                                                                    Chapter One, Introduction                        

     


Hello everyone, HighestIncome here. I announced 'Legion TD Mega Book' and here it is, overall Strategical Guide or "Legion TD Mega Book"due to it's   size. I have to admit  that it was hard to write down everything and for all players, no matter what skill level they are, but i think i succeeded and i hope this will be useful for all of you. I started writing this Strategical Book in order to make overall look on Legion Tower Defense Mega 3.41 and to collect everything i learned in the past 5000-6000 total games that i played in one topic. In this book you will find everything you can find in Legion Mega, but systematically explained so everyone can understand it's purpose and usage. This book will unite all guides into one, so you don't need to search for guides and thoughts separately, here you will have everything important about Legion Mega that you need to make this awesome game even more enjoyable for you and your friends at one place. Keep in mind that this Book was written only for version 3.41, so some parts may not be correct for other Legion or Legion Mega versions. Before we start with actual guides/book, i will write short  Legion Mega story, so in this part you won't 'learn' anything, it's just my thoughts and experiences about the game:


Legion TD Mega 3.41 is relatively popular Warcraft3: The Frozen Throne map made by HuanAK. Honestly i started playing this map because my friends don't like DotA 1, so we needed to find game that we all like to play and we found Legion Tower Defense Mega Mega. It is very complex game, mainly based on maths and strategies, but also knowledge. If you have heard for Legion, but you didn't play it, i recommend you to try it, because map is flawless and also fun to play. It's not easy to find right place to play this game, and that was first problem i faced when i started playing this. There are lots of servers where you can play Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne online, but i think Garena and Battle.net are best two. So if you have original copy (valid cd-key) of Warcraft 3, i recommend you to play on Battle.net and if you don't, Garena is probably best place to play. Of course, this map is not perfect, it needs some changes and balance adjustments. In the end of this short story i want to point out that there are lots of versions of this map, some of them are official, some of them are fake versions, anyway version 3.41 is the best in my opinion. Version 3.5(B4) is also good, but i don't like Heroes in it, they seem too overpowered to me.


I will split Book into 'Gameplay' Sectors that you can find and focus on in Legion Mega, so it's easier for me to write and easier for you to read.



Gameplay sectors are: Builders, Towers/Tower Upgrades, Income, Town, Barracks/Advanced Barracks, Farms, The King, Builds, Placement, Focus, Mid-Builds, Reroll/change builder, Creeps/levels, Summons, Arena Fights, Anti-stuck/Holy_Light Builder Tools and Game Modes. I will talk and explain everything about every gameplay sector i mentioned. This will all be separated, so if you don't have time to read full book, you can find single sector that you are interested in and read that part only.








                                                                    Chapter Two, Game Sectors




1) First sector, Builders:

There are 15+2 builders (races) in Legion, and all of them have unique towers from tier 1-6 (+2 are Prophet and Hybrid, which don't have their own towers). Tower tiers can be described as tower 'level', so the cheapest one is tier 1 and the most expensive one is tier 6. Builder list is: Beast, Mech, Nature, Shadow, Element, Ghost, Demi-Human, Marine, Prophet, Hybrid, Arctic, Goblin, Paladin, Elf, Orc and Undead (i didn't mention Mercenary, that race will be complitely removed from this book because i think it is imbalaced and should be removed From Legion Mega Too). You choose or get (depending on game mode) builder at beginning of every game. Prophet and Hybrid are special as i mentioned, and they are also two most played builders online. It  is also nice to say that on builder selector, you have '?' sign, which will give you a random builder. Lets see pictures of all builders: 



  
1. Arctic Builder                                                   2. Beast Builder                                                 3. Demi-Human Builder  


  
4. Element Builder                                             5. Elf Builder                                                        6. Ghost Builder  


  
7. Goblin Builder                                                 8. Hybrid Builder                                              9. Marine Builder                                       


  
10. Mech Builder                                               11. Nature Builder                                             12. Paladin Builder


  
13. Prophet Builder                                           14. Shadow Builder                                          15. Undead builder





16. Orc Builder
 


2) Second sector, Towers/Tower upgrades:

Towers are units that you build to fight against spawning creeps in Legion in order to defend your King. Every tower can be upgraded once or even two times. Tower abilities are unique abilities that some towers have, but also there are towers with no abilities. Tower list is: Tuskarr, Frost Wolf, Ice Troll, Polar Bear, Wandigoo, Young Frost Dragon, Specter, Wanderer, Phantom, Outcast, Appartion, Dark Priest, Colt, Novice, Sentry, Prisoner, Druid, Moon Guard, Orc Warrior, Orc Warlock, Raider, Young Witch Doctor, Wyvern, Orc Warchief, Goblin Sciencist, Servant, Tribesman, Medicine Man, Harlot, Minotaur, Acolyte, Ghoul, Meat Wagon, Necromancer, Zombie, Guardian of death, Land Mine, Geomancer, Machine Turret, Flying Machine, Goblin Alchemist, Steamroller, Hatchling, Egg Sack, Bottom Feeder, Mermaid, Komodo, Sea Giant, Peasant, Archer, Footman, Priest, Knight, Dragonhawk, Gnoll Warrior, Ogre Basher, Harpy, Troll Fighter, Grizzly, Spawn Of Dragon, Peewee, Infantry, Captain, Tempest, Cyborg, Neotank, Ent, Ranger, Sprite, Tree of travel, Halfbreed, Yggdrasil, Bone Warrior, Carrion Spitter, Gateguard, Overseer, Nightmare, Lord of Death, Proton, Aqua Spirit, Watcher, Mudman, Disciple and Seer of darkness. There are also four Mercenary towers, but i won't list them or talk about them because, in my opinion, they are overpowered and should be removed from Legion Mega. So lets make overview and talk about every single tower, but before we start, i will give you brackets () meanings:


