I don't even look at the video/understand what's going on but wtf the banter in this video is so good. All the daycare lore is so funny idk. Imagining NL in casual day to day scenarios is just so funny to me. I imagine him as this silent, calm dude that doesn't want to bother anyone but will tear them apart on stream LOL
Lookout is my favourite tower by a mile. It suits my playstyle so much, because you just get it upgraded to high hell then spam ballistas all around it. That, plus the -1 base damage for +level% crit chance is huge, because lookouts add their damage AND crit chance to the enemy in question My most reliable build is just lookouts + ballistas, and universities, with all the upgrades focusing on DOTs, crit chance, and range
NL, splits don't actually increase the number of enemies. The same amount of enemies spawn, they are simply divided between multiple paths. This means that more splits can be a good thing since it lets you stagger enemies better than a single path.
By the way, the priorities have been changed do that the order DOES matter now. I know it didn't at the time this was recorded since there are some visual things that were changed in the recent patch that were still the old version in the video. I just wanted to point it out to anyone who didn't know there was a patch or didn't read the patch notes.
I think the problem with the radars is that they had poor priority, you could see them fly in but something would kill it before they could start firing. The best targeting for them is probably most health as most of the time the enemy will still be alive by the time the biplanes reaches the target
I think maybe an issue is that you don't spread out the damage enough, in terms of along the route. For long periods of time, only your long-range towers fire and often they don't apply a dot. Then by the time the hordes get to your kill box, they overwhelm it. I think a few early poison sprayers/shredders could have helped a lot. Otherwise, you're really slamming this game. Are you going to try double lanes?
I feel like the airplanes would do better with a priority other than progress. Progress makes it so that it keeps having to change directions as its targets are killed. Most Health or Shield would be a more consistent target, I think
Bummer. Was a interesting map. I found you really need to have some heavy hitters on your last mile. Can't count on a small number of spread out turrets to catch everything, no matter how high you upgrade them. The last stretch before the tower needs to be a death zone.
I got a straight razor for my head. It is a delicate experience to say the least. I love the closeness of the shave, but I have to be completely prepared for it. Not like a, wake up last minute before going out type thing.
@@cooperschmidt6849 I've only been playing since post-nerf, as far as I can tell it's all but unuseable. Takes too much mana, has too little range, too slow fire rate, does basically 0 damage without an excessive amount of money pumped into it.
Have you played "for the king" yet, it's something that you might enjoy. Ftk is one of those games that you think you're doing great and then all of a sudden you die because you're not prepared enough, even though you thought you were a massive tank and unkillable!
On my third run I got a single loop that cut off after maybe 15-20 levels, couldn’t use any universities since no occult shrines spawned so I just loaded up on a couple obelisks and poison sprayers at a choke point and about 50 mana banks. Died at level 44 because I didn’t have too many upgrades
Only thing I wish is you could copy paste tower settings or something. Finally did a ballista only run, and it's painful having to micro manage all the turrets when there's like 3 kinds you want really.
what kind of electric razor do you have that gets that close? all the ones I've used have left noticeable stubble. And yes my shave does need to be close, I'm in the marines and they require us to shave once a day
Radar shreds every single Oogie which is their main goal. Try and use frost tower a lot more as it holds the line long enough for your dots to shred enemies on wave 40 where the difficulty spikes. Looking forward to you acing this and trying out double lane Ryan
Sensitive skin gang represent. I had to stop using an actual razor and start just using a face trimmer for the "close enough" look. Also the yoyo thing was a set of weights on a spring so when the yoyo was spinning fast enough they were disengaged and the yoyo rotated freely. When it slowed down they clamped and it came back up the string.
Making it illegal to have your keys in your possession eliminates a lot of wiggle room for drunk drivers who might park their car if they see police and then claim that they hadn't been driving but had been parked the whole time.
Exactly. I have no clue how it works in Canada, but in Sweden the law is that you arent allowed in the driver seat, keys or no keys. The point being is that its eliminates any discussion or grey area if you where driving the vehicle or just stood still etc etc, if the other person in the car was driving and you switch places just before the cop arrivied to your window, or any bullshit like that. You will be found guilty just sitting in the driver seat, the keys may be on the Moon or behind Das Kapital in the library (next to the secret tunnel hatch), does not matter. Which I think is great. If you gonna sleep in your car, sleep in the backseat for crying out loud. Or passanger, more leg room even!
What you said about drunk people falling asleep in your car and getting a dui is 100% true I got a dui like that, I think if you put your keys in your trunk it’s not an issue but it’s really dumb that that’s a law
Ya know, We say “mile a minute” to mean very fast, but thats only 60mph. I mean 5 miles above the highway speed limit is fast but it aint that fast ya know
I’ve got the CLASSIC NL dilemma of wanting to watch him play this but currently being slightly better than him so getting frustrated by every mistake he makes... Seasoned viewers will know that if I decide to skip videos for like a week suddenly when I watch again he’ll be going for top 10 on a daily mode and dusting me completely haha
I gotta say every time I take my lunch break at work, I’ve been looking for your uploads of this esoteric, yet strangely compelling game. Poggy. Also you should really prioritize your towers. And you should play halo infinite again.

These rogue tower videos are doing very well it seems. Might see these some more going forward and I think it’s great.
A configurable default target setting would be nice.
Control groups would be REALLY nice. With hotkeys, like an RTS.
So would a "just spend all my money on upgrades spread out over all the towers I don't care who gets them game, please just save me the micro" button.
I'm glad you'll be moving this series into youtube. You'll enjoy the game a lot more on your own; pog.

NL gaining mana while using 1 poison sprayer "It's using too much."
how many times do we gotta teach you this lesson old man?!
1 level 50 tower >>> 50 level 1 tower
You're teaching him the wrong lesson old man.

Aoe for the choke points where they "overwhelm" is what you want
Also, he did have a few early sprayers and shredders
Also, radars are Oogie-melters. Setting them to priority is such an egg-move.
His main problem was lack of mana banks
Or you just minmax a certain tower which will bring you very far
What you went through at the crosswalk is my everyday! It's like I need permission from the cars coming to get across.
I feel like the airplanes would do better with a priority other than progress. Progress makes it so that it keeps having to change directions as its targets are killed. Most Health or Shield would be a more consistent target, I think
It's also anti-synergy with shredders, which want some early units to proc them so the saw goes on a journey
Rogue Tower is big pog but game could def use some quality of life improvements

NL you should try using the look out towers on the +5 it probably helps more in the long run
The amount of zooming in and then immediately zooming back out has me thinking this is an early 2000s music video.
this made me realize how much I miss the zoom in zoom out days of EU4 hahaha
The analytics on Rogue Tower are insane, all hail the algorithm
Dude, I was just thinking to myself, I hope there is another Rogue Tower video to watch!

Hey NL! You should set most of the targeting to most health for the big towers. Then a few to most armor and shields. It doesn’t have to be that bad
The pogs are rolling with this one

NL's really reminding us all why you shouldn't break the law while you're breaking the law.
Buffs poison damage. Neglects to get mana to use poison towers.
Those airplanes seem so ineffective
When they're set to most (stat) priority, the airplanes absolutely shit on anything they shoot at.
1 rogue tower episode a week is great but 2 would be absolutely amazing
