New Dark Troop: Rogue

Please leave comments and feedback! I'd love to hear any ideas you have to help balance this troop or improve it! Any criticism is greatly appreciated!

This traveling woodsman is so skilled with knives and can throw three at a time all at different targets!
Unlocked in dark barracks level: 7 town hall 10
Barracks upgrade cost: 3,750,000 Elixir
Max level: 6
Housing space: 5
Training time: 4 Mins
Movement speed: 20
Damage type: Multiple target
Favorite target: Any
Targets: Ground & Air
Range: Main range (range of first blade thrown) is the same as an archer, secondary range (range of the other two blades) is double the main range.

Damage(DPS) Health Training cost Research cost (DE) Lab Level Research time

Level 1: 20
(60 total) 150 20 DE N/A N/A N/A

Level 2: 25
(75 total) 175 30 DE 30,000 7 5 d

Level 3: 30

Level 6: 50
(150 total) 275 75 DE 150,000 8 14 d

AI and Behavior: This troop will target any structure within its main range which is the same as an archer however the other two blades will be thrown at the nearest two structures within a secondary range equal to twice an archer's range, if two structures are not within the secondary range it simply throws any extra blades at the main target.

Description: A traveling woodsman who has honed his skills with throwing knives so well that he is able to hit three separate targets at the same time.

Physical appearance: A man in a dark green cloak and a brown leather garb, the inside of his cloak starts out a faded red but gets brighter and richer with each level, at level 6 a gold trim appears around outside of his cloak He wears leather finger less gloves and throws knives in a horizontal fashion.

Fixed

Just fixed the statistic table, sorry about how confusing it looked earlier without the borderlines, I just found the table function today and didn't notice they were turned off. Anyway, hope you guys like my troop idea! I would be grateful for any comments on what you think of it as well as any criticism or tips on what i could do to balance it better, I know it's not perfect but i tried to keep the stats reasonable while still having it be worthy of the dark troop status.

Decent idea.

Its definitely original. It looks like a great clean up troop that can easily contend with the wizard and witches. Only problem is that this seams like a dark barracks level 2 or 3 troop, not level 7 dark barracks worthy. Its not exactly the game changing troop that I've really been waiting for or a troop that could majorly effect my raiding strategies but seams like a better troop to donate for cc defense in wars and such, seeing that it attacks 3 targets at once and can target air and ground units. I have a question, can the Rogue throw all three knives at one target or dose he throw 1 knife when there is 1 target , and 2 knives at 2 targets? Best of luck to you and your troop.

I agree, it doesn't seem like a huge game changer at first but there are a few things that i did take into account to set it apart and make it well worth the upgrade. First is it's health, while level one and two will be easily taken out be a level one giant bomb starting at level 3 each troop can survive a blast from a giant bomb 2 levels below it which means that maxed rogues can survive a hit from maxed giant bombs setting them apart from any other ranged ground troop.

Secondly is it's usefulness as a support troop placing these behind giants or golems would allow you to quickly move through a base because these target multiple structures at once meaning they would be able to destroy normal buildings all the while doing damage to the defenses attacking the tanks in front of them.
As for the last couple questions you had i actually simply forgot to add those in the original post haha, I'll update it now though.
Thanks for the comments :D I had almost forgotten to add how it uses the three blades:p
If anyone has any more comments or questions i would be glad to answer them and any criticism is welcome as well!

How does the multiple target works?

Is the three point attack fixed in a certain area/cell from a central point or around him in case the other targets are scattered?

I'm not exactly sure what you mean but if you are asking whether it matters if the targets are both in front and behind him then no it would not matter. As long as the second and third targets are within a radius equal to twice an archer's range then he will hit them no matter their position relative to each other.

Yeah you got my point. :) so that means the radius is calculated from the troop itself and not from the first target.

not half bad

something like this would be plausible. i commend you for making realistic stats that actually balance with the games current gameplay. good idea.