LHP,MHP,HHP,FHP and UHP: This means Light armored health points, Medium armored health points, Heavy armored health points, Fortified armored health points and Unarmored health points respectively. So this basically represents how much health points tower has and which type is it's armor. Every armor type is different and this determine how much percentage of damage of which attack type every unit takes. So lets first take a look at armor types:


1) Light Armor type: Takes 130% from piercing, 110% from magic, 90% from normal and 90% from siege attack type.
2) Medium Armor type: Takes 90% from piercing, 80% from magic, 120% from normal and 90% from siege attack type.
3) Heavy Armor type: Takes 80% from piercing, 120% from magic, 90% from normal and 90% from siege attack type.
4) Fortified Armor type: Takes 70% from piercing, 70% from magic, 80% from normal and 125% from siege attack type.
5) Unarmored Armor type: Takes 100% from all attack types.



PDMG, MDMG, NDMG, SDMG and CDMG: This means Piercing damage type, Magic damage type, Normal damage type, Siege damage type and Chaos damage type, respectively. So this represents which attack type particular unit has. Lets now see percentages for attack/damage types:


1) Piercing Damage type: Deals 130% to light, 90% to medium, 80% to heavy and 70% to fortified armor type.
2) Magic Damage type: Deals 110% to light, 80% to medium, 120% to heavy and 70% to fortified armor type.
3) Normal Damage type: Deals 90% to light, 120% to medium, 90% to heavy and 80% to fortified armor type.
4) Siege Damage type: Deals 90% to light, 90% to medium, 90% to heavy and 125% to fortified armor type.
5) Chaos Damage type: Deals 100% to all armor types.

This is very important as damage that your units take can be increased or decreased only by their armor type. "AS" means units attack speed. For example if units attack speed is 0.5 this means that unit attack once every 0.5 seconds, or twice per second. And finally "AOE" means Area of effect.


Now lets talk about every single tower in Legion Mega:


1. Tuskarr (95 MHP;16-17 PDMG;1.40 AS): Tuskarr is an Arctic builder tier 1 tower. Very cheap melee unit, but almost useless in X3 mode. Can be upgraded into Tuskarr Spearman (280 MHP; 16-17+12 PDMG; 0.6AS) that is ranged and have Ice Spear ability that slows units that he attacks movement speed by 60%. Also almost useless upgrade, can be used for first boss fight for slow effect.





2. Frost Wolf (200 MHP;21-22 NDMG;1.5AS): Frost Wolf is melee Arctics builder tier 2 tower. It's cheap tower, but still has low HP for X3 mode. It has Bleeding ability that activates when Wolf is under 30% HP, bleeding deals 5 DMG per second and slows target AS by 25%. Can be upgraded to Pandaren (800 MHP; 49-52 NDMG;0.6 AS) which is also melee and has Frost Nova ability that deals 100 spell damage to primary target and 10 AOE damage and applies slow on all affected units. Pandaren is very good early game tower, has nice attack speed and clears early waves easily. It is also good to tank magic waves as level 5 or level 7.





3. Ice Troll (335 MHP; 36-37 MDMG;0.9 AS): Ice Troll is ranged Arctic builder support tier 3 tower. It has Frost Shield aura that gives all other units ability to return percentage (4%) of melee damage they take. Aura has very big AOE so all towers will be under it's effect. Can be upgraded to Ice Troll Shaman (850 MHP; 51-53 MDMG; 0.5 AS) which is also ranged and has same role as Ice Troll, but has better Ice Shield (8%) aura and Cold Attack ability that slows units he attacks movement speed by 50% and attack speed by 15%. Frost Shield  and Ice Shield stack, which means that you should build one Ice Troll Shaman and one Ice Troll and they together will grant total of 12% (4%+8%) melee damage return ability to all your units. Ice Troll Shaman is also good to clear first few levels as he has nice attacks speed.





4. Polar Bear (600 MHP; 45-47 SDMG; 0.8 AS): Polar Bear is melee Arctic builder tier 4 tower. It has two abilities, Bash that has 25% chance to stun target for short duration (1 second) and deal 25 bouns damage and Frost Aura that slows nearby enemy's movement speed by 40%. Can be upgraded to Magnataur (1330 MHP;115-118 SDMG;1.1 AS) which is very powerful melee tower, has nice damage and improved Frost Aura that slows units by 60%. He also has critical strike, 100% chance to deal 1.4 of his base damage, which means that his actual damage is 1.4x117. Magnataur has small attack range (180), so he is always a little behind actual melee towers, which is good because he often doesn't get focused early and is able to apply slow for a long duration on melee waves.





5. Wandigoo (750 HHP; 90-100 NDMG;1.20 AS): Wandigoo is melee Arctic builder tier 5 tower. It is classic tank and his role is to stay in front lines and take most of the damage. It has Evasion ability which gives him 7% chance to evade attack and take 0 damage. It can be upgraded to Ancient Wandigoo (1770 HHP; 173-187 NDMG;1 AS) which is even better tank, with more HP and has better 12% evasion chance. It suffers a bit on ranged magic waves due to his heavy armor, but is good on all other waves.









6. Young Frost Dragon (1360 UHP;140-145 MDMG;1.2 AS): Young Frost Dragon is ranged Arctic builder tier 6 tower. It has Breath Of Frost ability that deals 11 initial damage and 5 damage per second for 6 seconds in decent AOE. Beautiful ability for first few waves as they have low HP. Can be upgraded to Azure Dragon (2195 UHP;232-247 MDMG;1.6 AS) which is slow flying unit with nice base damage. Azure Dragon has Azure armor ability that gives +3 armor and slows units movement and attack speed as they attack the Dragon. Has also Azure Breath ability that does small splash damage and slows units that he attacks in nice AOE. Not the best but very good tier 6 tower with nice abilities and tankability.









