- When at a distance from them, the poison archer casts an interruptible ranged attack which fires multiple arrows at once at the target, dealing moderate physical damage. (On some poison archers)
- Taking Aim
- A powerful sniping bow attack that takes time to charge up and can one-shot those at low health. Can be interrupted or dodged. (On some poison archers)
- Noxious Cloud
- The enemy shoots an arrow that detonates on contact with the ground at a target's location, leaving a cloud of noxious fumes, which deals continuous low poison damage. (On some poison archers since Blackwood)
