"Bulls-eye!"
The Sharpshooter Tower is a Level 3 Ranged Tower. It is upgraded from the Marksmen Tower. The tower is the same in both Kingdom Rush and Kingdom Rush: Frontiers, with only a change in appearance.
Description
Once Archers reach the Sharpshooter level, their attack range and damage potential increases above any other.
With even further range, faster attack speed, and higher maximum damage than Marksmen, Sharpshooter towers are extremely effective at shredding waves of unarmored units.
All archer towers can attack both air and ground units.
Range
(KR) Marksman to Sharpshooter
(KR) Standard range without Upgrades
(KRF) Marksman to Sharpshooter
(KRF) Standard range without Upgrades
- 28% wider than the Level 1 Archer Tower
- 12% wider than the Level 2 Marksmen Tower
Strategy
- As with all archers, Sharpshooters do well against non-armored units, such as Goblins,Desert Thugs, and Wolves. However, they share the same ineffectiveness against armored foes, such as Brigands, and Dune Raiders.
- While not a particularly special upgrade, it is perfectly acceptable to leave a Sharpshooter tower on the field while you save up to upgrade to an advanced tower.