7. Specter (52 UHP;4-5 MDMG;0.33 AS): Specter is ranged Ghost builder tier 1 tower. In basic form pretty much useless as all other unupgraded tier 1 towers. Has 15% chance to evade attack and nice attack speed but low damage. Can be upgraded twice, first upgrade is Wraith (230 UHP; 14-20 MDMG; 0.33 AS) that has no evasion as Specter but has Disturb ability which slows one unit for 20% move and attack speed. Second upgrade is called Mercurial (440 UHP; 35-40 MDMG; 0.33 AS) which has a bit more damage and HP, but what is really good about this tower is an ability called Traumatize that slows move speed by 30% and attack speed by 40%. Slow is good on all waves, but best on bosses be it Velen, Maccabeus or Grom'thar.









8. Wanderer (285 MHP;16-20 NDMG;0.9 AS): Wanderer is melee Ghost builder tier 2 tower. It has no abilities, but its good to tank up first few levels. Can be upgraded once, but has two different upgrades. First upgrade is Soul of Hero (835 MHP;67-71 NDMG;1.0 AS) which is nice tank in early game. Has Change Stance ability, that makes him to have less HP but deals more damage. Second upgrade is Soul of Villain (530 LHP;74-80 MDMG;1.2 AS), ranged tower with nice attack damage and Corruption ability that reduces the armor of target that he attacks by 4 for 15 seconds. Villain is very useful on bosses as he reduces armor and often makes good focus.









9. Phantom (475 LHP;0-0 DMG;~ AS): Phantom is ranged Ghost builder tier 3 tower. It is very unusual tower that has no attacks damage, Phantom only casts spell. He has Silent Scream ability/spell that deals 30 spell damage to up to 3 nearby enemy units. It has short cooldown. Can be upgraded to Hell Raiser (580 LHP;0-0 DMG;~ AS) which is actually stronger version of Phantom that deals 55 damage to 3 nearby units and has a bit more HP. Both Phantom and Hell Raiser are very useful on all early and even mid game waves as they attack 3 units at once and also they can tank early levels pretty well.









10. Outcast (1040 HHP;73-80 NDMG;0.85 AS): Again very strange Ghost builder melee tower, although it's tier 4, it looks like classic tier 5 tower and costs about the same as all other tier 5 towers. Has no abilities but tanks well and has good attack damage and speed. Can be upgraded once, into Forsaken One (1705 HHP;105-119 SDMG;0.75 AS) which is probably the most absurd tower in Legion. He has ability called Insanity that gives him a 25% chance to get a 7 seconds lasting buff that gives him +10 armor and +20% damage. With such a high armor he can tank ridiculous amounts of damage and also hits pretty hard. Overall expensive for tier 4, but worth its price.









11. Apparition (665 MHP;118-130 PDMG; 1.0 AS): Apparition is ranged Ghost Builder tier 5 tower. As all other, very strange tower and one of the few ranged tier 5 towers. Has Sickness aura that reduces damage of nearby enemy units by 5%. Sickness aura has big AOE and reduces damage for almost every incoming creep. Can be upgraded to Gravekeeper (1025 MHP;209-219 PDMG;1.1 AS) which is powerful ranged tower that has Despair aura that reduces damage of nearby enemy units by 10%. Sickness and Despair auras stacks, so if you build one Apparition and one Gravekeeper they will grant you total of 15% damage reduction to all incoming creeps. Both Apparition and Gravekeeper are usefull from mid game to late game as they stack their auras and prevent your units to take full damage of incoming waves.









12. Dark Priest (690 UHP; 100-121 MDMG; 0.82 AS): Dark Priest is long ranged Ghost builder tier 6 tower. With only 690 HP and low DPS is almost useless until he gets upgraded. Has  Haunting ability that deals 45 damage a second and slows attack speed for 25% for 8 seconds which can be useful but nothing compared to his ability in upgraded form. Can be upgraded to Meridian (1000 UHP; 196-224 MDMG;1.0 AS) which is also long ranged tower. Has Catastrophe ability that deals 90 damage per second and slows attack speed of victim by 50% for 8 seconds. If unit dies under this buff, it will explode dealing 70 damage to nearby units. Has also Ghost Essence that uses his mana (he has 1100 mana pool) as a shield. Every point of mana negates one damage and it affects 96% of incoming damage. Very useful late game tier 6 unit, specially on level 20.









13. Colt (19 UHP;10-12 PDMG;1.1 AS): Colt is melee Elf builder tier 1 tower. Again, useless tower with useless upgrade in X3 mode. Can be upgraded to Raider (400 UHP; 66-70 PDMG; 1.1 AS) which ranged and also useless. You can build this tower if you are desperate or you need something small for next wave.









14. Novice (210 LHP; 18-20 NDMG;1.0 AS): Novice is melee Elf builder tier 2 tower. Almost useless in its basic form but can be decently upgraded into Crusader (770 HHP;52-60 NDMG;0.8 AS) which is good tank and hits quite hard in early stage of the game.









15. Sentry (350 MHP; 16-24+20 PDMG;1.0 AS): Sentry is ranged Elf builder tier 3 tower. It is decent on early waves and quite tanky for tier 3 tower. Has Magic Missile ability that adds 20 spell damage on each attack. Can be upgraded to Nightsaber (850 MHP; 50-54 PDMG;0.8 AS) which is also ranged. Has Moon Glaive abiltiy that bounces her attack multiple times, damaging few enemies. Very good early-mid game tower, with nice damage and also tanky early on.









