The Archer is a mystical humanoid summoned by the Relic at Level 3. They are the only ranged unit for the Relic, and can shoot armor piercing arrows, as well as detecting stealthed enemies. Similarly to the Scout 4, they are a great value unit for their cost, but fall off later in the game as their power becomes irrelevant.
Appearance[]
The Archer is an undead humanoid with decaying skin and wears a mask with the mark of the Relic. It wears black robes with olive accents covering most of its body, tattered brown pants, and black shoes. It also has several green glowing crystals around its robes and green glowing antlers on its hood. It wields a recurve olive and black bow with arrows that also bears green crystals.
Strategies[]
The Archer is a versatile and cost efficient early game option and should be used similarly to the Scout 4.
In comparison to the Scout 4, the Archer has lower DPS, but higher health (+145 total), lower cost (~$2,000 less) and armor piercing.
The Archer has both armor penetration and stealth detection, making them useful against armored stealth enemies like the Revived Titan in Expert Mode.
Trivia[]
The Archer uses the same Reload and fire sound effects as the Huntsman weapon from Team Fortress 2, one of the weapons the Sniper class can use.
