Conquering the Void: A Comprehensive Guide to Beating the Void in Tower Battles

Beating the Void in Tower Battles is no small feat. This formidable boss, appearing as the final challenge on Wave 40, boasts a staggering 500,000 HP and several debilitating abilities designed to crush your defenses. However, with the right strategy and tower composition, victory is within reach. The key to defeating the Void lies in understanding its strengths and weaknesses, and then exploiting those vulnerabilities. Primarily, you will need to focus on high damage output, crowd control to minimize damage taken from its abilities, and using towers that are effective against heavy armor.

The Void is incredibly slow, allowing you ample time to focus fire if your towers are placed appropriately. However, this slowness is counterbalanced by its extreme health pool and three dangerous offensive capabilities, which can quickly overwhelm unprepared players. The Void will consume the map and towers along its path. Any towers consumed by it will be deleted, and it will spawn Voided enemies. Consequently, effective tower placement and rapid destruction are paramount.

Strategic Tower Deployment for Void Annihilation

High Damage Towers

First and foremost, focus on towers that deliver massive amounts of damage per second (DPS). Towers like the Phaser are particularly effective due to their high damage against the Void. If you have the resources, using multiple maxed out Phasers will provide an excellent source of damage. While the Golden Commando and Exterminator are very strong, they are most effective when zombies are being distracted by other towers.

Crowd Control Towers

While the Void itself is slow, its abilities can cause significant problems if not dealt with correctly. Towers that provide crowd control, such as the Flamethrower, are useful for slowing down the multitude of enemies, making them easier targets for your high DPS towers. The Flamethrower also applies burn damage over time.

Effective Tower Upgrades

Prioritize upgrades that significantly boost your towers’ damage output and range. Upgrading the Phaser to its max level should be a priority due to its effectiveness. Also ensure all damage towers have max range, to ensure they can attack for as long as possible. Remember, every shot counts, so ensure your towers can attack the Void from the furthest distance possible.

Tower Placement

Tower placement is critical for maximizing damage. Place your high DPS towers along the longest path the Void must take, creating a “kill zone.” Since the Void is slow, this allows them to attack for as long as possible. Ensure that crowd control towers are interspersed within this kill zone to slow down any voided enemies and reduce damage to your high DPS towers. Avoid placing too many towers within the path of the Void as they will be consumed.

Teamwork

If playing in a team, ensure communication and planning. Designate roles for each player, some focusing on heavy damage while others handle crowd control and enemy management. Focus fire on the Void to bring it down as quickly as possible. This will help to reduce the amount of enemies it will spawn.

Preperation

Plan ahead to make sure you have sufficient towers and money before Wave 40 begins. Build up an adequate amount of high DPS towers and crowd control to make sure the void goes down as fast as possible. Saving is important to ensure you will have enough money to upgrade your towers.
