Attacking Towers


Attacking Towers – Explained

Green lasers 1, 2 and 3
The Green laser towers fire a beam that does constant damage the whole time it is focused on the enemy Vectoid. Laser towers 2 and 3 have so much power that the beam is reflected off the target onto nearby Vectoids. Reflected beams do 100% damage.

Red Refractor, Little Red Spammer and Red Rockets
The Red Refractor is a laser based tower, the red light is refracted through the target and hits all other Vectoids around it. The damage the refracted beam does decreases as the distance increases. The Little Red Spammer fires heat seeking rockets at random targets in range. The Red Rocket tower is one of the most destructive towers at your disposal, the rockets it fires are capable of acquiring new targets mid flight.

Purple Power 1, 2 and 3
The purple laser towers are similar to the green lasers but instead of a continuous beam they store the energy up and release it in a single high power burst. The 3rd tower is so powerful its beam slows the target as it drains its power.

Blue Rays 1 and 2 and the Rewinder Tower
Blue ray towers reduce the speed of the target. The 1st tower can target upto 4 different enemies in a single shot. The 2nd focuses its attack on a single target which stuns it.
The rewinder tower teleports the target back to a point in it's past. Use at the end of your defenses to make those Vectoids get another taste of your towers.


Attacking Towers - Options

Upgrades
All attacking towers can be upgraded 9 times (to level 10) Each upgrade costs 50% of the cost of the initial construction cost. Each upgrade you do will increase the range of the tower by 5% and damage by 45% Towers can not be downgraded, however the money you get from selling the tower does include the money you have spent on all upgrades.

Attack Modes
Most towers can be instructed on how to acquire targets. The 3 modes you can select are Close, Strong, Weak.

"Close" will instruct the tower to select the closest Vectoid when it is looking for a new target. "Strong" will make it select the least damaged target in range and "Weak" will tell it to target the most damaged target in range. Use these 3 modes to create the best setup, using modes like "Strong" on your highest damage towers and "Close" or "Weak" on towers close to the exit.

Selling
At any time you can sell a tower for 75% of the total money you have spent on it, including upgrades. You can only sell attacking towers, booster towers can not be sold.
