Stats wise, the nature is the best bang for the buck. However, it fires considerably slower than the water. Therefore, should one stick to ice, and maybe a few nature towers, as their primary defense?

I'm going to borrow someone's strategy a couple pages in of that hidden corner on the top right and build in the middle as well as bottom right so that they cover the whole map.

Wish me luck!

EDIT: level 72 with this strat
level 72, second strat.

You can leave leaf towers non adjacent with the first up-going stretch of way - they will still hit the dots entering the map. But they still don't have the range to hit the stretch you pointed (but they only lack some range).

But evne then, their rate of fire is decreased due to the distance. I like keeping then in between the roads. I just hit 73 with 6 leaf towers (full), two ice towers (full), and some (around 8) lightning things... Unfortunatley I wasn't able to keep track of how it was doing... I'm still at work, and I mostly build and wait...
Click to expand...
I'm wondering if the rate of fire problem is how the writer/programmer got to 90, and if it's the reason for the fire towers. The damage/second of the ice towers really slows with range, but I still can't see how that isn't still better overall than the ultra short fire tower range.

Oh well, one more game... 🙂
 
Has anyone been able to upgrade to the 3rd tier mechanical? I haven't been able to save enough reserve yet without getting destroyed. It's probably not worth it, but I'm curious anyway.

I'm betting if it were possible to save that much money, it would be well worth it. 90,000+ damage seems pretty damned good, even if it is at short range.
 
I got 77 again but just barely. I can't seem to replicate the setup I had before when I got 77, but wasted time on a flower tower. Around wave 4-5 one keeps slipping by.
 
I got to 78 just now. I build one water near the second turn and build it up fairly high. I then build trees up one by one at the end of every corridor so that they just shoot straight down the hall. Turning makes them shoot slower, so having them shoot straight down is the fastest way to kill something.

I tried a couple times and just couldn't do it. 🙁

I don't think that it's possible, at least until upper level 70's +, you just don't get enough money from each kill in the low to mid 70's. Don't get me wrong, I know that it would be worth it, but it just seems out of reach...
 
I dont think the lvl 3 flower tower is worth it actually. It costs, what 23k gold? That is enough to buy a lot of fully upgraded tree guys that shoot a lot further and do 9k each.

someone figure out the income accrued across the first 75 levels.... this wll tell you how much you can spend and still get the lvl3 flowergun

8*(74*75/2) = 22200. Lvl 3 flower = 3000 + 5000 + 15000. Not possible

Edit: seems like the score is not always the level #, at lvl 50 I just got like 55 per kill. Regardless, 23000 is not a feasible amount to save

 
80 yeee!

yeee!

Highest legit score yeah? The claimed 90+ cant be possible. I tried this same strategy with water towers, and only go to about 74 or so.

gratz. Think that is about the best config after all. I tried it and it works well, but I was busy and couldn't watch very closely. Still got 77 with it. not surprised you got 80.

Yeah, that's basically the strategy I've been trying lately... Trees at the end of the halls. Actually, the cannon works really well like that too.
