Modifiers that cost you
These three make the run easier, and the game charges you for it. Telescopic and Tag Team in particular are steep — Tag Team gives you a second heroic but takes 65% of your payout.
| Modifier | Type | Tix & XP | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tag Team | Hero | -65% | Allows you to place 2 heroic towers. |
| Telescopic | Tower | -15% | Increases tower range by 30%. |
| Inflation | Game | -25% | Increases the wave and kill income by 50%. |
| Fortified | Game | -10% | Sets base health to 150. |
How to actually use this
The play is to stack the bonus modifiers that do not break your loadout. If you are running a support-light setup anyway, Unsupportive is a free +20%. If your damage sits in one heroic, No Heroes is a bad trade at +25%. Enemy modifiers are the safest stack on a low-star map — take a one or two-star map from the map list, pile on Double Trouble and Hyper, and you are earning at a much higher rate on a board you were never going to lose.
