Ranged units a good against non-ranged units if you can kill a lot of your opponents units before they can reach you. Also hit-and-move tacktics are good. However in these two aspects, the Ellephant Archer fails. It has high HP, but if you are fighting with a combination of units, mainly the frontline non-ranged units need durability.

Did you know that Ellephant Archers have a low rate of fire? Elephant Archers have a quite low DPS for their cost. Fully upgraded caveliers beat Elephants archers 1 on 1. If you still can´t beat them, join them. Or better: make them join you: Wololo! This unit has its weaknesses, but is increadibly good at dealing with Archers.
