To be fair, calling BEST HANDLER "support" is a stretch, the thing's full on destruction power and synergizes with nothing but itself - that being the shtick, synergizing only with itself.
I mean I would say it is. It has been buffed a lot but on release the meg was only good at dealing with moabs so moab damage support. the giga stomp is a stun and the bottom path is nothing but support with no damage.
i think, since the engineer paragon is a support tower still, that it should start doing ultraboost ramp-up to all other towers within its range

What is the point of the Engineer Paragon? It loses its one support skill, the one required for ultimate Monkeyopolises (I made a 13 Farms Monkeyopolis in Sulfur Spring, it was nice).
ninjakiwi had a quota to fill and rushed out a paragon, thats my conspiracy theory about it

@@senpai2.054 Given they could have done the Glue Gunner Paragon, a much simpler and proper option 😂 The only true differences between it and other Glue Gunners should be: 1- glue is permanent 2- glue soaks through blimp layers 3- gets an 'Acid Pool' attack when not directly attacking, and its glue pools hit Camo. It would be SO NICE 🐵🔫💦🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈 No, don't really need to boost the damage. Boost its SUPPORT UTILITY to the max - screen-wide damage + slow + stun.
When I started playing this I saw we had engineer and i went "Why there is no support only mode? i plaeyd bloons monkey city, these fellas got the early game handled" :D
I remember when the game first released and there was only three monkeys and support the alchemist wasn’t released hell Churchill wasn’t even released yet. I love how much the game is grown.
If one is going for speed with deploying the bank, I would have just bought the one farm with the starting cash, then with earnings + Benji getting a 0-3-0 bank ASAP, upgrade to 2-3-0, then start building out the other farms after so the bank can accumulate money on interest sooner and there's no money lost with having to sell another bought farm. The bank's strength in early game is its compounding interest every round, so the sooner you attain it the more profitable it will be in the early game.
but it starts really slow and since you can deposit, you can just skip this slow phase with normal farming. What he did is, or at least was, the best farming start irrc. But i don't really stay up to date with farming strats.

Hey Ethan, can we get a video explaining all these Banana Banking Operations that are DEMANDED (not just REQUIRED) for elite bosses? I still can only think of farming in terms of: Is there no or too little water for 21 boats? Top path + 1 bottom path for autocollecting. Is there enough water for 21 boats? Get 21 boats and then fill the map with bottom path farms and then resell as space is needed for Bomber Aces Spam.
We need them to release a new tier of difficulty with a difficulty up from Hard, and move C.H.I.M.P.S and Half Cash there, as well as Support Monkeys Only and maybe some other crazy new mode.
Honestly it’s pretty easy, tier one and two just needs a few spikes and a megalodon, then tier 3 more spam, and tier 4 and 5 just get engi paragon and its easy
I'm having the same problem, I have no tower that give buffs, just the paragon, 2 spike factories and 2 of the beast handlers, one tyrannosaurus and one Megalodon and he keeps healing
@ same. Exact same. I commented on another video and they told me to ditch the permaspike, and I did and it helped, as it healed less, but still healed a few big times.
The faster generation at the start of every round from smart spikes counts as a buff. If you used call of arms or homeland, then that will also heal it
If you followed Ethan Reid’s gameplay exactly, then he explicitly said what was healing Lych: the cleansing foam engineer. Similar to smart spikes, the first few seconds cause cleansing foam to shoot foam faster for the first few seconds, which heals lych
I'd love to do this challenge, but I'm like 70k-80k experience of the Engineer Paragon and I have like 60k exp on the beast handler and every 5th yet to be unlocked, so I figured this will be impposible (for me) without them with you know the 200% boss health and all the other modifiers😅 There's a challenge for someone really good at the game! Try this challenge without the Engineer Paragon and any of the Beast handler's 5th tiers!😆
I beat this first try on elite, first time ive beat an elite boss first attempt. I didnt even use an paragon for tier 3, super mines and megalodon was enough lol
its impossible because of the money required for a hero to be viable, and the fact that they fixed the bug where engineer paragon could damage the support skull. as of now, military only is the only single tower category that can beat dreadbloon (with hero ofc)
So u just causally used a strat noone would ever use in a boss fight, completly off every other strategy just before u went to work and didnt wonder at all☠️☠️☠️ Bro why this comment😂
@GaBeKool exactly, don't have the attention span to check out good strategies and just wing it. The only strat I kinda follow is farming otherwise I stand no chance. Besides that I accept to fail a lot on the harder challenges cuz lazy¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I managed to beat Elite with just a degree 45 engineer paragon. Bought it towards the end of tier 3 and it managed to solo tiers 4 and 5, which honestly I was pretty surprised by.
I see...I had a degree 67 Engineer for T5 plus Megladon and Trex and a bunch of Spike Factories (no permaspike for draining) and I beat elite by a HAIR. Mid round 139 and Lych was about to exit the map. Would love to know how a mid 40 degree Engineer managed to do that.
@@gotseoul123 Just did another run to record and upload. I only uploaded the tier 5 boss but I can try uploading the full run as well if you'd like. For reference, I bought the engineer paragon on round 91 so it was fully overclocked by tier 5. All I can think of for why it worked was that I was constantly re-placing the turrets right next to the track for the extra explosion damage, and did my best to kill the resurrected MOABs as quick as I could so lych was invincible for less time. Also maybe not having a carpet of spikes helped the rounds take longer or something? Not sure if that really impacted it at all.
When the game was released we only had 3 towers in support category and now we're up to 5. Maybe it's time they officially added support only mode?
Would love that to be honest
Maybe if we get another one, since it's basically just beast/engi everytime. It's pretty boring other than it's for a challange like this
They already have the achievement for support only.
3? I know beast handler is late, but did they release the engineer late too?
@@SleepoCrow yep, engineer is released later
To be fair, calling BEST HANDLER "support" is a stretch, the thing's full on destruction power and synergizes with nothing but itself - that being the shtick, synergizing only with itself.
Yep, because SPIKE FACTORY synergizes with so many towers, including itself.
I mean I would say it is. It has been buffed a lot but on release the meg was only good at dealing with moabs so moab damage support. the giga stomp is a stun and the bottom path is nothing but support with no damage.
@@the_alpha_arachnid4831 if stun and push back on high damage towers = support class then Ninja is support at that point
@fesserlippenchipful spike is more-so support because it functions as an extra hp wall against bloons and less so than it actually supporting
Me when the best support tower in the game isn’t even labeled a support by the game!
Imf farming for tier 1 sounds really cool, as just a fun and specialised way to boost early income to really help your farming after!
i think, since the engineer paragon is a support tower still, that it should start doing ultraboost ramp-up to all other towers within its range

