Demonic Units

Deathly Horror is a very powerful ranged attacker that can crush most close and ranged defenders. Its close combat counterpart is Demon Horror. Unlike ice units, these demonic units are always available and are a staple of offensive compositions.

Where to Obtain Them

Deathly Horror has several sources, so you can reliably replenish your supply:

  • Purchase for Silver Parts – 100 silver parts for 100 units, maximum 34 packages per week.
  • Nobility Contest as a reward.
  • Random daily login bonus.
  • Random special offers.
  • Exchange in Fire Peaks – 50,500 glass for 5 units.
  • Reward from Honor Rankings.

It was added to the game very early: announcement on December 20, 2012, official launch on January 7, 2013.

Combat Properties of Deathly Horror

Deathly Horror is purely a ranged attacker with the following values per unit:

  • Ranged Attack: 162
  • Ranged Defense: 24, close defense: 15
  • Food Consumption: 5/h, loot: 40, speed: 28

There are units with the same base values, such as Master Archer, Gnomad Archer, or Star-Spangled Crossbowman. However, Master Archer has lower food consumption compared to them, making it more economical if you have a choice.

Demon Horror, Close Combat Counterpart

Demon Horror is the close combat version and forms a pair with Deathly Horror:

  • Close Attack: 185
  • Close Defense: 19, ranged defense: 5
  • Food Consumption: 5/h, loot: 35, speed: 28

In mixed offensive waves, both units complement each other: Horror pressures close defenders, while Deathly Horror takes down ranged ones. They share acquisition sources (Nobility Contest, Kingdom's League, offers), so you can build them concurrently.

Veteran Variants

Stronger veteran versions drop from the Kingdom's League at the end of the season:

  • Veteran Deathly Horror – 175 ranged attack, 26 ranged and 17 close defense, loot 50, food consumption 5/h.
  • Veteran Demon Horror – 200 close attack, 21 close defense and 6 ranged, loot 45, food consumption 5/h.

Veteran versions have higher attack and loot with the same food consumption, so if you obtain them from the League, they are definitely a better choice for offense than the basic variants.

Pro player tipExhaust the weekly limit of 34 packages of Deathly Horror for silver parts when you actively use it for offense. It is the most reliable source to keep your supply filled. For maximum efficiency, combine Deathly Horror (ranged) with Demon Horror (close) and prioritize deploying veteran versions from the Kingdom's League.
Common mistakeMixing Deathly Horror with defensive units or placing it on defense. It is a pure attacker with a ranged defense of 24 and close defense of only 15, so it will quickly fall on the walls. It belongs in offensive waves, not in garrisons. Also, remember that Master Archer has the same attack for less food if you are concerned about consumption.
