Skystriker

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

Rainofarrows icon

Ability: Rain of Arrows

The Skystriker secretly selects an unoccupied tile on the board and fires an arrow in the air. If any enemy passes through the selected tile they are hit by the falling arrow, doing normal strength damage and stopping them in their tracks, ending their turn.

Rain of Arrows can be used offensively, defensively to protect allies and in general is most effective when forcing an opponent to second-guess his or her actions. Smart use of the ability can potentially lock down an entire team.

Rank 1: fires 1 arrow

Rank 2: fires 2 arrows, + 1 strength to the 2nd

Rank 3: fires 3 arrows, + 2 strength to the 3rd

Puncture icon

Passive: 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.
