The Poison Wisp

ambienteternity · 05-19-2008, 09:07 PM

as some of you might know, i've been playing again.

i made ambienteternity double gold before i went on my hiatus

i'm terrible at using the gold units

but i'm trying to get better. the poison wisp confuses me. it's my favorite unit simply because of how hard it is for me to use. i think it has great potential, but i cant seem to get the hang of it

rush, or turt?

in turt it seems great with the furgon, but overall, it doesnt have a super effect on the game until the mud and cleric are dead.

in rush, it helps dispatch the cleric quickly, but dies shortly afterwards

i need tips on this mysterious unit

Well it works good for both instances. If in turt, a good way to use it is with a furgon or a frost or both. A rush it works well, but without it stoned it basically is useless. A good way to use it is against a longer turt wait unit or melee unit. Poisoning a couple knights and a dragon for example is good. Just make sure you get it in position to either freeze incoming knights or scouts or shrub them off.

I don't really use the wisp in rush but I do use it in turt. Try to use it late in the game. It is way more effective.The wisp and mud can also be a great combination. Since the quake doesn't effect the wisp you can weaken or even kill the units that are poisoned.

Its one of my favorie units.
Good against witch bombs because it can get in with the line, and often to hurt it you gotta hurt another unit.

I keep it back by the cleric so that any unit that gets too close, usually the mud, can be wisp'd and it'll take a bit for the next unit to get over far enough over to attack and kill it. Move a unit in front of it though so it cant be taken out by the scout.

PW is very nice even with their mud and cleric on the field.

It's a continuing damage and Muds can't hit it with their quake.

I love using the PW + BW combo. But I only use that combo in fun games for clan matches.

Do what fearliss said. I do that in my FPS turt. I use:

Cleric, stoney, frost, Archer, wisp, Archer, Mud, Knight, LW, and furgy.

I used Poison wisp in defensive turts. Not much of an offensive unit if you ask me.
