How to counter Oathbreakers

Once you have located a Dunharrow, you can counter them. However, it is recommended that you learn and understand Oathbreakers’ skills before attempting to counter them.

Their first skill, ethereal, allows them to avoid all physical damage and cannot be healed. While the second skill, peace, grants Oathbreakers the ability to do focus damage, while doing a small amount of damage to themselves.

It is recommended that you use units that have a lot of defensive statistics. Alternatively, you can use units that do fire or poison damage.

However, it is advised that you use Commanders such as Gandalf, to do focus damage. Moreover, the Commanders should have the ability to avoid taking damage for a period of time.

How to attack Oathbreakers

It is believed that the best way to attack a Dunharrow is by constructing a fort either close by, or next to it. Moreover, you may have to attack it several times and wait until the Oathbreakers deal damage to themselves.

Please note that when you first attack the Oathbreakers, a one-hour timer will begin. You need to unlock and hire them within this time frame, otherwise their health is restored, and you need to begin again.
