Greetings Traveler!
As we should all know, mana is related to the hero’s intelligence. To be precise, an increase in intelligence creates an increase in mana.
Conversely, one could conclude from this that a high mana is to be equated with an intelligent hero.
However, there are several possibilities of this type of relationship.
E.g. one could compare the exercise of the skills with one another.
Take for example Skills that regenerate mana or drain mana.
Skills with such a possibility are very strong, because they allow more or less skills to be used and thus e.g. to do more or less harm. There are not many such skills in WC3 which is why I am listing them for you in a racial hierarchy:
Undead
Lichking - Dark Ritual
Sacrifices a target friendly unit to convert its hit points into mana for the Lich.
Destroyer - Devour Magic
Consumes all positive and negative buffs from all units in an area. Each unit that is devoured of magic gives back the Destroyer 50 hit points and 75 mana. Deals 180 damage to summoned units.
Destroyer - Absorb Mana
Takes all mana from one of your units and gives it to the Destroyer.
Obsidian Statue - Spirit Touch
Restores 3 mana to nearby friendly units.
Night Elves
Moon Well - Replenish Mana and Life
Moon Wells provide food for the Night Elves, but can also replenish mana and health to friendly units. Mana in a Moon Well is regenerated during nighttime.
Demon Hunter - Mana Burn
Sends a bolt of negative energy that burns a target enemy unit’s mana. Burned mana combusts, dealing damage to the target equal to the amount of mana burned.
Wisp - Detonate
Destroys the Wisp, dispelling all magical buffs and draining 50 mana from each unit in an area around the Wisp. Deals 225 damage to summoned units.
Human
Blood Mage - Siphon Mana
Transfers mana between the Blood Mage and a target. Drains mana from an enemy, or transfers mana to an ally. Siphon Mana can push the Blood Mage’s mana over its maximum value, though excess mana drains off rapidly if not used.
Archmage - Brilliance Aura
Gives additional mana regeneration to nearby friendly units.
Arcane Tower - Feedback
This tower’s attacks destroy 24 (12 to Heroes) mana per hit. The mana combusts, dealing damage to the attacked unit.
Orc
Tauren Chieftain - Reincarnation
When killed, the Tauren Chieftain will come back to life. The Tauren Chieftain will return with full mana.
With this comparison we can see that the races have different intelligence to one another. The number of skills and the skill strength thus result in a hierarchy, from the most intelligent race to the dumbest.
- Undead
- Night Elves
- Human
- Orc
Thank you very much for your attention and don’t let Darkness prank you on the phone.
Sincerely