16. Prisoner (550 FHP; 41-47 CDMG;0.80 AS): Prisoner is ranged Elf builder tier 4 tower. With nice attack speed and fortified armor, he is very useful for few early levels. Can be upgraded to Maverick (920 MHP; 95-101 CSD;1.0 AS) which is also ranged tower. Maverick has special ability called Mirage that creates an illusion of himself which can fight against incoming creeps. Illusion deals 50% of his original damage and takes 200% of incoming damage. If Maverick dies before illusion does, illusion will disappear. Maverick is excellent early and mid game tower, deals huge damage and tanks well with his illusion. With his medium armor he is the best on magic levels like level 5, 8 and 16.  









17. Druid (815 UHP;76-84 MDMG;1.0 AS): Druid is ranged Elf builder tier 5 tower. Has a decent magic attack damage and Wrath Of Nature ability that deals 100 spell damage to initial target and then bounces up to 5 times to other nearby units dealing reduced damage. Druid is very good on early waves, his Wrath clears early levels fast. Can be upgraded once, but has two different upgrades. First upgrade is Ascedant (1450 UHP;111-121 MDMG;0.8 AS) that is ranged, deals insane damage through all stages of the game and has Faerie Fire ability that reduces armor of units she attacks by 6. With this ability she adds damage to your all other units by reducing enemies armor. Overall insane tower that is strong on every wave. Second upgrade is Sword Mage (1850 MHP;120-130+60 MDMG;0.9 AS) which is melee medium armored tank with good magic damage. Has Enchant Fire ability that gives him +60 damage at beginning of every level and lasts till level ends. Not as good as Ascedant but can be useful in early and mid game as a tank.









18. Moon Guard (1350 HHP;79-89 NDMG;0.6 AS): Moon Guard is melee Elf builder tier 6 tower. She shines in early game with great attack speed and Fan of Knives ability that deals 60 damage to 5 nearby units, which is insane in early game. Can be upgraded to Warden (2670 HHP;70-80 NMDG;0.5 AS) which is also melee tower. Wardens are great in mid game (for levels 14,15 for example), but they lose efficiency a bit in late game. Warden has Coup De Grace ability that gives her 10% evasion and 100% chance to deal double damage on each attack. So actually Wardens damage is 140-160. Overall great mid game tower, with high damage output and also tanky thanks to decent amount of HP and evasion.









19. Orc Warrior (100 UHP; 10-10 NDMG; 1.0 AS): Orc Warrior is melee Orc builder tier 1 tower. He is almost useless in basic form, but can be upgraded twice. First upgrade is into Blood Orc Warrior (500 UHP; 50-50 NDMG;1.0 AS) which is amazing early game tower that has Frenzy ability that increases his attack speed by 30%, but drains 5 HP per second. It lasts for full wave duration so he is attacking 30% faster than 1.0 actually. Second upgrade is into Wolverine (1050 UHP;54-66 CDMG;0.6 AS) that is just insane melee tower. Wolverine has two abilities, first is called Finishing Blow! that gives him 5% chance to kill enemy in one hit (actually he deals 3800-4200 critical stirke). This is ridiculous and works on bosses too, so he can basically lasthit Velens. Second abiltiy is called Bersek that increases his attack speed by 40%-60%-80% when he is under 60%-40%-20% HP respectively. Overall the only (together with Goblin Scientist) really useful tier 1 tower in game, that is strong even in late game because of insane critical. There is a Wolverine-only strategy, when you basically build only Wolverines till late late game, that i will talk about more in Sector 'Builds'.









20. Orc Warlock (260 LHP;42-46 MDMG;1.5 AS): Orc warlock is ranged Orcs builder tier 2 tower. Overall very good tower in all stages of the game, his only weakness is maybe slow attack speed. Has Cripple ability that reduces damage of units that he attacks by 10% for 2 seconds. Can be upgraded to Blood Orc Warlock (660 LHP;116-124 MDMG;1.5 AS) which is also ranged tower with good damage but slow attack speed. Has Corruption ability that reduces targets armor by 4 for 4 seconds. He is good through all game because he adds damage to all your towers by reducing armor of incoming creeps. Has low HP and is the best when is behind some tanky towers.









21. Raider (350 HHP;24-37 NDMG;1.0 AS): Raider is melee Orc builder tier 3 tower. I find him useless due to low damage and attack speed through all game and expensive price too. Has summon Wolf ability that summons Wolf (145 HHP; 14-17 CDMG;1.35 AS) that can tank a bit early on but is as well useless. Can be upgraded into Blood Raider (740 HHP; 72-96 NDMG;1.3 AS) which can summon Blood Wolf (470 HHP; 40-47 CDMG;1.35 AS). Blood Raider can tank a bit in early and mid game, but he is not great by any means. Slow tower that you should only build when you have no other heavy tanks.









22. Young Witch Doctor (400 LHP;40-40 MDMG; 1.0 AS): Young Witch Doctor is supportive Orc builder tier 4 tower. He has Healing Aura that gives +5 HP regeneration per second to all nearby towers. This maybe doesn't seem much, but is actually really great and makes other towers way more tanky. Can be upgraded into Elder Witch Doctor (1100 LHP;106-114 MDMG;1.0 AS) that is stronger form of Young Witch Doctor. Has Greater Healing Aura that gives +10 HP regeneration per second to all nearby towers. He is insane in late game when you have big number of towers, so he heals them all which increases potential HP of your tower mass by epic amount.









23. Wyvern (700 MHP;82-98 PDMG;1.0 AS): Wyvern is ranged Orcs Builder tier 5 tower. Not epic by any means, but has quite good damage output. It is usefull in early game and it loses his efficiency later on. Can be upgraded to Wind Raider (1200 MHP;104-120 PDMG;0.8 AS) which deals quite nice damage but still, try to avoid building this tower if you are not forced to.









