24 Karat

Sandbox Only Content

24 Karat was previously removed on the 29th of October 2020, though it has been made available through the Sandbox mode later.
It is not accessible anywhere else in the game. This page will attempt to include information about both the version before removal and its re-added version.

"*Heavy footsteps.*"

―Beginning of Wave 39 (Golden)

Description

The 24 Karat is a golden enemy that appeared in Golden mode, which is exclusive to Sandbox mode. It has slightly fast speed while having health comparable to that of the Slow Boss. Its main trait was the fact that it is immune to splash damage due to it being a golden enemy. This means that most splash damage that comes from a tower, such as the Rocketeer, is useless against this.

The 24 Karat can be spawned by the Gold Titan, and by the Mystery Boss upon its death in Golden mode, from wave 38 onwards.

The current version of the 24 Karat has no face and is colored gold from head to legs. It is slightly larger than the Golden. The 24 Karat wears a short-sleeved shirt and a gold necktie. The shirt and legs are a different shade of gold compared to its arms. It also wears a golden fedora.

The first version of the 24 Karat was nearly the same as the Golden, except that it wore a golden fedora. Additionally, the 24 Karat used the glass material. Its head and fedora were bright golden, while its torso and legs were a slightly darker of gold.

Strategy

Due to their high health and above average speed, high DPS towers such as the Pursuit, Ranger and Turret are recommended against this.
The 24 Karat is immune to splash damage. Towers that deal splash damage, like the Rocketeer, Mortar and Demoman, are useless against this enemy as they deal no damage.
- It is not, however, immune to all forms of splash damage. The Paintballer, Hallow Punk, Grenade, AirStrike and Nuke can still damage it.
You can slow down the 24 Karat by using the Freezer, DJ Booth and Electroshocker.
- As it has the Stun Immunity, it cannot be knocked back and stuns only slow it down instead of stunning it.

Trivia

24 Karat is a reference to 24 karat (or 24 carat) gold, which is 99.99% pure gold.
- This makes the metal very soft, meaning that it is not stronger than lower karats of gold.
Because of the Mystery Boss, the 24 Karat can appear before its first wave appearance in Golden mode.
