Arrow damage is increased by +1 when reaching 70 range and +1 for every 5 units of range above that, capping at +20 damage. Without any other range buffs, switching the Farwind Seer to [[Zephyr Sense|long-range mode]] gives +2 damage, for a total of 7. This upgrade also causes the Skywarden to spawn 4 additional arrows instead of 2 when hitting a Bloon with the 2nd [[Wind Weaver|combo effect]] activated.<section end="lede" /> | ||

To maximise the damage this tower deals, its range must be increased as much as possible. Range can be increased using [[Aerial Attunement]] up to 5 times, [[Berserker Brew]], [[Monkey Village (BTD6)|Monkey Village]], the Take Aim ability from [[Deadeye]] or [[Bounty Hunter]] (with the latter giving significantly more range), and buffs from [[Obyn Greenfoot (BTD6)|Obyn]], [[Geraldo (BTD6)|Geraldo]], or [[Etienne (BTD6)|Etienne]]. [[Bottle of 'Gerry's Fire' Hot Sauce|Gerry's Fire]] benefits massively from this tower's damage scaling as well. | |||
Farwind Seer excels against [[MOAB-Class_Bloon|MOAB-Class Bloons]], but struggles against [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramic Bloons]] if they're not fully popped in a single hit. If a round is causing trouble because Ceramics are getting popped into Reds or Blues, it may be worth giving this tower [[Jar of Pickles]] or switching to its long-range mode. | Farwind Seer excels against [[MOAB-Class_Bloon|MOAB-Class Bloons]], but struggles against [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramic Bloons]] if they're not fully popped in a single hit.

The 5-0-2 crosspath ([[Icebore]]) is usually preferred for the piercing capabilities, with 5-0-1 ([[Shatterpoint]]) being sufficient if no freezing effects are present. 5-1-0 ([[Storm's Pulse]]) is currently non-functional for the speed boost due to a bug, and 5-2-0 ([[Thundering Arc]]) can sometimes be a downgrade due to not piercing in a straight line, despite ignoring obstacles and granting extra pierce and explosion radius based on arrow travel distance. | |||
