Description
The Shock, originally named the Lightning, is a very fast enemy that only appears in Legacy Molten. It is noticeably faster than most enemies in the game. They have the same amount of health as the old Molten, meaning that they are a dangerous threat.
The Shock can be spawned by the Mystery upon its death in Molten mode from wave 27 onwards.
Appearance
The fifth version of Shock was identical to its fourth version, except it is faceless.
It plays a popping sound whilst emitting green question mark particles on death.
The fourth version of the Shock was slightly smaller than an average enemy. It had glowing yellow skin. Its torso and legs were glowing light yellow. It had a lightning bolt symbol on its torso. It had grey diamond-plated armbands on both its arms. Yellow sparks were emitted from its torso and arms. It had a sad face.
The third version of the Shock had glowing yellow skin, its torso and legs were golden, and it had a lightning bolt symbol on its torso. It had a drooling zombie face. Yellow sparks were emitted from its head and arms. When running, its animation was similar to that of a Naruto Run.
The second version of the Shock had glowing yellow skin, its torso was yellow, its legs were dark-ish yellow, and it had a lightning bolt symbol on its torso. It had a drooling zombie face. Yellow sparks were emitted from its torso. When running, its animation was similar to that of a Naruto Run.

Strategy
- Using towers that can slow down the Shock, such as the Electroshocker, Sledger and Warden, is highly recommended.
- Be wary that due to its fast speed, Sledgers may occasionally miss their swings.
- Because of its high damage, a few Level 4-5 Electroshockers can be used to easily kill multiple Shocks.
- Towers that can damage multiple enemies at once, such as the Rocketeer or Mortar, can be useful against Shocks, as they mostly spawn in groups.
- The Military Base's Tanks and Railgun Tanks can absorb damage from damaged Shocks pretty easily while also being able to damage them.
- High DPS towers, like the Minigunner, Pursuit, or Accelerator can easily take out hordes of Shocks.
