Description

The Cannoneer Elf is the one of the units that spawns from the Elf Camp. It spawns when the Elf Camp is at Level 2, replacing the Snowball Elf. As with other units, it starts from the end of the map path and moves towards the entrance of the map. It has a spawnrate of 25 seconds.

Whenever there are enemies in its range, the Cannoneer Elf will stop moving and attack enemies with its snowball cannon. As the snowballs fired by it are a projectile, they may not hit the intended target but a different enemy instead or miss an enemy entirely. It will continue walking when there are no enemies left in its range.

The Cannoneer Elf is replaced by the Gunner Elf for Level 3-4 of the Elf Camp.

There's a limit of 4 Cannoneer Elves per Elf Camp.

Appearance

The Cannoneer Elf has dark skin and brown hair. It wears a green shirt with a brown belt and red details, green and red hat with golden stars, dark green pants and brown shoes. It wields a snowball cannon that it attacks enemies with.

Strategy

• The Cannoneer Elves that spawn can be quite useful during the mid-game because of their high range and DPS.
• On two-pathed maps, only one Cannoneer Elves will spawn per Level 4 Elf Camp. It will go down a random path.
  • The snowballs fired by the Cannoneer Elf can also sometimes hit a flying enemy, however, this also should not be relied on.
• The Cannoneer Elf cannot collide with Ghost enemies like Souls.
• The Cannoneer Elf can deal full collision damage to enemies with defense, like the Heavy or Elite Abnormal.
  • Its gun damage is still affected by defense.
• The Cannoneer Elf is not affected by any buff or debuff.
• The Cannoneer Elf will struggle against any enemy with abilities that damage units because of its low health.
  • For example, if the Fallen King uses its The Foil, the Épée and the Sabre attack, and an Cannoneer Elf is caught in the attack, it is instantly defeated.
