Editing Secondary skill

'''Secondary skills''' are beneficial qualities of [[hero]]es. There are 28 different secondary skills and each one has three levels: basic, advanced and expert. Each level increases the capability of the secondary skill making it more influential.  Typically in custom scenarios heroes start with either two secondary skills at basic level or one at advanced level. Each hero can have up to eight secondary skills.

Secondary skills are divided into three categories: combat skills, magic skills and adventure skills. Combat skills affect directly to combat capabilities of creatures under hero's command; magic skills affect hero's abilities to cast spells; and adventure skills improves hero's adventure map qualities.

==Frequency Across All Hero Classes==

The following chart is a chart for all hero classes and what skills are the most and least common in the game; the percentage represents roughly the frequency a skill is offered. Calculating the average frequency at which a skill is offered in a category is simple; each hero has probabilities to be offered a skill in increments of 1/112. Taking [[Necromancy]] as a simple example, all heroes except for Necropolis heroes have a 0/112 chance of being offered it; while both Necropolis hero classes have a 10/112 chance of being offered it (if not starting with it). This would bring the sum of lots to 20. Given that there are 18 hero classes, 18 x 112 = 2016 lots in total calculation. Thus, we can divide 20 by 2016 to get the frequency the skill is offered among all hero classes, which is roughly 0.99%, making it the rarest naturally offered skill in the game.
