View source for Marksman

'''Marksman''' is a combat [[class]] based around archery. They spawn with a bow and half a stack of arrows, which is their main combat advantage. They are able to [[Flag Tag]], which allows them to "watch" a certain [[flag]] and see who controls it. They can also predict the weather. Since they don't drop their bow and have a small [[bounty]], they are an ideal choice for new players.{{Infobox Class

==Special Mechanics==
Marksman's special ability is [[Flag Tag]]. They can tag a falg by rightclicking the flag's beacon with the item. Afterwards, they see all changes to the flag's status in the chat and in their [[Cithare Compass]].

They also have the passive ability to forecast [[weather]]. The player can see when the next rains starts and how long it's going to last in their TAB menu beneath their K/D/A numbers. Note that this only shows natural rains. Rain created by [[Wizard|wizards]] is ignored by this ability.

== Tips ==
Marksman should attempt to steal as many kills from their teammates as possible, since they have a small bounty base value and slow bounty scaling.

Try to stay outside of melees and snipe enemies instead - use your only advantage well.

Marksmen usually fit well together with [[Gladiator|Gladiators]] because of their weather forecasts. 

== Trivia ==
Marksman was the last class to get a special ability (in [[version 0.11.0]]) (aside from [[Warrior]], who still doesn't have one).
