Silith Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 From what I've seen you can double on enemy phase too. Does that mean you can keep your archer behind your tanky frontline and abuse them to get easy double moves when counterattacking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arvilino Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 You can do that, but Dual attacks don't take into account the attack range of the unit using them so any other combat unit could do the same thing as well as Archers being able to dual attack from 1 range if they're the supporting unit in a doubled pair.

Lord Raven Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Also, a) you don't get much experience unless you're the primary unit b) the archer still has to have good supports with the units they're behind, cause at base you have a ~30% chance of activate a Dual Attack.

Silith Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 Thanks. That clears up alot for me. I still want to play this game with lots of archers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Sage Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Bow users don't seem broken, but Bow Knights are still pretty good. Snipers though just seem eh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Raven Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) Bow Knights have no durability, Snipers have at least defense. Bow Knights get you Bow slayer though, which is cool; someone like Sariya would like Accuracy +20.

DebonairDarkling Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 arycelle will put everything's eyes out talk about archers that are overpowered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silith Posted August 4, 2012 Author Share Posted August 4, 2012 Now I wonder. If an archer gets attacked at 1-range. Is there a chance that a doubled unit on that archer will counter attack? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVinceKnight Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Now I wonder. If an archer gets attacked at 1-range. Is there a chance that a doubled unit on that archer will counter attack? Nope, the doubled unit won't attack back. Doubled units only attack after the unit attacks, so no. Dual Guards still work I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Othin Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 (edited) Bow Knights give better double bonuses though. In Lunatic, the bonuses are about equal. In Lunatic+ as far as I can see, Snipers are just plain better overall. Bow Knights really don't have anything that could compare to Longbows.
