I had a situation like this arise that confused me. I was playing Ermor-Soul Gate and while looking through the heroes that had appeared in my provinces found this one: A long dead horseman (commander) with 4 air, 2 water, 4 astral, 3 nature and 5 holy. Other than those the stats were normal.

Maybe to cut down on spell-casting fatigue?

So on the happy occasions when someone gets one of these buggy units, do they go ahead and use them for all that they're worth, or what?

I considered that possibility, but ruled it out, because his water magic didn't increase as well: If he gained a +2 astral not from empowerment, but from the bug, and then kept his +2 from items, why did he not get a permanent +1 from the bracelet? Why did he only have his base water-3, +1 for a water bracelet? It's not consistent.

Well, the nation that presumably Last possessed him, Abysia, was AI-controlled at the time. Who knows what goes through the mind of the AI?
