Fear spell is apparently a disabled feature of 埃拉西亚的光复 version 1.2. The spell could not appear in Mage Guild, but a hero could get a message after defeating the guards in a Pyramid, that he has learned Fear spell: - "Upon defeating the monsters, you decipher an ancient glyph on the wall, telling the secrets of the spell - 'Fear ( disabled )'." However, it also informs that the spell is disabled, and it will never appear in the spell book. The feature was removed in version 1.3.
Greg Fulton, one of lead designers of HoMM3, answered the question why the spell was cut from the game:
The Fear spell was ‘cut’ because it was little more than ‘bad morale’ in another form. Later, I thought it was better to convert the mechanic into the Fear ability for the Azure Dragon.
