Discussion
Archery is a secondary skill with two sides.
Is almost useless if a hero has only few (weak) ranged units.
On the other hand, it may be even better than Offense, which only gives 30% increse to melee damage, if a hero manages to muster strong ranged units like level 7 Titans (the strongest ranged (not flying) shooting unit in the game) and level 6 Cyclops Kings creatures.
From the faction Tower (level 1 Master Gremlins, level 7 Titans, creature level 4 Mages or Arch Mages, 3 different shooter units) and Dungeon (level 3 Beholders or Evil Eyes and level 4 Medusa or Medusa Queens, 2 different shooting creatures) heroes are perhaps the advisable candidates to choose Archery because of the powerful ranged units.
Archery combined with the artifact Golden Bow is an effective combination, not to mention the combination artifact Bow of the Sharpshooter in Shadow of Death.
