* Three of them are '''Dispensers''' - for [[Slow Field Dispenser|Slow fields]], [[AR-Mine Dispenser|AR]] & [[Rupture Mine Dispenser|Rupture]] mines, while the rest fires (or acts) automatically.
  +
* New towers are unlocked at certain [[Player Ranks|player ranks]] (listed below).
  +
* New tower slots are unlocked at [[Player Ranks|player ranks]] 3, 5, and 9, giving a maximum total of 4 tower slots.
  +
* Players can specify the enemy priorities of 13 of the towers via the [[Targeting System|targeting system]] (the ones without such option are the [[ACP]], [[Scatter Laser|Scatter lasers]], '''Dispensers''', [[Amp Spire|Amp]] & [[Range Spire|Range spire]]).

==Overview==
  
  +
|-
−
*The '''Range Spire''' is similar to the [[Amp Spire|AMP Spire]], in that it increases a certain quality of towers within its range. However, unlike the [[Amp Spire|AMP Spire]], this tower increases the range of other towers.

*The effects of multiple Range Spires do '''not''' stack - only the highest effect is applied. ''(similarly to the [[Amp Spire|AMP spire]] and the slowing effects)''

−
*Like the [[Amp Spire|AMP Spire]], the area of effect of the Range Spire increases when upgraded to rank 3. For ranks 1 and 2, this area is a 3x3 square around the spire. For level 3 '''Range Spire''', the area of effect is a 5x5 square without the corner blocks (another way of stating this is "two straight blocks away, or one diagonal and one straight block away, but not two diagonal blocks away")

<nowiki>*</nowiki> The raw Damage per second (attack speed x damage) & DPS per resource above take into account just a few things, but ignore many important factors, like:
   
  +
* the range impact (more range generally means more damage). Along with the displayed value, it can be clearly seen if the player targets the tower(s) out-of-wave and looks at the map/minimap - then it shows its radius of action.;
−
==Notes & tactics==
  
  +
* the enemy vulnerability, including the partial invulnerability of the [[Hoverer|Hoverers]], [[Bobble Head|Bobble heads]] & [[Fiskeplaske]] and the fact that some armoured enemies like [[Armoured Heavy|Armoured heavies]] & [[Super Heavy|Super heavies]] & [[Screamer Matriarch|Screamer matriarchs]] will reduce/negate the DPS (except the DPS of the [[Drone|Drones]]).
  +
* the towers that use projectiles, meet random obstructions like walls, rocks, '''other towers''', etc, even sometimes [[Base|bases]] - these all are technically also related to the range, since anything that blocks a tower's sight can serve as a range decrease and therefore lower damage dealt. The [[ACP]] is a non-projectile tower and is clearly an exception of this, but if its range reaches into areas, where no enemies pass by, the range utility also is reduced. '''Talking in general, the projectile-using towers are the [[Scatter Laser|Scatter lasers]] & the towers with [[Targeting System|targeting system]]'''.
  +
* the raw probabilities of [[Makeshift Cannon|Makeshift cannons]] to get deactivated temporarily.
  +
* the fact that the [[Drone]] & the [[Orbital Strike Relay|Orbital strike relay]] don't fire all the time, but just for certain periods when they find targets and are ready to fire.
  +
* the '''inabilities''' of the [[ACP]] & [[Orbital Strike Relay|Orbital strike relay]] to '''target & damage''' air enemies and the [[Anti-Air|Anti-air]] to '''target''' ground ones.
   
−
* Using a '''Range Spire''' to increase the range of the [[Focus]] tower(s) can greatly increase its effectiveness, as the [[Focus]] will be able to keep firing at the target for longer, thus being able to damage enemies with its maximum potential for more time.
  
−
* A ranged-boosted [[ACP]] can be used for great effect, covering big areas and not allowing even the trickiest and fastest lumes to escape the damage if a proper killzone 's been made for the improved radius.
  
−
* While the general rule is that a bigger range means more damage and better performance, there are random scenarios, when the extra range is mostly not needed and might situationally have some side effect, although this is also dependent on what range is the player aiming at for the current setup.
  
