C.57 Shaman's icon and health bar
Shaman's health bar is close to her icon - the small white bar. Once it reaches the bottom, your shaman dies. Every single unit has a health bar, but only the shamans' is visible. When any unit is at less than 1/3 of health points, small white dots will circle that unit's head, meaning he is weak and potentially close to death.
It's important to keep an eye on your shaman's health everytime.
A shaman will die with 2 well placed direct blasts (casted really fast), or with 3 slow-casted blasts.
When shaman touches lava, her health points will drop really fast to 0 unless you save her by casting a spell. When shaman drowns in water, her health points will instantly drop and she dies. The same happens when an Angel of Death eats and spills her, or when hit with a good placed lightning spell. She also instantly dies if she touches a swamp.
Spell efects and units will damage the shaman, but take in mind that the shaman's health regeneration is very good - she regenerates very fast compared to other units.
The shaman's icon is on the left side bar, near the top. You can see the shaman there in a black background. Mouse right click in the icon will fastly move the camera to where your shaman in on the map - this can also be done by pressing " . ". Right clicking in the shaman's icon will select your shaman. When your shaman is moving, she will appear moving in the shaman's icon, in a black background - she also changes direction, depending to where your camera is facing, relative to the shaman.
When your shaman is fighting, she will appear as fighting in the shaman's icon, and the black background will be flashing red.
When your shaman is stopped, she also will be stopped in her icon, and depending on where you are facing with the game camera, the icon will change.
