Spike-o-Pult

[DesktopTemple]

Is there anything good about the triple roller upgrade? I mean, one spikeball is enough to cover one long path, and with the triple the spikeballs stop much earlier. Thoughts?

I think the whole spike ball thrower, no matter what upgrades you have or dont have, is ....

Its not worth the money, i would never recomend using the spike catapult...its not needed in any level

I would think otherwise in long paths, such as after the first turn in the 3rd map...

But what is your definition of a "needed" tower? I don't get it.

a tower like the sipke-o-pult, but has a slow moving bulet that has infinity mass/hp/hits-to-disappear point/ect at rediculous prices (like 15,789)

i just really dont like the spike-0-pult...i dont think its worth it at all....i rather buy a cannon or spike shooter......or even a boomerang for that matter

it just isnt a practical tower to use in my opinion....and thats all it really is i guess, an opinion....the spike pult is a bunch of poo

i just did a test and i found out the put thingy put out
5-6 bloons.
with triple spikes...5-6 bloons =(
so believe it or not, a boomerange kills more then a spiky ball of death.
the jugernaut is just not worth it..unless it triples the mass so u can vhit 15 bloons.. but its not like it'd help
i did not forget, desktop =)

thacannon, perhaps you forgot Juggernaut upgrade? That makes it amazingly better, even if it sucks anyways.

That just makes the balls roll farther. It doesn't increase the number of balloons it can pop before the balls disappear.

Actually, I have found that Spike-O-Pult is incredibly useful. In the end of long paths, it can be deadly. Spike-O-Pult (Full upgrade) in my last game actually killed more than any other cannon. (Bar Fully upgraded Supermonkey) (I had Full upgraded Dart monkeys, Missile towers, Tack towers, Boomerangs and Ice towers)

Yes, but the projectile can only kill so many bloons and it is incredibly expensive.
