Tactics[]
- Use 2-3 level 3 Aviators to both allow towers to target Camouflaged Enemies and act as early defense. This will allow Railgunners and low-level Commandos to target Ghosts and Wraiths.
- It is likely necessary to use Phaser to take down Grim as it has an extremely high health pool of 700,000.
- Level 4+ Tubers will make it much easier to clear out hordes of Graveyard Zombies spawned by Reapers and Haunted Knights, so that your Railgunners and Phasers can target high health enemies that are being shielded.
- Commander is extremely useful due to its Call to Arms ability as well as its ability to generally increase fire-rate. DJ is also useful in this regard. When combined, these towers' passive and active effects can more than double the damage per second.
- Recommended to have 3-4 level 3 Commanders to use Call to Arms rapidly.
- Flamethrowers or Hallowboomers placed in bends can slow down enemies considerably.
- Grim can kill towers, so when one got killed, quickly sell it and replace with a new one.
- Many level 4 Railgunners are recommended to take down Wendigos.
Trivia[]
- The thumbnail for this event shows Jack on it, yet Jack does not appear in this event.
- However, this may be a reference to the fact that a level 5 Graveyard can spawn Jacks.
- Planet3arth has said that this is the hardest event in Tower Battles history.
- However, this event is only the 2nd most beaten event with 26276 players beating it only beaten by Halloween 2017 with 17202 players ever beating the event.
- This event has the highest base health of any event, being 500.
- To enter a queue you need to have 40 wins, this blocks new players from joining the queue and filters it to allow only advanced players.
- Players with less than 40 wins who were in a party with the host being able to enter the even could join this way, however it patched shortly after release.
- The Halloween event has its own unique ragdoll animation when a player dies (resets).
- If looked at closely when respawning, one may see the spawn platform..
- There is a bug that lets you enter the event, if you do, the event will not start but you will have 1000 cash and can still place towers, the text that usually says the Wave number now says "Game will not being [Event Inactive]", "being" is supposed to be "begin" but Planet misspelled it, Even though using this method there are no zombies, but you can still place towers, if you rejoin you will simply have 0 cash and can't do anything.
