Eowyn

Eowyn in BFME 1

Eowyn is a niece to King Theoden and sister of Eomer. She is a hero of Rohan in BFME 1 and of the Men of the West in BFME 2.

Battle for Middle Earth 1[]

Skill requirments are based on the 1.09 patch.

Overview[]

On paper she is an unimpressive hero. She has much lower health and lower damage than both her King and her Brother. In addition to that, she does not boost morale of nearby troops nor does she have any ability that immediatly catches attention. That image is however misleading.

Her being priced at the same level as King Theoden is justified by her function. Her spear throw, even though seemlesly the same as in Eomer's case, is far more devastating to beasts and to the Nazgul - only units outside of pikemen that are able to devastate the excellent Rohan cavlary. Combined with her ability to greately increase her armor for a short time and being able to disguise herself as a Rohirrim Warrior, she serves an important tactical role in the forces of her nation - especially when facing not the AI, but a human opponent.

Description
Smite 1 Powerful ranged attack. Deals bonus damage to beasts and the Nazgul.
Disguise 4 Eowyn disguises herself as a Rohirrim Warrior. Unless stationary and directly looked at, she is hard to distinguish from the real unit. Using the Spear Throw or Shieldmaiden skill will lead Eowyn to reveal herself and puts a cooldown on the ability.
Shield Maiden 6 Eowyn greately increases her armor for a short period of time.
Mount/Dismount 1 Switches between fighting on foot and on horseback. When mounted she is more resistant to the average infrantry, but gets increased damage from pikemen and arrows.
