Does anyone how many bombers will drop a sword? and an archer? how about a miner? (any other units you know too)

No, I am not ranting that 3 bombers costs more than a sword, because its obviously not smart to blow up one sword :)

I was faced by a guy going mass swords (to defend and fight over centre tower while he made a giant army I think) He must have had ...oh... what looked like 50 but was actually a lot lot less, about 3 rows so maybe 18 of em? - quite a sight in raging red :)

I pulled them to a temptingly small group of juggerknights then when they were pulled in nice and tight sent in the bombsquad and cleared them all insta-kill :)

But to be sure I used overkill, about 8 bombers (it was still economically sound, the cost was only about 4 swords, but I got numbers beyond counting) didnt want to let him survive and beware my plan.

So that made me wonder, how many sucessful bombs would actually kill various targets.

Obviously, making it to them is a different issue, and a few spare would probably be a smart move.


Seems like a great defence for early game if he has a group of swords on your tower while your not able to use other units too :)

5 Bombers for a sword, if you use 4, he will live with about 1% health.
3(maybe 4) bombers for an Archidon.
4 bombers for an un-upgraded miner. 5 For an upgraded one.
Takes over 80 to kill an un-upgraded statue.

You if you upgrade your statue, I believe, it takes over 160 bombers to kill it.

WOW! So resilence doubles your statue hp? Then that's good. i always get it anyways (as a defensive move), but i never knew how good it was until now.

As I understood it, resilience doubles or increases greatly, your statues MAXIMUM health and the health you currently have.
For example, let's say, the statue has 100 health normally at maximum, not upgraded. You took some damage, you have 64/100.
You buy resilience, and it increases 100 to 150. That's a 50% increase. Well that would increase the 64 to 96 (Just a guess really).
Also, I don't know, for a fact, that it doubles, that was always just my guess.

Hi reader,

So it doubles? According to Tecness2... it must be very well worth it!

NOT true. A single bomber can kill an Archidon and Sword I've tried it. Actually BUY Chaos before you make any rash claims...

A single bomber, can not kill anything at full health. I'm pretty sure, it can't even kill another bomber.

1 bomber CAN kill an archidon and a swordwrath, by exploding them when they're not in full health.

>.> damn you bladed fire (jk). I never thought of that. BUTTTTTT I have a plan to counter it. 2 shots from an archidon blows the bomber up. So kite it once and you live. Or, just separate your archidon and sword lol. He can only kill one :D
