Quick Shot
Faster with every hit, slower with every miss
Ranged fighter
The Deadeye
Quick feet and a quicker bow. Keep moving, keep shooting, and take the fight apart from range.
How the Deadeye plays
Deadeyes learned to hunt in the dark woods, where whatever you miss comes back for you. They never stand still, and they rarely miss twice. If you can see it, a Deadeye has already put two arrows in it.
- Quick on their feet, with the fastest shots
- Hits from farther away than anyone
- Traps and a rain of arrows for crowds
Watch out: Fragile when skeletons get close.
In The Long Night their left clicks build Focus as their blows land, and their right clicks spend it.
Abilities
The Deadeye's moves in The Long Night: you pick a left click, a right click, an ability and an Ultimate as a run goes on, and make each stronger. Their left clicks are the same in the campaign.
Left clicks
Chains
Eight arrows chaining foe after foe, then a back flip
Knife Toss
Six knives, then a spike trap where you aim
Right clicks
Power Shot
A heavy arrow through every foe in a line
Blast Arrow
An arrow that sticks, then bursts
Rapid Fire
A stream of arrows where you aim
Abilities
Burning Effigy
Set a straw man where you aim. The foes round it go for it, and when it falls or its time is up it bursts into flame.
Parting Gift
Drop a lit bomb at your feet and grapple away where you aim, up to 9 paces, through any foe in your way. 1 second later it bursts, hitting every foe within 3.5 paces hard and staggering them.
Powder Trail
For 4 seconds you run 30% faster and lay a trail of black powder wherever you go. Press it again to light it, or it lights when the time runs out: the fire runs along your path from where you began, bursting on the foes beside it.
Net
Throw a net where you aim, across the throw, for 6 seconds: foes cannot pass it, only push it on at half their pace, and the crowd behind them is held up too. It does no damage.
Ultimates
Dance of Arrows
Dance for 8 seconds: you loose 30 arrows a second on your own while a foe is near, half at the foes near you, those nearest your aim first, and half out all round you, each of those on through 2 foes. You move 50% faster and can't use your primary or right clicks. Your dodge is ready every 0.5 seconds, and each dodge looses a fan of 5 arrows the way you roll, each on through 2 foes.
Minefield
Scatter eight traps around you at once, half of them snares. They are ready the moment they land.
Venom Burst
Every foe within 8 paces takes two poison stacks, then all the poison on them bursts at once, three quarters of what it had left to deal, and you vanish in smoke for 2 seconds.
