Useful Info

Naga sharpshooters are infuriating back-line attackers which pelt you with smite-targeted arrows and bolts from the back lines. They are occasionally encountered as part of a group of other nagas, or as part of Vashnia's sniper band, and can be encountered in the Snake Pit.

Tips & Tricks

  • Don't treat them like you would centaurs or other marksmen; these unnatural archers can shoot you no matter how many units stand between them and their target. If you have multiple sharpshooters in your line of sight, strongly consider repositioning. Judicious use of corners can help tremendously.
