Basic Info

Makeshift Towers can be found on Battlegrounds in the fire preset. These towers pelt your units with rapid balls of fire, though they don't deal much damage and can hardly take a beating from most foes.

Abilities

Grenade Launcher

Autocast: Every 3 seconds, tower fires an explosive grenade that deals 40 damage to enemies in a 10m radius around its target, up to 60 in total.

Tips & Strategies

Makeshift Towers are not very dangerous, but do whittle at your units gradually, and they themselves can draw your attention for a time away from tougher, more dangerous threats. Dispatching them should be low on your priority list when engaging.

Trivia

• Non-Player Makeshift Towers share the same stats as an upgraded Makeshift Tower.
• Unlike the player version, these Makeshift Towers do not have any knockback.
