Level Rising Light of the Grey Havens: - Gandalf blinds his enemies when he appears, for a few seconds all nearby enemy units are stunned but Gandalf cannot use his abilities during that time. Passive Ability.
Explosive Blast (X) - Close range attack that blasts back enemies and deals fire (FLAME) damage. Left click on the icon then left click on the target enemy.
Burning Pine Cones (C) - Gandalf ignites pine cones which explode with sparks in the enemy ranks dealing damage. Left click on the icon then left click on the target area.
Gandalf's Fireworks (V) - Gandalf launches a sparkling dragon into the air, which homes in on the targeted enemy unit and explodes in their midst, dealing heavy damage and knocking them down. Left click on the icon then left click on the target enemy.
Strategy[]
Gandalf is nothing without his abilities when summoned by the Dwarves. His Explosive Blast should be used on large clumps of enemy units to kill and disrupt. Gandalf's Fireworks should again be used to large groups of enemies as this will have the largest impact. The Burning Pine Cones can be used to inflict fire damage on targets, making him powerful against ents. Gandalf is not present for a long time and so his abilities should be used quickly, without being wasted. As Gandalf's main strength is his abilities, certain abilities like the Witch-King's Soul Disturbance and Lurtz's Cripple will immediately weaken his impact. Used efficiently, Gandalf can have a massive effect on the outcome of a battle and can destroy whole armies by himself.
