I love Archers, because I love how pitiful they are. I like watching them fire their little worthless bows as they take up a slot that could and should be long to a much more powerful and more effective class. They can't really take hits, and actually can't really do anything.

Plus, you can put them at really high elevations where they can do their awful, nearly scandalously bad damage from great distances, if you happen to be fighting in the one level of the game that actually allows you to do that.
