Questions about archer thralls

[Natohk]

1. Does the archer post actually provide a defined buff, or does an archer do better on it just because they aren’t wandering?

2. When a strength thrall is using an agility weapon, their only significant damage comes from the weapon itself?

3. When an strength based thrall, using a strength bow, fires an agility arrow, does all that strength go to waste because the only weapon making contact is agility based?

I’ve had various purges using both strength and agility based archers, when I remove one type to test the other, agility is the clear winner. It seems to have much better aim, range, and impact. I’d like to put some reason and facts behind that observation.

Thank you!

1. It just locks them in place.

2. If a weapon is an agility weapon, it receives the thrall’s listed Max Agility Damage Bonus stat, then it receives 10% of the listed Max Strength Damage Bonus (this is how most weapons work anyway, the agility/strength multipliers are features of the weapon itself, not the user).

3. Arrows add the damage of the bow and thrall’s bonuses to their final damage. I am not sure what the multipliers on arrows are, I had not noticed they were actually classified as agility based before. I’d assume they still use 10% of the strength bonus. According to Xevyr, arrows inherit the damage type from the bow, so them being agility based is irrelevant.
