Characteristics
Artemis is a powerful ranged unit that fires several arrows from their bow at a time. Occasionally they will charge their attack for a moment and fire a large knock-back arrow, which sends all units in a line in front of them flying.
Appearance
Artemis is a Unit sporting a Greek light dress and a quiver. Unlike its mythological counterpart, they fire a cluster of five arrows from its bow at once.
Unit Voice
Usage
Artemis is one of the most powerful Units in TABS. Thanks to Artemis' super fast attack rate and high damage, they can take on almost any other Unit with ease. Each arrow seems to do half the damage as a normal Archer arrow, though usually compensated for through the quantity of arrows shot. Every once in a while, she will summon a leaf-like vortex that inflicts knockback and some damage for a few seconds. Another thing to note is that while shields can block most of its arrows, they can cause enough knock-back to hit the shield away and expose the Unit behind it long enough for their next volley to kill the Unit. Nonetheless, considering that TABS Units aren't the best at multitasking, it is possible to overwhelm Artemis with enough shield units. The thing to consider though is how many shields you can afford.
