Archer Queen’s Equipment Upgrade Priority
The Archer Queen has several powerful equipment options available, which may leave you wondering which one to upgrade first.
Here is the right upgrade priority for Archer Queen’s equipment:
- Invisibility Vial
- Frozen Arrow
- Healer Puppet
- Archer Puppet
- Giant Arrow
According to this Reddit thread, the most common equipment combination used by the top 200 players is the Invisibility Vial and Frozen Arrow combo. A total of 146 out of 200 top players use this combination in their attack strategies.
Keep the levels almost the same
When upgrading the Archer Queen’s equipment, it’s best to keep the level of the top two highest priority equipment almost the same. While the Invisibility Vial is a common equipment, the Frozen Arrow is an epic equipment. The rarity of these two equipment types affects their level cap differently.
For example, at Town Hall 10, the Invisibility Vial can reach level 12, while the Frozen Arrow can reach level 15. Therefore, prioritize taking your Invisibility Vial to level 12 first, and then upgrade the Frozen Arrow to level 15.
For Queen Charge/Walk
Frozen Arrow is considered the best equipment for those who prefer Queen Charge attacks. However, some players opt for using Healer Puppet instead of Frozen Arrow in their Queen Charge strategies. Referring to the Reddit thread linked earlier, 26 out of 200 top players use the Healer Puppet and Invisibility Vial combination on their Archer Queen.
Healer Puppet provides a decent boost to the Archer Queen’s hitpoints, reaching an additional 968 hitpoints at max level. Additionally, it offers passive healing per second, which can reach 35 hitpoints per second at its maximum level. These benefits increase the Archer Queen’s durability during Queen Charge attacks.
On the other hand, Frozen Arrow focuses on increasing the Archer Queen’s damage output and slowing down her targets, reducing the damage she takes. This equipment can help Archer Queen take down single-target Inferno Towers without taking much damage. Moreover, Frozen Arrow excels in smash and spam attacks.
Both Healer Puppet and Frozen Arrow are viable equipment options for Queen Charge strategies, but Frozen Arrow is generally preferred for most attack strategies. Queen Charge, smash, and spam attacks all benefit from Frozen Arrow’s abilities.
However, Healer Puppet offers advantages such as requiring fewer upgrade levels, which can save Ores. It is the second-best option if you fail to unlock the Frozen Arrow.
