Now that the frost has settled, was he a good addition?
>suddenly got 2 items out of the daily chest instead of just 1I'm assuming he wasn't, otherwise NK wouldn't try to bait players with free itemsFix the performance for crying out loud
Monke City has fallen...
Map is so short Phayze almost doesn't move at all, most tiers it reached the end but I was at no risk of dying.I hope Elite isn't too bad.
>>720062476to all good things must come an endmaybe we will be reborn like the phoenix

I've only ever played the regular TD ones, how are the Battles games?
>>720061448He's pretty fucking OP when combined with ice monkes. Normal damage type from lvl 5 that gets better as he levels, can see camo despite zero mention of it, gets Rosalias lvl 20 at 13 AND it's even fucking better than her lvl 20 with the extra t5. Abilities feels a bit on the whatever side, as in there's barely any reason to bother using them after round ~60.
>another grind eventI could swear these events used to be way less common. I wasn't expecting any events between the birthday and halloween events and this is already the second between those two.Remember to prep your expert maps. Doing the shit maps on easy normal is still better yield over time than skipping them with deflation.
Going to try this and see if it works on DDB, want to make the village a 402 and the boomerangs all 420 afterwards. Maybe it's enough
>>720064657Why don't you play and find out :)
>>720064657It seems okay if you play casually with friends, but the grind looks horrendous.
>>720066803fingers crossed, those bluefags just will not leave that tile alone
>>720067517I got surprised by how overkill it was, I only had to be paying attention to hex the ZOMGs throughout the 80s and the 3 DDTs on 90.You can get this for cheaper, I also did it with only 3 relics because I brought SMS just in case and didn't need a single one.Ezili000 boomerang002 villagetwo more 000 boomerang302 village003 wizard402 village3x 420 boomerangThat was the order I did it in, couldn't discount one of the 000 boomerangs nor Ezili.
>>720066803Commendable effort, even if I'm a tad sceptical. Top rangs do shit damage, but maybe the village buff will make it work. Certainly cheaper than the ezili, 520 wiz and 020 village I used.
>>720067957Hadn't even bothered testing and my hunch was wrong, making the village a 420 is cheaper than a 402 village discounting everything and the 003 wizard for camoYou can most likely cut the upgrade on the village and keep it a 320. I wouldn't want to bother testing with just two boomerangs unless they actually start fighting for it.
I wish there was some kind of pity mechanic for the insta unlocks. Nothing overly handholdy, but something like it being a bit more likely to be one you don't have unlocked if you hit a t5 and you've already gold bordered that insta. It fucking hurts to get a duplicate t5 when you're actually trying to blackborder them.
guh
what heroes should I look to get first with my monke money? I just started
>>720072856Sauda and Benjamin probablySauda is great on the beginner maps, allowing you to use her alone for pretty much up to round 36, possibly further.Benjamin is solid for making money.
>>720072856What the other anon said, plus Obyn, Etienne and Brickell/Silas. That'a a decent starter setup. Then save up and unlock the rest one by one.Get Corvus and Geraldo last, or don't bother getting them at all. They both require micro.You will eventually get to a point where you have nothing to spend monkedollars on, except continues.
>>720073016>>720073664thanks anons, much appreciated

When are we getting a glue hero or glue paragon
how the fuck do these clowns keep getting random tiles all across the map
>>720083042It's casual so nobody would pull the ol' sitting-on-a-tile-for-hours thing, right?
these little fucksfuck points we have to eradicate these faggots
>>720084030Is he still on it? I'm doing it to recap asap
>>720084735the smoke was gone when I was last on the map but you can never really be sure with this mode
>>720084961Well my score is atrocious and only going to beat what's there by like 5 seconds, if that, so I'll quit
I was gonna take DAB with Etienne solo, didn't see you were doing it
>>720085863you still can, if you can really do thatetienne has always be pretty terrible for solo but if you can work it a 1 tier would be cool
they're escaping top side
I’m not a good enough racist to cross the channel of greens race tiles to hunt down blue
>>720086659how good are the times? I'm not great but maybe I can make a bridge after I finish ADB
Bottom Path desperado is a life saver on non-CHIMPS modes.
>>720086757They’re all like 2 mins the ones at the top
>>720086928okay that's definitely beyond me
>>720086928>>720087003All yours, go get those bluefags
>>720087074no I mean like I can't do that
>>720087259And I mean that I already captured the two races
Anthro bloons or monkeys?
PURGED
>>720088776He just set a better score on the tile I'm on
>>720088776um excuse me, mister, excuuuse meee
>>720088812I was trying to beat it with a dartling + Quincy but they set a 7k or something so I'll add a super
>>720088804how did you not do 030 dartling? it's the obvious choice here
>>720088681Monkeys, specifically Adora.
This is my disappointed face, monke bretheren
>>720089221I'm on that tile with him, but I need others to hit all the tiles and stop them further
>>720088776I think they're caged now
ACTUALLY PURGED
>>720090193i doubt they'll attempt this, but i am CERTAIN this one is beatable with 2 tiers, obyn and a 000 ace. i did this one with 5 but it could be way better, i just didn't really think about it and overspent on a neva miss
>>720090562With nails, SMS and Restoration I think it's a Rosalia solo but I'm sure as hell not in the mood to try it
>>720088876In least tiers sure, in least cash that's extremely expensive and even more when there's a hero available
When should I start attempting CHIMPS difficulty? When I have all my tower upgrades unlocked?