24. Orc Warchief (1400 HHP; 190-200 NDMG;1.5 AS): Orc Warchief is slightly ranged (actually melee but has very small range) Orc builder tier 6 tower. Very useful in early game, can tank a lot and has Pulverize ability that gives him 20% chance to deal 30 damage in a circle to all nearby enemy units. This works only with ground units. Can be upgraded to Thrall (2500 FHP;252-268 CDMG;1.0 AS) which is also slightly ranged tower (has a bit more range than Warchief). Thrall is good in mid and late game, but nothing epic. Has Storm Bolt ability that deals 300 spell damage and stuns for 3 seconds one target. This is very good on boss levels, but stun duration is reduced on them.









25. Goblin Scientist (95 LHP;10-11 SDMG;1.0 AS): Goblin Scientist is ranged Demi-Human builder tier 1 tower. In its basic form pretty useless but can be upgraded twice. First upgrade is into Dwarven Engineer (265 LHP;21-27 SDMG;1.0 AS) which is also ranged. Dwarven Engineer has Mortar ability that deals small splash damage to the ground units, which is very good on early waves. He can be further upgraded to Mutant (1600 HHP;209-220 SDMG;1.3 AS) which is also ranged. Mutants have powerful siege damage and are useful in mid and late game. Mutant has Inject Steroids ability which cost 50 lumber to activate in order to increase Mutants damage by 25% and its HP by 20%. So Mutant with steroids has 1920 HP and 252-263 DMG. Overall Goblin Scientist is good early on in form of Dwarven Engineer and also has late game potential in a form of Mutant.









26. Servant (200 MHP;25-35 NDMG;1.5 AS): Servant is melee Demi-Human builder tier 2 tower. With relatively low HP pool it can be only used for first 2-3 waves to tank a bit. Can be upgraded to Slavemaster (770 MHP;65-75 NDMG;1.0 AS) which is decent melee tower for early game. He has Slave trade ability that gives you +3 gold at the end of each round if he survives and +2 gold for each Servant that survives. This doesn't stack, so if you have two Slavemasters and one Servant that survives at the end of level, you will get total of 8 gold, not 10.









27. Tribesman (385 MHP;26-35 PDMG;1.0 AS): Tribesman is ranged Demi-Human builder tier 3 tower. With nice damage and attack speed, he is very good on first few waves. Tribesman has Throw Net ability which is a bit bugged but still works well. What it does is trapping unit under net, keeping it in place, which is nice on melee waves, and useless on ranged waves. When creeps are flying (like lvl 5 for example) it will trap unit and put it next to Tribesman. Can be upgraded into Alpha Male (900 MHP;56-67 PDMG;1.0 AS) which is also ranged tower with two abilities. First ability is the same as Tribesman's, and second ability is Fury that gives him 20% chance to increase attack speed by 60% on every attack (not stackable). Alpha male is awesome in early game (specially on level 10) with his buff for attack speed, but looses his efficiency as mid game goes on.









28. Medicine Man (450 LHP;39-55 MDMG;1.4 AS): Medicine Man is ranged and supportive Demi-Human builder tier 4 tower. Medicine Man has Healing Wave ability that heals one target for 90 HP and bounces up to 4 times. Each bounce heals for 25% less HP. He is useful in early and mid game, but as game goes later, +90 HP makes small difference. Can be upgraded to Oracle which has Guardian Spirit ability. Guardians Spirit gives a buff to units that are next to Oracle (at the beginning of each wave) that  reduces all damage they take by 33%. Oracle is amazing late game tower as he makes all other towers more tanky if placement is correct. (To get Guardian Spirit buff, towers must be built right next to Oracle due to its small area of effect).

















29. Harlot (835 HHP; 100-108 PDMG;1.05 AS): Harlot is melee Demi-Human builder tier 5 tower. With nice HP pool can tank well in early game, but has a bit slow attack speed so in that sense struggles a bit in early game. Can be upgraded into Mistress (1580 HHP;153-169 PDMG;1.05 AS) which is also melee tower. Mistress is nice mid game tower with decent damage. Can cast Seduce that makes units in small AOE to miss on 15% of their attacks in next 7 seconds. This is very good as it basically gives evasion to all your units. A bit concerning about Mistress is that she has piercing type of damage that is good versus light waves that usually have magic damage which kills her very fast due to her heavy armor type.









30. Minotaur (1415 HHP;128-152 NDMG;1.20 AS): Minotaur is Demi-Human builder tier 6 tower. He has Tremor ability that deals 20 spell damage to units around him and slows their attack and move speed by 10% for 4 secounds. This is very good on early waves as Tremor has low cooldown so Minotaur can cast this two or more times during single wave. Tremor doesn't affect flying units, so Minotaur is not awesome on these waves as he is on ground waves. Concerning thing about Minotaur in early is Hermit summon that can heal back units (+3 health points per second) damaged by Tremor, which can make you leak a lot, even on level 1. He can be Upgraded to Bigfoot (2465 HHP;233-257 NDMG;1.2 AS) which is tanky melee tower. Bigfoot has Fissure ability that deals 75 spell damage to units around him and stuns them for 1 second. Overall nice tank at all stages of the game, but struggles a bit on ranged waves with magic attack type.









31. Acolyte (100 MHP;8-9 MDMG;0.8 AS): Acolyte is ranged Undead builder tier 1 tower. As majority of tier 1 towers, he is pretty much useless in X3 mode. Can be upgraded into Revenant (380 LHP;28-32 MDMG;0.6 AS) which is also ranged, and very good in early game due to his great attack speed.









