 The Archer



Tips
* Buy Leather armor at the start to protect yourself against ranged attacks from afar and unexpected melee attacks. Later you can upgrade.

* You are one of the two characters with good long range accuracy, making you more suited for ranged fights than melee.

* Because arrows are a bit harder to see than knives or magical projectiles, you have a slight advantage when firing from a sniper position. It make take a while for the enemy to figure out where your shots are coming from.

* Your initial ranged weapon (the Bow) has an advantage over more expensive weapons in certain situations.  For instance, you may want to zoom in for more precise targeting from a sniping position, perfectly accomplished with your standard-issue Bow. Some of the other bows, while more powerful, don't have this capability.

* As the only character that starts with a zoomable weapon, you should take advantage of your Bow's capability. A well-placed shot to the legs will slow down an enemy; a shot to the arm will reduce an enemy's accuracy. However, beware that a zoomed-in view sacrifices peripheral vision.

* Your super-weapon is the Eye Bow, with a guidable projectile that provides a traveling camera and detonates upon impact. It can be used to attack, or as a scouting device.

*The Archer is one of two characters in the game that had a different clothing skin in the demo. The above picture skin is from the demo and was a lot darker.
