{{-wh}}) and {{Hn|Bidley|0=}}{{-wh}}, but his specialty is a creature-upgrade one.
