How to be an archer
This is a tutorial on how to be a good archer. From Techniques to tactics. Strategy to TeamWork.
Basic Archer Info.
As an archer, headshots do alot more damage with any kind of arrow. A fireshot headshot is a one hit kill on all except a warrior. Poison, no aim him do whatever with the almost dead warrior. It also knocks people down. Poisons blur the screen a bit, slow you down, and takes your health down. If your a Lurtz it knocks you down. A spread shot shoots 3 or as Legolas 5 arrows. All archers can kick, use it to knock them back down, Legolas has three melees, an uppercut with his fist, Jump kick, and a spinning kick.
Tactics
Get up Spread Shot
An archer can have many tactics, lemme start with a commonly used one. [Fire Arrow] For knocking down. [Poison Arrow] To slow them down. Then come up close to them but enough distance from them incase they use a get up attack. Once up wait about 1 second and then multi-arrow. If they are close enough all of the arrows will go in their head if done right. If all arrows still hit the target and miss the head it still kills unless its a warrior who has higher health.
Long Range
First when in scope in a 1v1 about across the map, MAKE SURE YOUR MOVING. Move your analog while your moving keep moving it to match your movement and shoot. Make sure your aim is quick, Use your Poison Arrow, if you want aim for their body so they are just slowed down, then use fire Arrow in the head or body. If its the body wait for them to get up, wait a second and then shoot it in the head. Dead. Well dead if you had done the fire arrow body shot correctly.
All Specials
Alright, this is a tactic to beat people using all specials and then waiting for them to charge. They must be close range when you do this. Fire arrow them no scope, then poison arrow their body. Then multi arrow the body. Wait for them to get up and kick them. If non of your arrows are back then wait for them and kick them again. It should be back, finish them with your special arrows if they dont die continue this stactice.
Strategies
You could mistake a strategy for a tactic, then i would laugh at you, no offence. Strategies are higher thinking then tactics.
Hide come out, and Hide.
Hide, come out, and hide. This is what i mean, Get under cover by a rock, be in scope mode and know where your target is, use your radar if neccecassry(sp). Get out of cover for a few seconds and shoot your specials or some normal arrows. Then get back in. Go and out so that its more difficult for them to kill you.
More to come
Team Work
Teamwork, my area most specialized area, you can team with mages, or warriors for an effective team. Mages block any firewalls, satchel bombs, axes, arrows, lightning, etc. You dont exactly need to be in the shield though, you can stand behind it but make sure your behind it or your gonna get killed! The mages also would be good for making the other team drop their shield. Once dropped, shoot away!
When teaming with a warrior, your gonna have to have a skilled warrior partner. You will have to hide under cover our have a long aim towards the enemy. The warrior can use the warrior block and other warrior tactics to avoid the shots blasts etc to get to the enemy. Once over there if they are a mage they will drop their shield to do ground pound, which could be countered with a block. The shield is down...SHOOT! Once they are fighting them they will get pinned down if the opponent is in a standing combo. Shoot away!
This is all i got for now, thanks for reading.
