Default Re: Supercombattant pretenders....what about...

You can use crossbows to take out SC's. Just give them order fire large monsters. In larger Groups with aim spell they can be deadly for them even in early stages.

But there are some items that really shine against them.


Piercer (crossbow):

Damage: 12 (armor negating)
Precision: 10
Attacks: 1 per 2 rounds
Range: 35
Ammo: 12
Costs: 5 earth and 5 air gems
2nd construction level and earth 1+air 1 mage.

You can get this one in demo. Just give it to some cheap nature mage (druid or cheaper will do), give him order to cast eagle eyes and fire large monsters.


Ethereal Crossbow I call this SC killer.

Damage: 999 (armor negating) - whatever it hits, it kills.
Precision: 5
Attacks: 1 per 2 rounds
Range: 35
Ammo: 12
Costs 5 astral gems!!!!!!!!!
Requires astral level 1 mage and level 6 in construction.

This thing is even cheaper to build then Piercer and is just plain deadly.
Method to use is similar to Piercer, but the effect is much better. You can also build eye that increases precision and give it to your commander for increased hit ratio.

Air shield gives 80% protection against missiles so its possible to hit SC even with air shield on. You just need to field a group of those sniper-commanders.