>>720094669If you can get through impoppible, you can probably get through CHIMPS on most beginner and intermediate maps.
>>720094669You can do co-op CHIMPS right now. Assuming you're level 20.
>>720094669once you have all the cheaper t5's you're good, you generally wont be affording anything more expensive than like, 40k in a CHIMPS game

silas does ZERO FUCKING DAMAGEi've used ben exclusively for hundreds of hours until i finally unlocked a new champ, silasbut his shit performance mindbroke me so i now i'm using pat instead
I just popped 2 gold bloons on workshop. You can say I'm a bit of a gamer.also fuck workshop, it's lucky that it's somehow only my 3rd least favorite map
silas's damage comes from the ice monkey buffs. The little icicle circle around them does some good work, as does his level 7 and 10 ability. 3 seems to be mostly to let him kill some purple or white bloons early.Also why the hell would you ever use pat? he also does no damage. Gywn is a better buffer than him and she also does good damage.
>>720099531what does silas' no 1 and 2 abilities even do?pat is fun because he's big, stuns and can push back moabshe can go in water as well and his mech skin is cool
>>720061448>Draw a girl>Call it a boy
>>720099627Silas can go in water, has the water walking aura of a T3 midpath Ice so others can join him, and slows all MOABs
make tank hero cheapermake boat hero go on land
>>720099627the level 3 buffs his regular attack. I can't be assed to double check what exactly it does other than let him hit white and purple bloonslevel 7 does a small aoe blast around him and around all of your ice monkeys in his range. Good for popping the early moabs which ice is otherwise fairly bad at Honestly silas is mostly good because bottom path ice is insanely good. Middle is very good too, but as a support and isn't much damage.
>>720099332Well duh, Silas is a support hero that makes Ice monkeys busted.
>>720100720>strongest hero on the bottomwhat did anon mean by this?
>>720100720very situational hero on the bottom
wowee
>>720096775Seeing how they stopped saying it won't come back in 2022, there is a chance!
>>720099340>not having ravine, quad and dark dungeon as your top 3 shit maps (expert)
>>7200996271 is a buff that lets him hit everything, 2 is a nuke centered on him and whatever ice monkes you have.He can also see camo, which Pat can't because Pat a shit.
>>720106906Ravine and dungeon are top 2I just really hate workshop
>>720107370Understandable. It's very easy to leak on that map. Does get a little easier when you have the start locked down though.
Everyone talks about CHIMPS expert maps, but I really hate half cash and ABR.>Just use insta monkeysNah, want to beat them "legit".
Sorry for the inactivity fellas, I took a bit of a break from the game and lost track of when the CTs were. I used up 10 tickets one after the other to grab some races though like a day or two ago though.
>>720110391using insta monkeys for half cash is the legit way, you'll never ever use them otherwise
Is master alch really the financial blackhole it seems to be or do you get money from the x->red proc?>>720110391ABR is whatever, but fuck halfcash. That's where I use my instas.>legitlelBoth modes can be beaten simply by throwing money at them until you win, and there's no log that proves you didn't continuescummed your way through.
>>720111518Pimp Master Alchemist really is just a meme that tanks your pop income in exchange for being one of the few towers to scale infinitely into Freeplay.
>>720111670Figures. Just built him for shit n giggles in my usual bout of taking the normal daily to 100 for the insta and noticed my income tanking. He does get a fuckload of pops though, so it'll be easy to hit the 16.5 if we ever get an alchgon.
requesting an ice cube on Silas's cocklet so it shrinks even more, with the caption along the lines of ''not too fond of ice now'' (my text sucks but you get the idea)
almost banana time
>>720110942It's fine. We're kinda stuck in casual currently, as long as we're only half a dozen varying degrees of actives. We can absolutely put up a fight, but the sweatlords in comp beats us with more actives and a means of communication we can't have due to being anons.
>>720111670He only fake scales. BADs are what kill you since there's plenty of ways to stall out or otherwise instantly kill anything below BADs so his damage isn't actually relevant damage. Only reason it would matter is if you're getting pierce capped somewhere which shouldn't really be an issue
banana time
The bloons won. Monkeys and their threads are heading toward ruin.
>>720115479>The bloons won.nice try bligger, we are just resting. it will only be a matter of time before we thaw and get back
>>720116231That's what you've been saying since the Tack Paragon and the threads are DEADER than ever.
Any hopes for Bomb Paragon? Stunning recursive MOAB seeking missiles?
>>720074303Being new you probably don't know this. Towers get xp based on the amount of money you spend on it in a given round.Unlocks are best done by getting your basic setup done and then spam building and upgrading the tower you want to gain xp
>>720116620>hopesno>dreamsevery night>expectationsassbroken paragon with multiple nerfs in a row
>>720118492Silly anon, primary paragons don't get nerfs.
