Strategies[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

The Hermit has received some recent changes that alters his place in the formation. For starters Craziness, instead of multiplying his DPS based on having no one in front of him, instead it increases his DPS if he has fewer than two crusaders next to him. Additionally the changes made to Arrow Attack turns the Hermit into a projectile crusader dealing either 20X the DPS or two hundred times the Click Damage, so if you do have to put him next to someone, you should consider the Bush Whacker whose swordplay ability, if sufficiently upgraded, can very will cause DPS to skyrocket.
