The primitive races (Orcs, Barbarians and Minotaurs) have access to Training that offers +10 XP to all produced units. Once researched, certain powerups will offer additional XP to newly produced units regardless of whether your Hero is still present. Dragonmaster: +3 XP for Dragons, 'Dinosaurs' ( Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus Rex, and Pterodactyl) and 'Hydras' ( Hydra, Pyrohydra and Cryohydra).Golem master: +2 XP for Stone, Iron and Bronze Golems.Brewmaster: +2 XP for all Dwarven units.Gate: +2 XP for any unit summoned in to play.

Mage King: +2 XP for White, Red and Black Mages.Knight Protector: +2 XP for Knights, Knight Champions and Knight Lords.Undead Legion: +3 XP for Skeleton Cavalry.Guardian Oak: +2 XP for Treants and Ancient Treants.All-Seeing-Eye: +2 XP for Gazers, Spores and Eyes of Flame.Below are a list of those skills and the amount of XP they offer per point invested and for what units. Again, these are only in place while your Hero is still alive/present in battle. There are a few race-specific skills a Hero can have that offer additional XP to certain produced units, in addition to that acquired from a Hero's intelligence characteristic. If your Hero is slain or just never turned up, then your Hero's intelligence has no affect on produced units (intelligence is treated as being 0). All produced units gain +1 XP for every 2 points invested in your Hero's intelligence but only if you Hero is still present in the current battle. Produced units don't always start with 0 XP, instead their XP amount is dependent on your Hero's intelligence characteristic. Starting Experience XP from a Hero's Intelligence (Tinmen Heroes gain +25% XP and Bronzemen gain +50% XP but these Hero modes are disabled in Warlords Battlecry 3, but revived in some mods.) Typically it means they'll gain 2 XP when they (or a unit from their side) makes a kill and 6 XP from destroying a building. Heroes that have dared to tread the path of an Ironman double the XP they acquire from all forms of XP gains.

If your Hero was slain during the battle, the amount of this rewarded XP is reduced by 25%. Upon completing a scenario (whether you won / lost or was defeated before it was over), your Hero will gain XP based on his performance. This should amount to 50 XP on top of the normal XP gain. The other research is Knight's Quest that offers a bonus amount of XP to whatever mounted knight unit slays a nominated enemy unit type. Once all 5 of the Crusade skills have been obtained, any unit of theirs will gain 6 XP instead of just 1 XP whenever it makes a kill. Each time a Crusade skill is researched, all owned units for that side will gain an additional +1 XP for every unit they kill. Crusade is the more prominent one, and a 5 piece research set. The Knight race have 2 types of researches that offer additional XP to their units as they kill opposing units. Due to the amount of XP a Hero usually has (more than 1500), a unit that leeches XP from a Hero usually ends up reaching their maximum level (20). This applies to Heroes both ways (when under the effects of Mind Leech and also when being leeched). When Wraiths and Shadows, as well as units under the Mind Leech spell, kill an enemy unit, the XP amount gained will be equal to the amount of XP the slain unit had. Typically, it costs around 20 Crowns per 10 point of XP, but the Moon King of Lunarion being the cheapest at just 18 Crowns per 10 point. There are also a few special areas in the campaign where you can purchase XP for your Hero at the cost of Crowns (currency used only in the campaign). However, the Knight race have access to the Order of the Grail research that, once researched, doubles the amount of XP gained from quests (40 XP).Ĭompleting certain missions in the campaign will award bonus XP (usually in the hundreds), in addition to any other XP you would normal gain. Up on completing a quest, your Hero will receive 20 XP. The Reaper, the Daemon Infantry, has the unique capacity to devour the souls generated by Succubi, for a nice +20 XP per soul devoured. Once more, the Hero will also gain this.Īny unit (and the Hero who owns the unit) that slays an enemy Hero will be rewarded bonus XP equal to the fallen Hero's level in addition to the usual +1 XP for killing a unit. However, if a unit destroys a building that deals damage (such as a tower) then the unit will gain 4 XP. Again, the Hero who owns the attacking unit will also gain that XP. A unit that destroys a building will gain 3 XP. For that purpose, a Titan is considered a normal unit.

In addition to that, the Hero who owns the unit that acquired the XP will also gain that XP, too. Obtaining Experience Standard XP gains Įach time a unit kills another unit, they'll gain 1 point of Experience (XP).
