Source facts
How do I increase the power of my defensive towers during a session?
You can increase the level and power of your defensive structures by utilizing the tower merging mechanic. This involves combining two identical towers you have already placed to create a more effective unit for your citadel's defense.
What is the best way to approach the 'Cards of Fate' system before a wave?
Before each wave, you are presented with three unique upgrade cards. It is suggested that you carefully weigh your current needs, such as gold, magical spells, or free traps, as your choice will directly influence your tactical options for the upcoming battle.
What is a key tactical consideration when facing bosses in Main Bastion?
When fighting bosses, focus your efforts on defeating the leader first. Doing so can demoralize the enemy army, potentially causing the remaining reinforcements to waver and flee, which can significantly turn the tide of a difficult defensive encounter.
