Mordor Orc Archer

Mordor Orc Archers are Mordor Orcs equipped with bows. They are thus the same in most respects. They are the servants and soldiers of the Dark Lord Sauron. It is said that Orcs were created by Morgoth, made out of the Elves he tortured and bred in the first age. They can spawn day and night in Mordor, due to ash clouds from Mount Doom that block out the Sun. This cloud also protects the Mordor Orc Archers from the debuffs they normally receive from the sun They spawn in the areas surrounding Mordor such as Ithilien Wasteland, but there they will only spawn at night or underground. They are able to spawn by themselves or in large groups. They are armed with Orc Bows.

Behavior
Mordor Orc Archers will attack any nearby good NPCs, and will also target good-aligned players. With Mordor Orcs, the chance of being attacked decreases the lower your alignment gets, and when your alignment reaches -50 for Mordor they will no longer target you.

When not attempting to kill something the Mordor Orc Archers wander randomly, although like other creatures of darkness, they prefer unlit areas. They will not burn or be damaged by sunlight, however in direct sunlight they gain slowness and weakness effects similar to all other Orcs. When not being engaged by a good entity there is a chance that they will start attacking each other in what is known as a skirmish, this fighting can spread and wipe out entire groups of orcs. This happens with many other Orcs as well but is most common with the Mordor Orcs. You can disable these skirmishes with this command "/gamerule enableOrcSkirmish false."

Drops
Mordor Orc Archers commonly drop rotten flesh and their Orc bones, and also have a few rare drop possibilities such as Orc Steel ingots, Maggoty Bread, and Orc Draughts. As well as these, they have a moderate chance to drop their bows and some of the equipment they are carrying.
