Archer strengths and weaknesses
Strengths
- Its single target damage is efficient against individual high hitpoint targets.
Weaknesses
- Its modest hitpoints leave it exposed to splash defences such as Wizard Towers, Mortars and Bomb Towers.
- Because it only hits one target at a time, it can be overwhelmed by large groups of defending troops.
