How to Beat Horde Mode: Archer Captain

Defeat the Archer Captain in Mordhau's Horde Mode by quickly closing the distance. Learn to block projectiles and overwhelm this ranged threat in melee.

The Archer Captain in Horde Mode is a high-priority target due to its ranged damage and ability to pick off teammates. They typically wear light armor but deal significant damage with their bows or crossbows. Weaknesses: Low melee defense. They are easily overwhelmed in close quarters. Strategy: Close the distance quickly. Use shields to block their projectiles while advancing. Once in melee range, they are relatively easy to dispatch. Be wary of their attempts to switch to a secondary melee weapon. If you are a ranged player, prioritize them from afar before they can do too much damage to your team. Communication is key to identifying and eliminating them before they become a nuisance.
