|
| Once a woodland huntress who captured the hearts of countless men, the Forsaken Archer was taken against her will and slain by a spurned suitor. As she lay dying she forged a terrible pact with the daemons who discovered her broken body. Now, rather than hearts it is souls she captures, wielding them as weapons. Atop the skeletal remains of a beast she once hunted, the forsaken archer rains terror upon any who stand in her path.

 Wingbow will increase the split attack range to 700 range.

| Call of the Damned (Pre-3.7.10) [ E ]
|
|
|
| With the cursed powers bestowed on her by the Hellbourne, the Forsaken Archer is able to bring the soulless bodies of her victims back from the dead to fight by her side as skeletal warriors.
|
Cooldown: 1 second
|
| Switches Call of the Damned to store Skeletons to be summoned later (when un-toggled), rather than spawning them instantly.
Toggling this ability will kill any active skeletons.
On Kill
Creates a Skeleton that assist the Forsaken Archer for 20 seconds. Skeletons follow the same orders as you do, moving alongside you and attacking your attack target you are attacking. Does not attack Towers.
Skeletons deal 17/23/29/35 Physical Damage on attack and have 20 Health. Skeletons must be attacked manually. You may have up to 3/4/5/6 Skeletons up at a time.
|

|
|
|
|
| Notes
|
- Skeletons copy Forsaken Archer's behavior, moving with Forsaken Archer, attacking only the unit she attacks, and holding their ground if Forsaken Archer is holding position.
- Skeletons are considered Gadgets, therefore they will not draw aggro from NPC enemies and can only be attacked manually by other players.
- Skeletons will not attack targets outside of Forsaken Archer's attack range.
- Skeletons will always finish their attack animation before following Forsaken Archer, even if she cancels her own attack animation.
- Skeletons will teleport with Forsaken Archer after using
 Homecoming Stone.
- With the maximum number of Skeletons, this ability effectively add 51/92/145/210 extra Physical damage to Forsaken Archer's attacks.
