Strategy

[Tarama]

So, anyone wants to share their cool strategies with the rest of the class?

So far I am having trouble getting past wave 30 to 35 on all Archer's Oath campaign.

I think the best way to win is making towers hit multiple lanes and design your maze around that

Yeah that's seem to work for most of the runs. Making zigzag maze with sniper being able to cover it all is pretty nice.

If you get lucky with the rng of tower tho

A big old snake is the best way indeed!

Nice build!
And yes, seems that big boy snake is the best strategy...

one way to get an OP isle is to save your money. even if i lose a few hp early game, i prefer getting up to 40 gold asap to scale up faster in the late game

otherwise, simply employ the universal roguelike strategy: keep grinding until you get ridiculously lucky ;)

In addition to the mazing suggested above, you can also try to place your AOE towers (cannons, ballista, and boulder towers for Archer's Oath) nearer the enemy spawn point so that they can clear out weaker enemies first. This way, only the stronger enemies make it to your archer towers so they don't waste time picking off weak enemies. Adding an ice trap or two to this "aoe area" also helps a lot, it's worth collecting a few bombs to make sure you can fit them in.

Luck is the only way

With more gametime under my belt, the best strategies so far are:

• Try to make all towers hit at least two path
  
• Snake corners so you can put traps in more efficient places
  
• Sacrifice HP to gather more money at the beginning (as mention in previous comment)
  
• It's ok to burn all your money at some points if you really need to find THAT tile that would complete whatever you are building
  
• Make uncompleted path and link them when you can AKA plan ahead
  
• Relics are RARELY worth it - just sell it
  
• Most encounter are RARELY worth it - just avoid/skip them
