Tips & Tricks

• As they have Repel Missiles, fighting them in a ranged duel is less effective than usual (but not impossible). Ways to lower their EV, such as BVC or a wand of roots, are effective if you try to do so.
• Their hexes aren't as dangerous as the likes of orc sorcerers or deep elf high priests, but if you don't have good willpower, you should keep them in mind.

History

• Prior to 0.32, deep elf archers had Blink Away instead of Blink Range.
• Deep elf archers were introduced in 0.18.
