ARCHER TROUBLE





Hello friends!

How is your Bandit deck looking? You should spend some time on it. For this battle, you can only bring Bandit character cards. Nothing else!



[h3]ADJUTANT DIRK’S FIGHT[/h3]

Adjutant Dirk poses a unique challenge, as you’re limited to a deck you will not have used much yet. You’ll have just enough Bandit cards to fill out a deck, but you may not like them all! Make sure to win some of the other battles first; there are several that reward the cards you need for a normal win, as well as support cards that make your life a whole lot easier for completing the optional challenges.



Aside from being forced to use the Bandit deck, Adjutant Dirk’s battle has a couple more mechanics you’ll need to overcome. First off, archers are placed on either side of the battlefield that will shoot at random units, both yours and the enemy’s. As they’re not on the battlefield, you cannot take them out. They don’t do a lot of damage, but they completely ignore armor and get to shoot after every turn. The damage does start to stack up, so you don’t want to stand around too much. These archers get a +2 damage buff the first time you deal damage to the enemy commander, so make sure to take him out quickly after your initial hit!

If you want the Vile Blow support card that’s up for grabs, make sure to use four or more spell support cards before you off your foe!



[h3]CHALLENGER BATTLE[/h3]

If you managed to overcome the base challenge, there clearly weren’t enough archers! In the challenger battle, the enemy uses ranged units only. This may not sound difficult at first, but with the Archers’ ability to push back your units, this really slows down the battle and thus gives the archers on the outskirts more time to deal consistent damage! To add to this, when you damage the commander for the first time, the archers get the damage buff. Furthermore, all your units are pushed back as far as possible.



Two crates are placed on the foe’s side of the battlefield. Since this battlefield is only three spaces wide, this leaves two spaces for Adjutant Dirk to place archers behind and only one space for you to get close to the commander. Not only are his archers safe from melee characters, you are very limited in how much you can damage the commander each turn!

To add even further to your woes, the commander has a lot more health than in the base battle, and you have to finish the battle with 25 health remaining on your own commander! As the Bandit deck doesn’t get any healer or mage character cards, you’re very limited in the spells you can cast. The spells you do have access to cost health points to cast and you only have 10 health to lose. That’s only about two to three spells or one full heal from Milten the Monk!

To prepare for this battle, you have a couple of ways to go about it. To name two, you can try to outheal the damage the archers deal or maybe fill the battlefield with Bandits to overrun them. The choice is yours!

THE PUNISHER



[h3]Reminder: You can play the demo right now! Experience the opening chapters of the game and give us feedback![/h3]


Hello friends!

The best defense is a good offense, but in this case, you really need some defense.


[h3]MIRINA’S QUALIFICATION[/h3]

In one of Mirina’s Qualifications, you’ll face The Punisher; a powerful character with a whopping 85 health and 20 armor. He also has the ability to defeat your commander in just one hit! You’ll struggle to cut through him without stacking a lot of damage boosts on one character or breaking all his armor. But what if you don’t actually need to cut through him?



While he seems dangerous, he cannot move sideways. This means he’s easily blocked by another character. The Punisher also doesn’t do a whole lot of damage, and the opponent has no way of amplifying it. I wonder if there’s a way to completely negate his damage and outlast him forever?

While The Punisher is your main threat, the enemy has more than just him in his deck. You’ll have to deal with a handful of other characters who are hunting down your Commander. Dispose of them, keep The Punisher busy and end your foe!

Want to get your hands on a Field Equipment card that gives you two random support cards at the cost of some health? Make sure to use four or more item support cards during the battle and it’s all yours.



[h3]CHALLENGER BATTLE[/h3]

Haven’t had your fill of being punished? We won’t judge. In this extra difficult version of this fight, The Punisher is supported by the archers right behind him. You won’t be able to get to them without cutting through The Punisher himself. These archers are also unable to move between lanes, which makes them easy to block



In addition, the enemy will have a lot more cards available to use. He has some powerful combinations at his disposal that can quickly spiral out of control if you don’t deal with the threats ASAP.

As a final challenge, you won’t be allowed to use Shooter type characters. No Ranger, no Rogue, no Skovos!

BANDIT HORDE



[h3]Reminder: You can play the demo right now! Experience the opening chapters of the game and give us feedback![/h3]


Hello friends!

Need to blow off some steam? You’re in luck, as there’s an entire horde of bandits ready to be cut down!



[h3]ADJUTANT DOFUS’ FIGHT[/h3]

In this battle, you’ll have to face off against a whole bunch of bandits blocking the way to the enemy Commander. In fact, the majority of the battlefield has been occupied by bandits! You’ll have to create more breathing room for yourself to not get overwhelmed. You won’t have to worry about enemy reinforcements though, as the enemy Commander does not have any other card in his deck.



The Bandits start off with low stats; you can defeat one with a single hit from most of your units. However, some of the bandits in the group have the special ability to buff their fellow bandits upon their death; all remaining bandits will gain 2 attack and 2 health.

A lot of the usual strategies in other battles will work, but a strong frontline is really important here. As a bonus tip, treat yourself to a card with retaliation!



[h3]CHALLENGER BATTLE[/h3]

Once you’re finished with your qualification battles, you’ll be able to challenge an even bigger horde! In the Challenger Battle, there are more Murderers on the field; those bandits who buff their allies upon death.



Unlike the normal version of the fight, the enemy has additional cards to play. You’ll have to keep up with him summoning new bandits to not get overrun! The win condition for this battle requires you to have at least three of your warriors alive when you defeat the enemy commander. Your deck only has ten cards, so you’ll need to use your deck to the fullest to survive the onslaught!