−
**Sometimes, you'll want focus of the tower on a certain spot, likely the killbox, so it doesn't waste time attacking enemies beyond that zone. [[Orbital Strike Relay|Orbital Strike Relays]] are among the most notable examples of this, as they should ideally fire on enemies which are slowed, stunned, or otherwise inhibited inside the killbox, not those that are rapidly traveling through random parts of the maze. Usually not too much of a problem, since one can set the tower's targeting to "'''Closest'''", thus reducing the "risk" of too distant enemies being targeted. Of course, if the [[Orbital Strike Relay|Orbital strike relay]] already has the desired range, it is fine to leave it outside the '''Range spire'''<nowiki/>'s radius.
  
−
**[[Mind Control Spire|Mind control spire(s)]] don't need the buff very much and often are left out of the '''Range spire'''<nowiki/>'s radius, since often player(s) want to keep the controlling effect for a certain zone, where towers are concentrated, instead of applying the effect to distant lumes that would sometimes be too far away from the damage towers. Long/mid-ranged damage towers usually don't bother much, but those with shorter radius of action might not be helped by the [[Mind Control Spire|Mind control spire]] if its radius goes too big;
  
−
**The [[Kairos]] might randomly throw its slowing orbs very far away and affect too distant zones, similarly to the scenario with the [[Mind Control Spire|Mind control spires]]. This is yet another tower, that can safely be put away from the spire's radius, thus making for better probability that the orbs will be thrown around the close damage towers for a better concentrated fire vs them. Most time this is not too much of an issue, but if the players(s) rely on towers with limited range (e.g. [[ACP]] & [[Lightning|Lightnings]]), throwing the orbs too far away can reduce the [[Kairos]]' utility;
  
−
**While the [[Anti-Air|Anti-air]] is a tower that generally benefits well from the '''Range spire'''<nowiki/>'s buff, there are random scenarios, when the buff would be technically unnecessary, especially since if the tower's target dies, the sent rockets to it 'll automatically be destroyed mid-air. Usually not too much of a problem, but in maps when the [[Anti-Air|Anti-air]] is guaranteed to grab all incoming flying lumes, it is fine to leave one or more [[Anti-Air|Anti-air]] towers out of the Range spire's radius.
  
−
**Another situtation is kinda predictable - at a certain moment and more easily on smaller maps, the towers might meet random obstacles and even to hit in the map's borders, which comes faster for smaller maps. While this is rarely an issue, mainly noticeable in Survival [[Game Modes|mode]], one might want to be careful about balancing between range and damage improvements in order to not lose utility of the range gain and if the buffed towers with the lowest range have grabbed the whole map or the maximum possible they can, this is te<nowiki/>chnically a critical maximum of the '''Range spire'''<nowiki/>'s overcharge & upgrade utility.

Revision as of 21:28, 23 September 2021

  • There are 20 towers - 15 damage & 5 support ones. 12 are from the base game and the other 8 - from the DLCs.
  • Three of them are Dispensers - for Slow fields, AR & Rupture mines, while the rest fires (or acts) automatically.
  • New towers are unlocked at certain player ranks (listed below).
  • New tower slots are unlocked at player ranks 3, 5, and 9, giving a maximum total of 4 tower slots.
  • Players can specify the enemy priorities of 13 of the towers via the targeting system (the ones without such option are the ACP, Scatter lasers, Dispensers, Amp & Range spire).

* The raw Damage per second (attack speed x damage) & DPS per resource above take into account just a few things, but ignore many important factors, like:

  • the range impact (more range generally means more damage). Along with the displayed value, it can be clearly seen if the player targets the tower(s) out-of-wave and looks at the map/minimap - then it shows its radius of action.;
  • the enemy vulnerability, including the partial invulnerability of the Hoverers, Bobble heads & Fiskeplaske and the fact that some armoured enemies like Armoured heavies & Super heavies & Screamer matriarchs will reduce/negate the DPS (except the DPS of the Drones).
  • the towers that use projectiles, meet random obstructions like walls, rocks, other towers, etc, even sometimes bases - these all are technically also related to the range, since anything that blocks a tower's sight can serve as a range decrease and therefore lower damage dealt. The ACP is a non-projectile tower and is clearly an exception of this, but if its range reaches into areas, where no enemies pass by, the range utility also is reduced. Talking in general, the projectile-using towers are the Scatter lasers & the towers with targeting system.
  • the raw probabilities of Makeshift cannons to get deactivated temporarily.
  • the fact that the Drone & the Orbital strike relay don't fire all the time, but just for certain periods when they find targets and are ready to fire.
  • the inabilities of the ACP & Orbital strike relay to target & damage air enemies and the Anti-air to target ground ones.
