The Archer Queen is an eagle-eyed warrior, her weapon of choice being a modified X-Bow that few could dream of wielding. Her abilities are twofold: she snipes targets in her territory when defending, and can summon stealth and terrifying damage when attacking once her Royal Cloak ability is unlocked. The Archer Queen’s role in the game is pivotal. Her destructive force, though modest in health, can turn the tide of battles, making her a valuable asset for any player.
Understanding the Archer Queen Altar
The Archer Queen Altar is essentially a Barracks/Army Camp/Laboratory for the Archer Queen. When she isn’t engaged in battle, the Archer Queen can be seen pacing around her Altar or resting on top of it to regenerate health. The Altar also serves as a visual indicator of the Archer Queen’s targeting range when tapped. Understanding the function of the Altar and how the Archer Queen interacts with it is crucial for maximizing her potential in the game.
Building and Upgrading the Archer Queen Altar
Building the Archer Queen Altar requires a free Builder and 10,000 Dark Elixir. The process of upgrading the Altar involves increasing the Archer Queen’s level, which enhances her Damage per Second, Hitpoints, and Regeneration Time. Upgrading the Altar is a strategic move that can significantly boost a player’s defensive and offensive capabilities in the game.
Strategies for Using the Archer Queen and Her Altar
The Archer Queen, with her powerful abilities, can be a game-changer in battles. One effective strategy is to use her as a primary damage dealer, taking advantage of her high damage output. The Altar’s role in these strategies is equally important. It serves as the Archer Queen’s regeneration point, allowing her to recover health and return to battles more quickly.
Defensive Strategy
- A good place to put the Archer Queen Altar is beside your Town Hall, so if enemies approach the Town Hall, she will auto-target them.
- If farming (or just resource-hoarding) it is a good idea to put the Altar either in the middle of your storages or right next to them.
Offensive Strategy
- Lure her out with a single Troop until she is out of range of other defenses, then mass-deploy Troops to kill her.
