The Hallowboomer is a splash-damaging, incendiary event tower that was previously rewarded upon triumphing the Halloween 2018 event and later, purchasable for 750 during the Halloween 2023 event. It has a placement cost of $600.
Overview[]
The Hallowboomer wields a pumpkin launcher shoots a flaming pumpkin that explodes on impact, dealing splash damage and igniting all enemies in its 3 stud splash radius. At level 1, a Hallowboomer fires a pumpkin every 3.08 seconds, which deals 1 damage and 1 burn damage. Burning enemies will have their movement speed reduced by 40% for the duration they were set on fire. Unlike the Flamethrower, the Hallowboomer will continue to target enemies regardless of if they are burning or not.
