"Bulls-eye!"
The Sharpshooter Tower is a Level 3 Ranged Tower. It is upgraded from the Marksmen Tower.
Description
Once Archers reach the Sharpshooter level, their attack range and damage potential increases above any other.
With even further range, faster attack speed, and higher maximum damage than Marksmen, Sharpshooter towers are extremely effective at shredding waves of unarmored units.
All archer towers can attack both air and ground units.

Tactics
- As with all archers, Sharpshooters do well against non-armored units, such as Goblins, Desert Thugs, and Wolves. However, they share the same ineffectiveness against armored foes, such as Brigands, andDune Raiders.
- While not a particularly special upgrade, it is perfectly acceptable to leave a Sharpshooter tower on the field while you save up to upgrade to an advanced tower.
