Skills and AbilitiesEdit
- Quick Shot
- A basic ranged attack that does minor physical damage.
- Poisoned Arrow
- A basic ranged attack which poisons the target and causes poison damage over time.
- Snipe
- An interruptible ranged attack which fires multiple arrows at once the target.
- Roll Dodge
- The enemy can roll dodge to avoid attacks.
- Arrow Spray
- The enemy shoots a spray of poison arrows in the direction it is facing as indicated by a red cone. This attack does moderate poison damage as well as snares all enemies hit. This attack can be interrupted to set the enemy off balance or simply avoided. Blocking also prevents the snare and reduces the damage.
- Arrow Stab
- A basic melee attack that does minor physical damage where the Poison Archer grabs their arrow and stabs it into you rather than firing it. (On newer Poison Archers)
- Shadow Cloak (some)
- If the target is in close proximity to the enemy, they will turn themselves invisible and move to a better location and set the player off balance.
- Taking Aim (only on some)
- A powerful sniping bow attack that takes time to charge up and can one-shot those at low health. Can be interrupted or dodged.
