The Bowmaster is a promotion of the Archer. Like the Archer, her passive is Puncture.

Birdofprey icon

Active Ability: Bird of Prey

The Bowmaster uses her longbow to shoot further than other less experience archers, and she always hits her mark.

Bird of Prey makes it possible for her to strike units before they are able to get in attack range and allows her passive, Puncture, to be used against more enemies who may have been out of range from a normal shot.

Rank 1: attack at +2 range, 100% chance to hit

Rank 2: attack at +3 range, 100% chance to hit

Rank 3: attack at +4 range, 100% chance to hit

Puncture icon

Passive Ability: Puncture

By standing still, the archer is able to line up a shot that takes advantage of an enemies missing armor, doing bonus damage.

For every 2 points of armor her target has lost, the Archer gains 1 additional strength to her attack, as long as she didn't move beforehand. This makes her especially deadly near the end of a fight, or against tough opponents who have lost a lot of armor.

Lore

A woman named Mjoll once suffered shame and poverty at her husband's death. Desperate, she sought out an old Mender who claimed to have all the things necessary to change her fortune, save but the "head of one who has seen the world". Six years later Mjoll returned, an arrow through the eye of a legendary hawk she had shot out of the clouds with her husband's bow. Sure enough she found fame and her fortune changed.
