Into the Fray: Your First Battle for Middle Earth Dol Amroth - Teal

Dol Amroth - Teal

Dol Amroth is the southernmost of the good factions. Its land army is built around Knights, Footmen, Archers, Priests, and catapults โ€” but its real signature is the sea. As the only good faction with access to ships, Dol Amroth can contest control of the ocean, something no other good faction can do.

Spells & Their Priorities

Forlong

  • Axe stomp at the start, then again at level 3 and level 5.
  • Divine light at level 2 and 4

Corinir

  • Wave at levels 1, 3, and 5.
  • Heal at levels 2 and 4.

Duinhir

  • Wave at levels 1, 3, and 5.
  • Stun at levels 2 and 4.

Imrahil

  • Call of the Silver Swan at levels 1, 3, and 5.
  • Determination Aura at levels 2 and 4.

The Call summons knights, and at level 3 it summons Champions of Dol Amroth.

Why the Champions of Dol Amroth are so dangerous
  • They deal "Heavy" type damage, which does 115% damage to heroes.
  • They receive a 50% spell reduction bonus.
  • They have a 15% chance to bash (a 2-second stun).

Get 12 of these attacking every second or two alongside your heroes, and you pose a serious threat to enemy hero groups. They also tend to dice up most other units they meet.

Demis: Duilin & Derufin

These not-heroes have a stomp and rejuvenation. Good for healing your heroes.

Tactics & Start

The classic Dol opener is to rush everything to Osgiliath. In a private match, aim to have your whole army assembled and ready for a giant 4v4 within 30โ€“60 seconds โ€” a big battle usually breaks out near the middle of the map early on.

If there is a big 4v4 in the north. Often you can be the deciding factor to turn it. Similarly can your nemesis Harad (Light Blue). So keep an eye on Harad.