00:17 we're gonna what on the tier 2?
BUST!
😩
😫🎉
Someting like that
ayo
I reckon with one more damaging support tower, “Support Only” would be a totally viable game mode for the base game!
When I started playing this I saw we had engineer and i went "Why there is no support only mode? i plaeyd bloons monkey city, these fellas got the early game handled" :D
I remember when the game first released and there was only three monkeys and support the alchemist wasn’t released hell Churchill wasn’t even released yet. I love how much the game is grown.
wasn't alchemist in the game from the beginning?
@ no it was released in the first 10 updates though I can’t remember which one
...alch was in v1.0 for BTD6.
I know that mortar, engi, dartling, beast handler, and mermonkey were all added. If I missed any, tell me.
Side note, ice monkey should be in magic, and ninja should be in primary.
the lych soul doesn't scale with the boss hp modifier, instead for some reason it scales with the moab hp modifier
lol bird path is disabled cause of the bug
They do that a lot for bosses. If there is a bug they will just take the path out to stop it.
Because spike factories weren't banned for this challenge, after beating it I was genuinely confused why the boss was so easy.
If You boost the megalodon enough, you can destroy everything with it. I took out the bloonarous which has more health with it in elite mode
If one is going for speed with deploying the bank, I would have just bought the one farm with the starting cash, then with earnings + Benji getting a 0-3-0 bank ASAP, upgrade to 2-3-0, then start building out the other farms after so the bank can accumulate money on interest sooner and there's no money lost with having to sell another bought farm.

I hope this is to show that the next paragon is a support tower, a paragon spike factory or beast handler would go CRAZY hard
Yup... Only the Engineer, Banana Farms, Monkey Villages, and Spike Factory's... Am I missing anyone....? Oh yeah and Ben!
Top path beast handler is BUSTED in boss events they buffed his damage and it's insane
We need them to release a new tier of difficulty with a difficulty up from Hard, and move C.H.I.M.P.S and Half Cash there, as well as Support Monkeys Only and maybe some other crazy new mode.
3:30, 203 is a bit better when under influence of monkey town i think
the really need to give the engi paragon the ability to either ultra boost other paragons or at least use a stronger version of the overclock ability
Honestly it’s pretty easy, tier one and two just needs a few spikes and a megalodon, then tier 3 more spam, and tier 4 and 5 just get engi paragon and its easy
My lych just kept healing. Got rid of perma spike and all the villages and the damn thing keeps healing!! Not sure what I did wrong.
I'm having the same problem, I have no tower that give buffs, just the paragon, 2 spike factories and 2 of the beast handlers, one tyrannosaurus and one Megalodon and he keeps healing
@ same. Exact same. I commented on another video and they told me to ditch the permaspike, and I did and it helped, as it healed less, but still healed a few big times.

There's a challenge for someone really good at the game! Try this challenge without the Engineer Paragon and any of the Beast handler's 5th tiers!😆
How many times can Engy paragon self overclock? Perhaps it would make more sense to get it at round 80 even if it was a lower degree?
You only need the beast master shark. If it's too difficult you can add a 2-5-0 spike and gg.
This boss event was so fun
I beat this first try on elite, first time ive beat an elite boss first attempt. I didnt even use an paragon for tier 3, super mines and megalodon was enough lol
For those trying least cash
The trick is discounts and megladon
1,116 views in 27 minutes, bro is viral
Made it past tier 1 and 2 with spike storm and deadly spikes
Support only dreadbloon when???
No it’s impossable
Well if counting hero’s it’s possible
Becuase hero’s count as a non tower class
its impossible because of the money required for a hero to be viable, and the fact that they fixed the bug where engineer paragon could damage the support skull. as of now, military only is the only single tower category that can beat dreadbloon (with hero ofc)
Me when I don’t get the obvious joke
ninja kiwi prolly saw mackanrules's vid
How did he put farm there???
Support only is hard ngl😭🙏
i almost beat the t4 with no benjamin and no t5's (i don't have benjamin and t5's for engi and beast handler)
I defeated this boss quickly before going to work and didn't even notice that I could only use support towers till you dropped this video
Ayo dont talk nonsense everyone notices the moment u load in☠️
@GaBeKool honestly just wasn't paying a lot of attentions due to the time constraints. Did find the tower selection odd though

Except I used IMF loan spam
I beat it but i don't have benjamin
they banned the giant condor lol
Hola
Hola
isn't ultraboosted 520 engie better than the paragon?
No not even close
@adambomb611 that may be the case, but it's certainly worth to have alongside it, as it does way more damage than the paragons of power MK
Wouldn't Lych just drain the ultraboost though?
@@gotseoul123yes and heal himself
520 engi is better than the paragon when it got all the buff and debuff possible for it to be stronger otherwise it worse

its so damn boring. there is no creativity to it. Complete waste of a boss event.
