The Tuber is a splash-damaging ground tower that can be purchased for 800 with a placement cost of $800.
Overview[]
The Tuber launches explosive rockets that deals 4 damage to the target it directly hits and 4 splash damage to all enemies within its 3.2 stud splash radius. At level 1, it fires once per 4.3 seconds, dealing 0.93 direct and splash damage per second against a single target. The Tuber specializes in crowd control, capable of wiping out clusters of Mysteries, Boss1s, and Lavas during early to mid-game defense.