>>720118530Yeah they get banned from every Boss rush instead.
I got banned from the monkey exhibit at my local zoo
>>720121007Why do you think there's a "do not touch the monkeys" sign up?It's for them not for the visitors.
Co-op really needs a vote to kick button, one of the players went inactive on elite boss and had a shitload of money meanwhile me and another guy were scrambling to get enough for an ace paragon on tier 5 we got through it when phayze was like a pixel form exit
>>720122554The first thing they need to do with coop is fixing all the disconnects, their servers must be garbage.
>>720122554Pictured
live
>>720126546if you say so
They should add in a bee monkey tower
>>720129735She looks like she misbeehaves with human men.
>>720116620i never really even use bomb anymore, it feels like a lot of other towers got buffed enough to not need bomb on the field i don't really know what to expect but i hope it comes with a bunch of bomb tier buffs too
>>720061448>heNo. The only monkes that matter are female.
>>720130761what was the last advanced map you used sauda on, big man
>>720130725Top path has always been a meme because stalling for that big a price is never really worth it in general scenarios since BADs exist. The same problem as top path druid.Middle path spam used to be a thing, but got nerfed several times, I don't remember the last time I really used that path.Bottom path is my favourite but the nerf to its black bloon damaging capabilities really hurt it so it's much harder to use now.
>>720131304i think middle path was essentially dust when MAD was either introduced or was buffed, Elim became weirdly situational since in a normal game you'd never need that much single target damage before the 90's and saving a bit more to just have a MAD is a better option. plus, the T4 being so cheap and only a *little* bit better than T3 means you either have it sit doing mostly nothing till T5 or you spam a bunch of thembottom path has caught so many nerfs now i can't imagine using it anymore and the T5 still isn't worth buying after all the buffs
>>720131721MAD and Elim are kind of different uses because of their price difference, of course overall you prefer the MAD but Elim can be afforded way earlier so it shines in things like T1 fast boss kills.But in general gameplay I just don't see why you'd ever get it over other towers.I do appreciate that they buffed the ability of the moab assassin by allowing it to skip layers so it instakills moabs now.
>>720130761never heard a bigger lie in all my days
whenz phayze
>>720135083FKVSCX
how do I get good at farmingI recently came back to this game and I want to get good boss scores since I think it's fun in theory
brb I gotta do a thing
>>720136072I'll continue for a bit until the bank fills
>>720136114what's the plan? elite defender on a rock?
>>720135825I don't know the best strats since they kind of depend butIMF is amazing early game thanks to being able to deposit.I believe Geraldo is overall better between the figure, the fertilizer and just all the utility he provides but I'm lazy and I prefer to bring Benjamin.First of all, Benjamin's trojan actually steals money from you so you want to ideally place him in a place where his line of sight gets blocked as much as you can.After Ben is placed I like doing 2x 200 farms, then turn one into a 220 and the other into a 202. Then the moment you have enough money (in medium that's 1061 but in other difficulties that changes) you sell the 202 and get a 230 bank. If it has money from buying it in the middle of the round, collect it so it goes to 0 and wait for it to fill up to 9500 (without Ben it goes to 9464)While you wait for it to fill you can usually afford a 200 farm. As soon as the bank actually fills up, you collect and buy the 240 IMF. Then deposit around 5800 if you can so that it fills up.When it fills up and you also have the ability up, you can make what I call an IMFopolis, a 005 village that eats the IMF. Here you also get an engineer trap.Afterwards you just get farms, you kind of want to rush the banana central but that takes a bit, feel free to ask more if you have questions.>>720136498When I did it earlier I got a 024 ace but edefender is probably better yeah nice call
Village is like 5 pixels out of putting Sniper on the rock with full track coverage
>>720136976Yeah I wasn't thinking of using the rock when I did it sorry.
>>720136708I see I see, I'll probably do some research and testing / learning with all this info on a notepadI've liked bosses since they introduction but I've mostly sucked at them (granted I'd only do ranked and back then timed was the ONLY ranked mode) but with least tier and least cash it seems a lot more fun, that or just being good at farming for co-op seems like a neat skill to have, so thank you
I think we can do that same strat, can you micro the sniper so it advanced the rounds faster instead of just on the boss?
>>720137364I don't know, can I?
So what we doing this tier? In fact what is the plan in general here
I think this defense dies to 63 so a MAD is not going to be enough, we probably want something to defend that round besides something to kill the boss. We can try to go to a flying fortress maybe?>>720138537A dartgon down the line should be enough
>>720138594Sure, we building the MAD or the Ace first?
>>720138709It's either or, if we go MAD we need something for 63. If we go ace we only get that. Up to you.
>>720138594030 heli parked on his portal. Add 012 glue(s) as needed, if you got the cash to spare for a 030 icemonke somewhere around the middle.
Seeing how much we struggled with normal I fear EliteProbably fucked up the farming at the start
>158thThat's worse than usual. How tf people out here doing it in 300k
>>720140218Either ninja spam or dart paragon probably
>>720140218Vadim has started doing ranked boss guides. His sub begging faggotry aside, he's actually good at what he does so I assume that's at least part of the reason there's more ranked players now.
