Ability: Shovel

Heals nearby skeletons 8 health per second.

How to use

The gravedigger heals nearby skeletons for 8 health per second: with him a group of skeletons holds much longer. He is weak himself (damage 5), so put him in the middle of the skeleton group, not in front.

Strengths and weaknesses

  • Strong against: long fights where skeletons keep taking damage.
  • Danger: area damage, wolves and gryphons reaching the middle of the line.
  • Works well with: skeleton warriors and skeleton archers.

Price by castle level

A unit's price grows by 25% for every castle level above its tier: this makes higher-tier units a better deal than cheap ones.