32. Ghoul (280 UHP; 24-30 NDMG;1.0 AS): Ghoul is melee Undead builder tier 2 tower. Can tank first few waves a bit, but not awesome by any means. Can be upgraded into Frenzy Ghoul (660 UHP;51-53 CDMG;0.8 AS) that is also melee and great early game tower.  Frenzy Ghoul has Life Steal ability that converts 15% of hes attack damage (after all reductions) in health points on each attack. This is very good, makes him more durable in early game when creeps have low damage. Overall, Frenzy Ghoul is great early games tower, tanks good with his life steal and attacks fast too.









33. Meat Wagon (265 FHP;31-37 SDMG;1.0 AS): Meat Wagon is ranged Undead builder tier 3 tower. As all other Undead units, he is weak a bit. Has Small Splash ability that does splash damage to units next to main target. This only works on ground units. Can be upgraded in War Machine (600 FHP; 92-106 SDMG;1.0 AS) which is stronger version of Meat Wagon with same ability. Overall slow and weak, try to avoid building it.









34. Necromancer (300 LHP; 31-42 PDMG;1.1 AS): Necromancer is ranged Undead builders tier 4 tower. He has Raise Dead ability that summons Fire Archer (100 LHP;10-10 PDMG;0.33 AS) to fight for him. Fire Archers are good on early waves due to their attack speed, but they have low damage. Necromancer can be upgraded once, but has two different upgrades. First upgrade is into Necrolyte (750 LHP; 77-88 PDMG;1.10 AS) which is stronger version of Necromacer with Mass Dead ability that summons 3 Fire Archers instead of 1. Necrolyte is good early game tower, but looses efficiency as game goes later. Secound upgrade is into Ghost (1100 LHP;105-115 PDMG;1.10 AS) which has Heartstopper aura that drains 1% of enemy units maximum health points per secound. As units has low HP in early game, he is not so good early on. As game goes on his aura drains more and more HP, so he does insane amount of damage in late game to all enemy creeps (Heartstopper aura has huge AOE).









35. Zombie (880 MHP; 59-64 NDMG;0.8 AS): Zombie is melee Undead builders tier 5 tower. With his nice attack speed and HP pool he is good in early game, can hit hard and tank nice amount of damage. Zombie has Infectious Diseases ability that reduces damage of enemy creeps by 5% (Infectious Diseases has small, melee AOE, so it won't work on ranged waves). Can be upgraded into The Butcher (1770 MHP;237-275 NDMG;1.6 AS) which is melee mid game tank. Has Plague ability that reduces damage of enemy creeps by 10% and Life Steal (10%) ability that works the same as on Frenzy Ghoul. The Butcher is nice tank in early and mid game, has insane damage but slow attack speed. Overall decent, but not epic tower by any means. 




 




36. Guardian of Death (1550 HHP;121-143 NDMG;1.2 AS): Guardian of Death is slightly ranged (but still melee) Undead builder tier 6 tower. Would be nice tower in early game, but his price does't allow you to build it early on (costs 320 gold, and at level 1 you have 300 gold). He is nice mid game tank with Circle Splash ability that deals splash damage on ground units around main target. Can be upgraded into Death Dragon (2600 HHP;313-328 NDMG;1.6 AS) which is ranged tower. Death Dragon has insane damage but due to his slow attack he is not that awesome. Good in lategame as he is flying, so he doesn't bug much with other, ground towers.









37. Peewee (125 MHP; 17-19 NDMG;1.5 AS): Pewee is melee Mech builder tier 1 tower. With low HP, DMG and AS, he is useless in X3 mode. Can be upgraded into Veteran (740 MHP;83-94 NDMG;1.3 AS) which is stornger version of Pewee. He can be used in early game to tank a bit, but you will need something to attack behind him due to his 1.3 attack speed.













38. Infantry (160 LHP;16-20 PDMG;0.6 AS): Infantry is high ranged Mech builder tier 2 tower. Has low HP but attacks pretty well in early game. Can be upgraded once, but has two different upgrades. First upgrade is into Zeus (450 LHP;16-18 PDMG;0.25 AS) which is also long ranged tower. Zeus is extremely good in early-mid game due to his insane attack speed. Zeus has Power Surge ability that deals 50 bonus damage for cost of 10 mana. Zeus has mana pool of 10 and he gains 1 mana on every attack, so Power surge is basically +50 damage on every 10th attack. Second upgrade is into Pyro (1005 HHP; 48-52 CDMG; 0.52 AS) which is low ranged (almost melee) tower. Pyro is insane in early game, he can tank a lot, has extreme damage and attack speed. He is also good in mid game as a tank. Overall Pyro is one of the best early game towers.









39. Captain (585 MHP;60-72+5 NDMG;1.5 AS): Captain is supportive and melee Mech builder tier 3 tower. Can be used as tank in early game, but with his slow attack speed, deals low damage. Captain has Leadership aura that gives 7% bonus damage to all nearby towers (including him). This is not much in early game when you have few towers with low damage, but gets better and better as you build more towers. Can be upgraded to Admiral (1235 MHP;153-173+20 NDMG;1.7 AS) which is stronger version of Captain. He has Superiority arua that gives 12% bonus damage to all your towers. As a damage dealer pretty much useless due to his poor attack speed, but as a Captain great supportive tower. Leadership and Superiority auras stack, so if you build one Captain and one Admiral they will grant you total of 19% bonus damage to all your units. As i said this is nothing in early game, but in late game they give extreme amount of bonus damage to your tower mass.









40. Tempest (600 HHP;30-44 SDMG;0.6 AS): Tempest is ranged Mech builder tier 4 tower. With his nice HP and attack speed he can be used in early game. Can be upgraded to Leviathan (1420 HHP;265-305 SDMG;2.1 AS) which is also ranged tower. Leviathan is probably the most useless tower in Legion Tower Defense Mega. With 2.1 attack speed he is never worth to upgrade and he is expensive too. He has Shrapnel ability that gives him 40% to deal 50 damage to 3 units next to main target on each attack. Aslo useless ability as it depends on his attack speed.









