'''Drow Archers''', also known as '''Elf Archers''', are enemies in ''[[Skylanders: Giants]]'', but despite being called a [[Drow]], they take on the appearance of a yellow [[Imps|imp]]. They also bear  big similarity to [[Rocket Imps]], which are enemies from ''Spyro's Adventure''. They fire arrows into the sky to strike their targets from above, and use a fiery stomp if you get close to them in certain circumstances.
