The Archer Queen has four types of hero equipment in Clash of Clans. But she can only carry two at a time, so picking the best ones to upgrade and use is necessary. Here’s the best equipment for the Archer Queen, listed in order:
- Frozen Arrow
- Invisibility Vial
- Giant Arrow
- Healer Puppet
- Archer Puppet
Frozen Arrow
Frozen Arrow is a powerful epic equipment for the Archer Queen. This equipment enables her to slow down the attack speed of enemy defenses, providing a big advantage against high-damage defenses like the Inferno Tower and Town Hall’s Giga Inferno.
The slowdown effect significantly reduces the threat posed by these defenses, protecting both the Archer Queen and her supporting troops.
Since Frozen Arrow provides a passive ability, it remains active throughout the entire battle. This makes it a perfect complement to the Invisibility Vial, seriously boosting the potential of your Queen Charge strategies. For these reasons, prioritize upgrading the Frozen Arrow when upgrading your Archer Queen’s hero equipment.
Invisibility Vial
The Invisibility Vial is super important for the Archer Queen in Clash of Clans. It lets her turn invisible for a short time, making her sneak past enemy defenses. The good news is, it’s the default equipment for Archer Queen, so you don’t need to unlock it separately when you get her.
The Invisibility Vial works great with all her other equipment. It’s a smart move to prioritize upgrading the Invisibility Vial—it should be your go-to equipment to make the Archer Queen even more effective.
Giant Arrow
The Giant Arrow is another key hero equipment for the Archer Queen that you should focus on upgrading and using. You can get the Giant Arrow when your Blacksmith hits level 2 at Town Hall 9.
When the Archer Queen uses her special ability (with the Giant Arrow equipped), she shoots a massive arrow from her bow. This arrow travels in a straight line across the entire base, damaging every building it passes through. Players commonly use the Giant Arrow to target enemy Air Defenses and other defense buildings with moderate health, like Archer Towers.
You can strategically launch Giant Arrow to get an early advantage, especially when you aim it to pass through multiple Air Defenses. This tactic sets the stage for successful attacks involving Electro Dragons or other strategies focused on air units.
Healer Puppet
Some players like the Healer Puppet as a top-notch equipment choice for Archer Queen. It comes in handy for Queen Charge attack strategies. This equipment can be a lifesaver if you lose Healers during a Queen Charge. Plus, you can get more Healers by using the Archer Queen’s ability at just the right moment.
A popular strategy among players involves using both the Healer Puppet and the Giant Arrow together. This combo is great for taking out enemy Air Defenses early in your attack with the Giant Arrow. At the same time, you can spawn Healers around the Archer Queen, setting the stage for a smoother Queen Charge attack.
Archer Puppet
The Archer Puppet is the other default gear for the Archer Queen, along with the Invisibility Vial. The cool thing about the Archer Puppet is that you get it right from the beginning. If you were already a higher-level player before the Town Hall 16 update, you will have a higher-level Archer Puppet without needing many upgrades.
Choosing the Archer Puppet can be a smart move if you want to save your Ores for upcoming equipment, like the Frozen Arrow. When you activate the Archer Puppet, it spawns several Archers around the Archer Queen. These little Archers act as both damage tanks and help in taking down nearby defenses.
Keep in mind that Archers have low hitpoints, making them vulnerable to splash damage from buildings like Scattershot, Mortar, and Wizard Towers. The Archer Puppet also boosts the Archer Queen’s health and damage per second, making it a solid choice to consider.
