“Damage increases over time when attacking the same target. It may only attack one enemy, but it sees them all.”
The Inferno Tower is a building that belongs to the Building: Inferno Tower Modifier. It can also be spawned by the Battle Machine. It spawns a single-target ranged building with moderate hitpoints, very low damage, and very high attack speed. The Inferno Tower deals more damage the more it attacks a singular target. The Inferno Tower takes the appearance of a tall, narrow building made of iron, standing on top of a lava pool surrounded by rocks, with a glowing orange lens on top and two blue spike-like structures on the sides.
Strategy[]
- As a medium-ranged building, the Inferno Tower is best used in the second row from the enemy's side so that it can cover the maximum area possible, being able to attack the last row, which is useful against
Assassin troops, while still allowing something to tank for it in the first row. It should be placed on the central hexes for maximum range. The Inferno Tower's very low damage is mitigated by its very high attack speed, permitting it to rapidly increase its damage and severely cripple enemy targets in seconds. - Because it targets the closest target in its range, the Inferno Tower can be used to defeat problematic tanky troops, like Valkyrie, P.E.K.K.A., Mega Knight, Golden Knight, Skeleton King, and Monk, before they are able to get a lot of value. On the other hand, those troops can be used to give the Inferno Tower enough time so that it can defeat enemy tanky troops.
- The Tesla is a great pair with the Inferno Tower, provided that the player is using the Battle Machine and managed to get a Tesla. Because it hides itself, it won't be ad vulnerable to enemy units, while its 1-tile range allows it to emerge just before a melee troop is able to reach the Inferno Tower, where both it and the Tesla can damage the unit. The Tesla will also be good for clearing frailer troops do that the Inferno Tower focuses on the more durable ones.
- Because of the Inferno Tower's very low damage, it is weak to swarms. As such, Witch, especially when the
Superstar trait is active, will be able to distract the Inferno Tower with waves of Skeletons long enough so that the enemy either destroys it or defeats the player's troops, rendering it useless. As such, splash damage cards, like Valkyrie, Wizard, Princess, and Executioner can clear the Witch's Skeletons, allowing the Inferno Tower to focus on more durable units.
- Because they target the furthest enemy in their range, Princess and Mortar can be positioned in such a way that they target the Witch first, defeating her before she can accumulate Skeletons to distract the Inferno Tower.
