Kill the Archbishop Recommended Strategies and Tips
Attack Isolated Enemies
While there are several enemies on the map when you start the mission, the majority will be patrolling the area individually. Attack enemies when they're not in range of their allies so that you can focus all your attacks on a single foe.
Focus Attacks on Healers
There will be several enemies with healing abilities in this mission. They will cast a small circle where enemies inside regain health over time. Once you see them cast this, focus your attacks on them to stop the healing ability immediately. This prolongs battles if you just ignore them.
How to Beat Joshua
| Tips for Beating Joshua |
|---|
 Take Out Joshua's Soldiers First |
| Joshua has Low Defensive Capabilities |
| Surround Joshua With Your Units |
Take Out Joshua's Soldiers First
Joshua's soldiers are dangerous when they cast their abilities successively. You'll have a difficult time constantly evading attacks if you ignore them so focus on clearing them out first.
Joshua has Low Defensive Capabilities
Joshua is defensively limited due to his lack of large AoE abilities and low health for a boss. You can just let him focus on your tankiest unit while the rest of your team ambushes him from behind.
Surround Joshua With Your Units
While Joshua has spells, they're fairly short in range, you can position your units around him to ensure that he'll have a difficult time dealing damage to your whole team.
