Blackburn Castle Heroic not solvable

[Fireball]

Hi,
I try to solve this level in heroic, but it's not possible.
Are there any tower against the knights that turn to ghosts? No tower will harm the knights?
Are there any tower to hold on the werewolves? No tower will harm them bevore they are rushed through the level...

I think, the game has hardly errors in this level, the monster can't be beaten by the towers. It cannot be, that the DEVs build a tower defense, where towers not defense...

Is it possible to bugfix this level?

I saw YouTubeVideos, but also there the YouTuber win only with much luck and the exact setting of towers will not work no.

Why is it possible, that a game, that is so long on steam has so hard errors and no one notice?!

A lot of the maps seem to need a lot of micro management on harder difficulties. I personally am enjoying it less and less because of it. I did beat this level, but it does take some micro.

Also with micromanagement is this level not sure solveable... it depends hard on luck. And as I say... towers have no realy sense in this level, It's only heros and guards. And sometimes they win, sometimes they lose. There is simply no solutions for this level, because the towers can not harm the monsters hard enough. The only way to solve is: have luck. And this make no sense.

I saw the Video... also many lucky scenes in this...

It can't be planned by the makers, that towers are so weak, I'm sure this is an unfound bug.... I can't belive, that a tower defense can't fight with towers.....

Ok, now played it five times and do in every round exactly the same. Same soldiers at the same place, same strategie....
in every round the results are completely different. In one round, I have nearly no problems and in Wave 5 I was simply overrun. All the other rounds end in Wave 3 or 4, in one rund I was overrun in Wave 1!
How can this happen, when I exactly do the same every time?

Set the hero against only one Lykaner.... Hero loose. Set 2 Level 3 Barracks against ONE Lykaner. Lykaner wins. PLEASE, Devs, look for the code and send a bugfix. Something is absolut wrong in these (and other) levels. The damageroutines work absolut wrong.
I'm glad not buying all the other parts of this game. I wan't, it's a so great Idea. But not supported... :(

Sounds like you are just really bad at the game. The later levels are hard, but they are hardly unbeatable. I beat them all my way, then go on Youtube, and see people beating them in totally different ways, often without a hero/rain of fire/only one tower type/etc.

[Fireball]

Don't think, that the game later level are solveable only with this absolut weak towers. The only way to win EVERY Iron/Heroic level are heros and reinforcements. Towers are absolut useless against lykianer or knights. Much, much much too weak.
In the beginning, it's one of the best Tower Defenses I know.... but at the later levels, the towers are absolut useless.

And I'm right. As seen here, noboday has an Idea or a solution for this levels.

The Spectral Knights have high magic resistance but absolutely zero physical resistance while they are knights, and are completely immune to physical damage when they are ghosts. This is not bad design, it means you have to adapt and build a mix of towers in the right locations.

[Fireball]

Good Idea... But the physical strength to the knights is so absolut high, no tower can't stop them. I played the heroic version time by time without a solution. Not enough power to build the mass of towers to stop the knights AND the ghosts. One of the is possible but both. And when I get this, the Lykaner will overrun me in seconds, because the defense against the knights will stop no Lykaner. Nothing will stop the Lykaner for real. Only massive firepower can stop the. But... without gold, no firepower and lose the game.
Tried many combinations of towers... the game is so absolut good and at the same time so absolut frustrating in leveldesign... Makes me sad.

Not sure why you think there is no solution. Plenty of people have beaten these levels. Are you expecting to win every time?

Some levels are just really hard. Keep trying and eventually you will win.

Archer and mage towers can produce both kinds of damage when properly equipped. Knights with healing can keep enemies in place for a while. And situate a mage tower next to them to either incinerate, teleport, or have an elemental stop them.

Tried this and beat the knigths and ghost. Next come a group of lycaner and overrun easyly my defense... absolut not enough gold to hold all enemys.... Tried this level very more than 50 times with changing stategies. I don't think, that plenty of people beat this level.
In former games, I reach it... but at know... absolut no chance. And - curiously - all strategies from YouTube won't work. Don't know what to do....

Waves of ghosts and knight come after each other... the ghosts kill my high level guards easily and the knight overrun me. And guards helps nothing against lycaner.... they made it more worst. every dead knight became a werewolf.
Level is so frustrating....

Here is a new strategy that I just did 4 times in a row. The sorcerer mage tower is the key because of the debuff. I did it without the tesla as well by using wizard towers or all sorcerer. Use the same hero.

Hmm.... won't work at me. The moment, the Lykaner run against the soldiers, they bite them and I have werewolfs... they overrun me...... :( :( :(
Played 5 times in a row with your design.... every time the same problem. Overrun by Lycaner (breakthrou) or werewolfs....
Levels like this destroy all the gamefun... :(

ok, seems that this level is not solvable for normal players. I solved it in my >300 hours gameplay a few times with much much luck. But I don't see a repetitive solution.
I think, game designers have not tested the heroic and iron levels.
This makes a great game worst... a game, that have no solution in some levels is not finished...
