Python is an [[Archer]] that joins near the end of [[Zofia's Call|Act 1]]. Python has somewhat low bases even when taking into account his fairly good availability, but he has fairly decent growths, particularly in [[strength|attack]] and [[speed]] growth. However, Python struggles in one very important area: he has very low base [[skill (stat)|skill]] and growth in said area, making his hit rates very shaky at often around 50%. Python also joins at a fairly low [[level]] and is mostly relegated to dealing chip damage so he will need to wait quite some time to promote to [[Sniper]]. He will likely be able to promote at some point during [[War of Deliverance|Act 3]], which will raise his stats and [[range]] with his [[bow]]s. It can be a good idea to give Python the [[Iron Bow]], which will teach him the [[Curved Shot]] combat art to significantly boost his [[hit rate]].

Through [[forge|forging]] in Act 3, the player can obtain a [[Killer Bow]], a very usrful weapon that can be created from the [[Steel Bow]] obtained in Act 1. is the player forges it for him. In addition to its respectable accuracy and high [[critical rate]], through using it Python can learn the combat art [[Hunter's Volley]]. Hunter's Volley has the effect of always allowing its user to attack twice in a row from a long distance. With its extra boosts to attack and critical rate, this art allows Python to deal great damage to most enemies, or even likely one-round them if he lands a critical hit. Thanks to this, Python can become one of the strongest combat units in [[Alm]]'s army, and will be a great counter to enemy Archers and [[Arcanist]]s, among other enemy types. Afterwards, Python will be able to promote to [[Bow Knight]], which will significantly boost his [[movement]], allowing him to hit many far off enemies without them being able to counterattack.

Overall, Python has a fairly shaky start, with his somewhat mediocre bases and low skill making his hit inconsistent. However, after promotion and after getting the Killer Bow his combat will vastly improve and Python will be able to make many annoying sections much more managable. Still, Python does require some notable investment and he will likely still be worse than your villager archer, but it is a good idea to use both just because of the overall utility and power that come from bow users and Hunter's Volley.
