Suggestions include

  • Ranged opposition
  • Fast-moving, dodge happy close combat opponents who can quickly close the range and keep the archer threatened at a range where his bow is ineffective. Charms like Hopping Firecracker are brilliant for this, as they not only protect you but also help to close the distance quite quickly.
  • The trick with an archer is that long-range combat isn't always possible. Have battles in different locations, suchas in tight city streets or even within various buildings.
  • A wide variety of charms and spells exist which allow particular protection against ranged weapons.
  • Also, make sure your NPCs always 'stunt' behind cover when they come under attack - it's something you always see in movies which can add to the survivability of mooks by a large margin.