41. Cyborg (1035 HHP;121-135 NDMG;1.3 AS): Cyborg is melee Mech builder tier 5 tower. With his nice HP pool can tank nicely in early game, but he has slow attack speed. Can be upgraded into Krogoth (2200 HHP;156-164 NDMG;0.9 AS) which is also melee tanky tower. Compared to Cyborg he is stronger, but his main advantage is his nice attack speed. Has Vital Slice ability that gives him 15% chance to deal double damage on each attack. Krogoth is quite good early-mid and even late game tanky tower, only concerning thing about him is that he is a bit expensive.









42. Neotank (1420 FHP;143-159 SDMG;0.9 AS): Neotank is ranged Mech builders tier 6 tower. Looks good with insane HP/DMG/AS but he is expensive so it's hard to afford in early game (of course, not impossible, costs 360 gold). Can be upgraded into Doomsday Machine (3015 FHP;303-353 SDMG;0.9 AS) which is one of the strongest towers in Legion Mega. It is also expensive even for mid game, but still can be afforded. In late game it deals insane amount of damage and also tanks very good with 3015 HP. Overall extreme, but expensive tower.









43. Land Mine (20 UHP;1-1 NDMG;0.52 AS) Land Mine is Goblin builders tier 1 tower. I didn't say melee/ranged because this towers is ridiculous, it doesn't attack. Land Mine goes to incoming creeps, suicides and deals 30 damage in 200 AOE (this is actually ability called Kaboom). Can be upgraded twice into Medium Land mine and Ultra Land Mine that are two stronger versions of Land Mine. Medium Land Mine deals 60 damage in 300 AOE and Ultra Land Mine deals 90 damage in 400 AOE. Land Mines can be used in early game in theory, but i don't see any good reason for that.









44. Geomancer (200 MHP;15-17 NDMG;0.8 AS): Geomancer is melee Goblin builder tier 2 tower. With low HP can tank a bit in early game but is almost useless. Can be upgraded into Clockwreck (770 FHP;76-84 NDMG;1.0 AS) which is also melee tower. Can be used in early and mid game as a tank. Clockwreck has Cluster Rockets ability that stuns target in small AOE (at ability tooltip it says that it also deals 10 damage, but it is a bug, because it doesn't deal any damage). Overall decent tank with nice stun ability.









45. Machine Turret (380 LHP;23-27 PDMG;1.0 AS) Machine Turret is ranged Goblin builder tier 3 tower. This tower is very useful in early game with its nice damage and attack speed it clears early waves fast and easy. Machine Turret has Burst Shot ability that strikes two additional enemy creeps with reduced damage. Can be upgraded into Machine Robot (900 LHP; 62-68 PDMG;1.0 AS) which is stronger version of Machine Turret. With higher damage, Machine Robot can be used even in mid game as a ranged damage dealer, but he looses his efficiency as game goes later.









46. Flying Machine (600 MHP;50-60 PDMG;1.0 AS): Flying Machine is ranged Goblin Builder tier 4 tower. He can be used in early game, can tank a bit and deal good damage. Has Telescope aura that gives 8% bonus damage to all ranged towers. Can be upgraded into Helicopter (1200 MHP;100-140 MDMG;1.0 AS) which is stronger version of Flying Machine with Advanced Telescope aura that gives 16% bonus damage to all ranged towers. Telescope and Advanced Telescope does't stack, so there is no point to build Flying Machine and Helicopter together, they will still grant you total of 16% bonus damage for your ranged towers. Still, Advanced Telescope gives amazing amount of bonus damage in late stage of the game when you have huge ranged tower mass.









47. Alchemist (900 LHP;40-45 NDMG;1.0 AS): Alchemist is melee Goblin builder tier 5 tower. Alchemist has Chemical Rage ability that gives him 100% attack speed for full level duration. He is insane on fist few waves due to his extreme attack speed, but his light armor type prevents him from tanking good. Can be upgraded to Goblin Blaster (1850 HHP;140-160 NDMG;1.0 AS) which is also melee tower. This is one of the most imbalaced towers in Legion Mega with his Overlocking ability that gives him 40% bonus move speed (which is great on ranged waves) and 20% bonus attack speed. Overall insane tank that moves fast and deals great damage due to his amazing attack speed. Also not expensive, compared to other towers, which is big part of his imbaness. There is a strategy to build only Goblin Blasters till late mid game, which i will show you how to do in sector called 'Builds'.









48. Steamroller (1350 FHP;130-150 SDMG;1.0 AS): Steamroller is slightly ranged Goblin builder tier 6 tower. Quite tanky with nice damage, can be used in early and mid game. Steamroller has Goblin Driver ability that summons Geomancer after he dies, which can be useful in early game. Can be upgraded to Assault Tank (2300 FHP;252-268 SDMG;1.0 AS) which is ranged tower. With his nice damage and attack speed, he can be used in all game stages. Assault tank has also Goblin Driver ability, but instead of Geomancer he will summons Clockwreck when he dies. This is very useful because he doesn't need tanks (tower tanks,like Krogoth for example, not real tanks) as all other ranged towers, if you have few of them, when one dies, you suddenly have melee tank to fight for you. Overall Assault Tanks are great and not so expensive towers.









