Description

The Heavy is a slow enemy that appears in Molten, Fallen and High Rank PVP Test modes. It also appears in Badlands II and Pizza Party maps. It also appears in the Sandbox exclusive Legacy Fallen and Golden modes.

In comparison to the Abnormal and Quick, it is quite a tanky enemy. However, it walks much slower than those enemies. The Heavy also has defense, something the Quick and Abnormal do not have. The Heavy can also be spawned by the Dark Necromancer and the Mystery in Golden mode and legacy Legacy Fallen mode only.

Appearance

Strategy

• The Heavy has higher health compared to the Abnormal and Quick, along with defense. Thus, it is recommended to invest in additional defense before or during Wave 5/7.
• Most towers can deal with the Heavy fairly easily.
  • Cheap towers with good cost efficiency, like the Golden Scout, Militant or Golden Crook Boss are recommended.
  • Stronger towers like the Minigunner or Golden Minigunner can fare pretty well if you are able to afford them, though it is advised to use the Farm if you plan to do so.
  • Towers with lower range, such as the Brawler, Warden and Shotgunner may struggle due to the Heavy's high health.
    • This should not be a worry outside of Fallen mode.
  • The Military Base's units deal full collision damage to enemies with defense, making multiple Level 2 Military Bases very effective against this enemy.
