Recruit the Ranger of Arthedain
As the heir of Arvedui, this made Aranarth the King of Arthedain, but he did not claim this title as the kingdom had been destroyed. He instead claimed the title of Chieftain of the Dúnedain, and with the remnants of the Dúnedain he rode with Eärnur of Gondor to destroy the kingdom of Angmar.

Weapons & attack range
Damage is per hit, before target armor. Different projectile upgrades are shown separately. Attack timing can also depend on animation; these values are not a DPS estimate.
