In “Evony: The King’s Return,” the Archer Tower serves as a crucial defensive structure. This guide will help you understand the Archer Tower’s role and how to maximize its effectiveness in defending your city.
Understanding the Archer Tower’s Functionality
- Role in Defense: The Archer Tower, akin to traps, is designed to bolster your city’s defenses. While it might not always seem impactful, a well-maintained Archer Tower can contribute significantly to repelling attackers.
- Debuffs and Buffs: The Archer Tower doesn’t inherently come with ranged buffs. However, it can apply debuffs to attacking forces, which can be a game-changer during sieges, especially if you have abundant resources.
Optimizing Archer Tower Performance
- Specialty Applications: Not all specialties apply to the Archer Tower. It’s commonly agreed that the third specialty is specifically tailored for the Archer Tower officer.
- Attack Power Enhancement: A notable point of discussion is the potential for the Archer Tower to receive a 100% attack boost under certain circumstances. This boost hinges on the assignment of the right duty officer and their specialties.
Duty Officers
- Choosing the Right Officer: Selecting an officer with the right specialties is key. Some specialties are only activated when the officer is on duty at the Archer Tower.
- Case in Point – Ban Chao: For example, if Ban Chao’s fourth specialty states “Archer Tower attack +100%,” it is crucial to determine if this applies only when he is assigned as the Archer Tower officer.
