Now flames, the blazing fire, must devour the lord of warriors who often endured the iron tipped arrow shower, when the dark cloud loosed by bow strings broke above the shield wall, quivering; when the eager shaft, with its feather garb, discharged its duty to the barb. --Beowulf
The archer is a skilled warrior in ranged combat, using a bow to rain death from afar. He initially carries 10 arrows with him, but he has the ability to make his own arrows out of trees amidst combat.
- [Left click] - Aim, click and hold, release to shoot
- [Right click] - Make arrows from trees, pick up arrows from the ground, destroy dirt blocks
Gameplay tips:
- Switch classes at the tent to quickly regain 10 arrows.
- Archers can only destroy dirt blocks, making them ill suited for leading raids.
- Archers cannot damage themselves or teammates with arrows.
- Archers are slower and can’t jump with a fully drawn bow.
- The faster an arrow flies the more damage it inflicts.
