Apparently so. Someone suggested that was the actual behavior of the ability vs. what it stated, and I noted as such in the bugs thread. So I guess the devs updated the description themselves!

Also, for anybody reading - what does Stun do? My lava golem stuns mobs of less than level 5 and I see the stun graphic. However, the unit he just stunned hits him back and then also attacks him on its turn. So... what does stun do again? His ability doesn't say what it does, just that it happens.

Stun reduces initiative and prevents you from using special abilities. It's sorta buggy though in that if they have already gone this turn the initiative penalty effect doesn't seem to stick around to the next turn (Unlike most effects which expire after the unit takes its turn).

Thanks. I eventually figured out stun -- do you mind adding what it does to the golem's stun ability description?

Also, I finally upgraded my Archmage's staff and the level 3 version says it's gives you +5% stamina spells and 15% stamina by lightning. What does that mean? Maybe another one that needs an update when you get to it in the language mod. I'm guessing - and it's a longshot - it means 5% more "damage" to your spells and to lightning?

@torquemada sorry to hear that, you will have to get the fix (once he updates it) if you can't use the patched game. No crashes with ice dragons here and I'm using patch 2.

Has to be that, because thats what the staff did in previous games.
Speaking of weird item descriptions, some shields state they increase damage done by shields or something. Anyone know what that means?

Yeah, I had that question, too. We settled on it meaning that units that attack with shields do more damage - like viking shield bash and how the berserker has a counterattack using a shield. Pretty limited scope.

@ckdamascus Edit: Oops I misunderstood your question. You mean does your amulet stop leveling up at rage level 60. Honestly, I didn't even know you could see what level you had. Does it show it to you anywhere? And what is max character level, I think I heard 70? I wonder why the discrepancy... do they run out of upgrades? Did you get them all on your way to 60?

Sorry if it's already in the thread -

The spell Power of Light III should give whole army bonus to fight against evil units. However, it can only be cast on single target and it does not give ANY bonus at all. Did not try Power of the Night spell yet.

the quest given by a painter on the islands (to defeat three boats) doesn't update. I defeated the three and his response is the same

"Fight the first ship"-should i have fought them with a specific order??
