Yeah I'm actually glad Cyber and Oister mentioned it here because I might have overlooked it. It's definitely awesome though.Originally Posted by Ricardo0110
Exactly my reaction when i bought it.
Oh and Cyber I got some tips on how to use the characters, well it's just my initial impressions but it's been working for me.
The Squire's Spike/Bouncer Blockade is good for dealing constant damage to big monsters while keeping them at bay. They're more effective against the smaller monsters as they will keep trying to get past them and get pushed back while taking damage. Archers though will shoot at them so you should manually take em out.
They are also good for protecting some of the more powerful and damage towers by placing them right in front of them. The Towers will attack right through the barricades you set up without damaging them.
The Huntress Proximity mines are very strong and can severely damage a group of monsters instantly. if you place em along the path monsters take, they can pretty much lock down that path. You can increase the amount of damage they do, the detonation count or the AoE to make em more effective. Her Inferno trap is good for causing continual damage on a monster in it's AoE. It's best to place one right in front of a barricade so that while the monster is trying to break it down, it's being damaged by the trap.
The Monk is mostly support and should probably focus on keeping traps active. His Ensnare Aura is massively useful as it slows down enemies movements and actions, reducing the damage your defenses take. It also makes enemies walking through the Aura take more damage since it takes them longer to get to where they want to go. Using an Inferno Trap or an Electric Aura on top of that makes it very lethal.
A nice trick to cover a corridor is to set a ranged damaged dealing tower behind a barricade, then Ensnare the area in front of the barricade, along with an Inferno trap or some Proximity Mines.
Traps and Auras are easier to repair their uses as long as you stay on top of things and have some decent movement speed. Towers and blockades are harder to stay on top of if they are being attacked.
There's a whole bunch of different strategies though, you just gotta play around and see what works best for you.
