Quick Reference
The build at a glance
Primary Only is a damage check. Every Primary tower has solid damage but none have global range or strong camo detection, so positioning matters more than usual.
The build is Bomb + Tack for grouped damage, Boomerang for ceramics, Ice for slowing, and Glue for stripping MOAB armor. Desperado (Primary category) is the secret weapon — it has camo detection and is excellent value.
Step by step
Sauda is best — she has camo detection built in. Quincy works too.
Place 0-0-0 Bomb Shooter on a curve. Upgrade to 1-0-0 (Bigger Bombs) by round 8.
Add a 0-0-0 Tack Shooter. Get to 0-2-0 (Faster Shooting) by round 18. Tack is a great grouped-pop tower.
Save through the ceramic rush. Use Sauda's level 1 ability on dense groups.
Place 0-0-0 Ice Monkey to 2-0-0 (Improved Ice) by round 40. Add a 0-0-0 Boomerang to 2-0-0 (Glaives).
Add 0-0-0 Glue Gunner to 2-0-0 (Glue Soak) by round 55. Strips MOAB armor for the Bomb.
Bomb to 4-0-0 (MOAB Mauler). Tack to 0-3-0 (Hot Shots) for camo.
Final upgrades: Bomb to 5-0-0 (MOAB Eliminator) if you have the cash. Use Sauda's level 18 ability on round 100 BAD.
Primary towers are cheap. You can afford tier 4+ upgrades on most towers, where in normal play you'd only have 1-2 tier 4s. The build is therefore wide (many towers) rather than tall (one maxed tower). Take advantage of this.
Common mistakes
- Skipping Glue. MOABs have armor that has to be stripped — Bomb without Glue does half damage.
- Not using Ice for slowing. Ice's 2-0-0 + 0-2-0 combo slows MOABs to a crawl.
- Forgetting camo detection. Bomb + Tack + Boomerang don't pop camo. You NEED Sauda or 0-2-0 Tack (Hot Shots) for camo.
