== Damage calculation == === Structures === Arrow tower damage depends on the number of "structures" - buildings built in a town. Not all buildings affect the Arrow tower damage, among them: *All upgrades of [[Creature Dwelling]]s, [[Mage Guild]] and [[Town Hall]]. *[[Horde Building]]s ({{withhota}} except [[Vault of Ashes]]). *[[Citadel]] and [[Castle (structure)|Castle]], since they are [[Fort]] upgrades. *A few towns have several Specific buildings which are upgrades of the other buildings (e.g. [[Brotherhood of the Sword]], [[Fountain of Fortune]]) {| cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 style="background-color:#{{Purple 3}}; border: 1px solid black; text-align:left;" |- align=center style="background-color:#{{Purple 1}}; color:white; height:25px; border: 2px solid #{{green 1}}" ! width=165 rowspan="2"| Common buildings, which are structures ! rowspan="2"| Town ! width=460 colspan="2"| Town Specific buildings, which are: |- ! width=200 align=center style="background-color:#{{Purple 1}}; color:white; height:25px" | Structures !! width=160 align=center style="background-color:#{{Purple 1}}; color:white; height:25px" | Not structures |- | rowspan="11" style="padding-left:10px;" | [[Blacksmith]],<br />[[Creature Dwelling]]s (x7),<br />[[Grail building]],<br />[[Mage Guild]],<br />[[Marketplace]],<br />[[Resource Silo]],<br />[[Tavern]],<br />[[Town Hall]] || {{town|Castle|noname=}} || [[Lighthouse]], [[Shipyard]], [[Stables]] || [[Brotherhood of the Sword]],<br />[[Griffin Bastion]] |- style="background-color:#{{Purple 4}}" | {{town|Rampart|noname=}} || [[Mystic Pond]], [[Treasury]] || [[Fountain of Fortune]],<br />[[Miners' Guild]], [[Dendroid Saplings]] |- | {{town|Tower|noname=}} || [[Artifact Merchants]], [[Library]],<br />[[Lookout Tower]], [[Wall of Knowledge]] || [[Sculptor's Wings]] |- style="background-color:#{{Purple 4}}" | {{town|Inferno|noname=}} || [[Brimstone Stormclouds]],<br />[[Castle Gate]], [[Order of Fire]] || [[Birthing Pool]], [[Cages]] |- | {{town|Necropolis|noname=}} || [[Cover of Darkness]], [[Shipyard]],<br>[[Necromancy Amplifier]], [[Skeleton Transformer]] || [[Unearthed Graves]] |- style="background-color:#{{Purple 4}}" | {{town|Dungeon|noname=}} || [[Artifact Merchants]],<br />[[Battle Scholar Academy]], [[Mana Vortex]],<br />[[Portal of Summoning]] || [[Mushroom Rings]] |- | {{town|Stronghold|noname=}} || [[Ballista Yard]], [[Escape Tunnel]],<br />[[Freelancer's Guild]], [[Hall of Valhalla]] || [[Mess Hall]] |- style="background-color:#{{Purple 4}}" | {{town|Fortress|noname=}} || [[Blood Obelisk]], [[Cage of Warlords]],<br />[[Glyphs of Fear]], [[Shipyard]] || [[Captain's Quarters]] |- | {{town|Conflux|noname=}} || [[Artifact Merchants]], [[Magic University]],<br />[[Shipyard]], [[Vault of Ashes]]{{-wh}} || [[Garden of Life]] |- style="background-color:#{{Purple 4}}" | {{town|Cove|noname=}}{{wh}}{{---}} || [[Grotto (Cove building)|Grotto]], [[Shipyard]], [[Thieves' Guild (Cove building)|Thieves' Guild]] || [[Gunpowder Warehouse]],<br />[[Pub]], [[Roost]] |- | {{town|Factory|noname=}}{{wh}}{{---}} || [[Artifact Merchants]], [[Bank]],<br />[[Mana Generator]], 8th [[Creature Dwelling]] || [[Pen]] |} === Damage === The damage of the primary Arrow tower is calculated by the formula: <big>''Damage = Base_Damage + d * N''</big> The damage of the secondary Arrow tower is calculated by the formula: <big>''Damage = Base_Damage + d * N/2''</big> where ''Base_Damage'' - is the base Arrow tower damage, equal to 10..20 points of damage for the primary and 6..12 points for the secondary Arrow towers; ''d'' - additional damage for every structure built, equal to 2..4 points; ''N'' - number of structures built. The result of ''N/2'' is rounded down. As indicated above, different towns have a different number of structures available, therefore, a different maximal Arrow tower damage range. {| cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 style="background-color:#{{Purple 3}}; border: 1px solid black; text-align:center;" |- align=center style="background-color:#{{Purple 1}}; color:white; height:25px; border: 2px solid #{{green 1}}" !

The [[Defense]] parameter of their targets is always ignored. Despite the right-click tip says that an Arrow tower has 10 [[Attack]], final damage remains unmodified. [[Archery]] or the [[Artillery]] secondary skills do not affect the damage as well, but a defending hero with [[Artillery]] skill is able to control the Arrow towers during a siege. Arrow towers cannot deliver a [[Luck|lucky strike]]. The only exception is a '''bug''', which cause the troops under command of a hero with [[Armorer]] secondary skill take additional damage from the Arrow tower attack. Troops, which are buffed by [[Air Shield]] spell or are [[Petrify|petrified]] take additional damage as well. ''(Fixed in {{hota}}).''
