The Archer, previously known as the Hunter, is an exclusive piercing tower that is given to a select group of players. It has a placement cost of $650.

Overview

The Archer, hence the name, carries and bow and fires arrows at enemies every 3 seconds. At level 1, each arrow shot by the Archer deals 2 damage and pierces through a maximum of three enemies, dealing approxiately 0.67 damage per second per target. Since its arrows are slow projectiles flying in a straight line, the Archer can often times miss its shot when its intended target is not moving at the direction at where the arrow points.

Starting from level 4, the Archer's arrows can set enemies on fire for a limited duration of time. At level 5, however, the Archer will lose a portion of its range and have a slower firerate in exchange for slightly higher damage and pierce.
