Tasty Baddies for Archers

I love my Archer, and so I've decided to make an MA Mish for Archers. I'm trying to think of the perfect types of enemies that would be fun to make "arrowed"

What types of baddies are fun for you to tackle as archers? Do you prefer melee or ranged type attackers?


Triumph Lurker: mintmiki 50 emp/archer
basically, if you see a miki on Triumph, it's probably cute and it's probably me.

Huge thanks to cuppamanga and all the folks in the mac help forum for prolonging my borrowed time on this game.

As long as you stay away from Rikti Drones you should be fine.

Seriously, i tried solo'ing a Rikti mission and they just wouldn't let me hit them with my arrows. >_

Rikti Drones are weak to AoEs. RoA, Fistfull, and Explosive let you pop them like pop corn.

If you want easy anything melee/regen, melee/wp will do just fine. Just try to stay away from giving plus perception powers they can wreck your day.

If you want hard, Invuln/Stone offer annoying smash lethal right out of the box. SR has those enhanced perception powers that are just a pain.

I like things that explode. Rain of Arrows makes Rikti Drones explode nicely.

Carnies are always a treat for an archer; having a target actually take EXTRA damage from lethal attacks is a rare novelty. If you were thinking of custom enemies, then the sky's the limit (though I must admit the Trogdor story sounds delightfully silly).


Rule number six of an empathy defender is NEVER underestimate a blaster's ability to die. I don't care if he has CM, Fort, both RAs, bubbles (both FF and Sonic), and is fighting next to a Storm defender with hurricane on. If there is a way to die in that situation, the blaster will find it.
