How to use this creature in practice
Mobile attacks and screening across obstacles
Plan fast flying attacks along the whole breath line. With Phoenixes account for revival after destruction while protecting the initial stack strength.
Watch for: Firebirds lack Rebirth. Phoenix revival does not guarantee the same count in every fight, and breath can endanger allies.
Timing, specific abilities and the follow-up plan
Speed 21 affects reach and order. Before Wait compare who still acts this round and who opens the next; delaying does not create a free extra attack.
- Two hex attack breath: Breath strikes the main victim and the creature directly behind it. Check that second hex for an allied stack before attacking.
- Creature uses: The stack has 1 rebirth use(s) during the battle. More creatures do not automatically multiply the activation count.
Example for 10 creatures: 300–400 base damage for one ordinary hit before hero, defense, spell and ability modifiers. Recalculate surviving creatures before a subsequent hit.
What changes between base and upgraded forms
| Form | Attack / Defense | Damage | HP | Speed | Cost each |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Firebird | 18 / 18 | 30–40 | 150 | 15 | 1500 gold |
| Phoenix | 21 / 18 | 30–40 | 200 | 21 | 2000 gold + 1 mercury |
This compares recruitment prices and base parameters, rather than final damage or an automatic price for a particular map upgrade.

Abilities and limitations
Flying
Movement can cross obstacles. Devils and Arch Devils express this trait through teleportation; speed still determines reach.
Two hex attack breath
Breath strikes the main victim and the creature directly behind it. Check that second hex for an allied stack before attacking.
Creature uses
The stack has 1 rebirth use(s) during the battle. More creatures do not automatically multiply the activation count.
Rebirth
Once per battle, destruction can trigger revival. The SoD analysis gives one guaranteed return per five original Phoenixes plus a separate 20% trial for each remaining creature. Seven Phoenixes can therefore return three, not only one or two.
Fire-school immunity
Resists Fire-school effects. This does not automatically protect against other schools or every special attack.
Slayer target
An enemy attacker buffed with Slayer gains +8 Attack against this creature from Untrained / Basic mastery. The bonus belongs to the attacker; the target’s spell immunity does not itself cancel it.
