So this balista bois heckin on your bois. Whatcha do?

Step 1: Make sure your shield bois are up front in first target range of these heckers, preferbaly lvl 3 shields because they are much stronger.

Step 2: Move all your other bois behind/out of the way of these balista guys, DO NOT try to out beat them with range, they have FULL range over the whole map no matter where they are.

Step 3: Get them dead ASAP. The longer they live the more shots they can let out. You want to have your shield rushing these guys 24/7. Their arrows are unstoppable. Do not hold out on rushing them.

Tip 1: Never dear god retreat with one of these shooting at your boat. I have lost multiple commanders to this with only 1 balista boi sniping at me. Like HECK.

Tip 2: If you can hide the rest of your guys up high, or behind something (houses work well), place your shields behind an obstacle, ready to rush these guys when they land, thankfully these balista bois cant shoot through houses, and there is usually one up close to hide behind.

These are possibly the hardest guys in the game.

heck.