49. Hatchling (55 UHP;7-10 MDMG;1.7 AS): Hatchling is melee Marine builder tier 1 tower. With 55 HP useless in X3 mode. Can be upgraded twice. First upgrade is into Swamprunner (280 UHP;24-30 MDMG;1.0 AS) which is also melee and can be used on first few waves, but still quite weak. Now Swamprunner can be upgraded once, but he has two different upgrades. First upgrade is into Fangtooth (660 UHP;51-57 MDMG;0.8 AS) which is melee and has Feast ability. Feast regenerates 25 HP every 5 attacks. Fangtooth is very nice tower in early game, has nice attack speed and is quite durable with its Feast ability. Second upgrade (remember, this is Swamprunners upgrade, not Hatchlings) is into Defiler (690 UHP;65-69 CDMG;1.1 AS) which is also melee tower. Defiler has Biotoxin ability that reduces attack and move speed of his targets by 20%. Move speed reduction stacks, which means that on every attack target has less 20% move speed. Overall nice tower in early game which can be also used later for his slow effect.









50. Egg Sack (260 FHP;16-18 MDMG;1.0 AS): Egg Sack is ranged Marine builders tier 2 tower. It is very good early on, but strangely this is ranged tower that can tank quite good. It has Withdraw ability that activates when Egg is bellow 10%. Withdraw slows Eggs attack speed by 90% but makes it invulnerable to any damage for 1.5 seconds. This ability is very good early on, it provides time for ranged units behind Egg to deal damage. This is, however useless later on, because if enemy creeps have high damage, Withdraw won't activate, Egg Sack will die instantly. Egg Sack can be upgraded into Sky Dragon (635 MHP;62-72 MDMG;1.0 AS) which is also ranged tower. Sky Dragon has Brawl ability which gives him bonus damage on Air units. Overall Sky Dragon is good tower, specially for flying waves, but not epic by any means.









51. Bottom Feeder (400 HHP;41-46 SDMG;1.2 AS): Bottom feeder is melee Marine builder tier 3 tower. Due its slow attack speed, can be only used for tanking purposes. Good and cheap unit, can absorb nice damage in early game. It has Delicacy ability, which makes its selling price 90% of its original cost instead of 50% (all other units sell for 50% of their original cost). Can be upgraded into King Claw (1000 HHP;102-118 SDMG;1.2 AS) which is nothing more but stronger version of Bottom Feeder with same ability. It can tank well even in mid game and when you don't need it anymore, you can sell it for almost full price. Overall one of the best towers in Legion which allows you to manipulate gold as no other tower does.









52. Mermaid (505 LHP;43-54 PDMG;1.1 AS): Mermaid is ranged and supportive Marine builder tier 4 tower. It can be used as good damage dealer in early game, but its main advantage is ability called Sphere. Sphere adds +5 armor to one friendly tower and slows melee units that attack it, both attack and move speed. This makes your unit  more tanky and if you have few Mermaids, they will give bonus armor to almost all your towers. Mermaid can be upgraded into Highbourne (930 LHP;90-103 PDMG;1.1 AS) which is also ranged supportive tower. Highbourne has two abilities, first is the Sphere (same as Mermaids ability, but shorter cooldown) and second ability is called Storm Geyser. She can summon Geyser that heals friendly towers by 10 HP per second, shocks up to 3 enemy creeps for 40 damage every 7 secounds and lasts 15 seconds. Geyser is very nice supportive ability, it heals your units making them more tanky and in conjunction with Sphere your units will be able to take insane amounts of damage and still be alive. However if you have few Highbournes, Storm Geyser's heal won't stack, so you will always have total of 10 HP per second heal for your towers. Overall one of the best if not the best supportive towers in Legion Mega.









53. Komodo (880 MHP; 63-74 NDMG;0.8 AS): Komodo is melee Marine builder tier 5 tower. Another very strange tower due to his ability called Submerge. Submerge allows Komodo to become invulnerable (untargetable) for 1.5 seconds when he is first attacked. After 1.5 seconds he comes back with 25% attack speed. This is great ability, but it disallows Komodo to tank, because while he is Submerged creeps will attack your other potentially ranged towers and they will keep their aggro on them. Overall Komodo is great damage dealer in early game, but if you don't have any other tanks, he is not that good. Can be upgraded into Trident (1770 MHP;140-160 NDMG;1.0 AS) which is also melee early-mid game tank. Trident has Concussion ability that gives him 20% chance to deal double damage and stun target for 2 seconds on every attack. However stun duration is greatly reduced on bosses. Overall decent tanky tower but due to its relatively slow attack speed not epic by any means.









54.  Sea Giant (1380 HHP;119-131 NDMG;0.95 AS): Sea Giant is melee Marine builder tier 6 tower. He is quite cheap compared to the other tier 6 towers and can be built in early game as a both tank and damage dealer due to its high HP pool and fast attack speed. Can be upgraded into Hydra (1660 HHP;178-205 MDMG;1.05 AS) which is ranged tower. Hydra has two abilities. First ability is called Triple Attack that makes her to attack 3 targets with 80% of original damage every three attacks. Second ability is called Mitosis which splits her into three Mini-Hydras(800 UHP;55-65 MDMG;1.0 AS) when main Hydra dies. With total of 4060 HP this makes Hydra one of the best tanks in Legion Mega which deals good damage too. Overall great tower which can be used at all stages of  the game due to its relatively low price.









55. Peasant (75 LHP;6-9 NDMG;1.0 AS): Peasant is melee Paladin builder tier 1 tower. With 75 HP useless in X3 mode. Can be upgraded into Militia (535 MHP;50-54 NDMG;1.0 AS) which is also melee tower. A bit stronger than Peasant, can be used for first two waves, but still almost useless tower.









56. Archer (130 LHP;12-13 PDMG;0.52 AS): Archer is ranged Paladin builder tier 2 tower. In its basic form is almost never used, because of her upgrade. Can be upgraded into Elite Archer (650 LHP;12-13 PDMG;0.55 AS) and most of the Legion Mega players  say that this is the best single unit in game. Elite Archer has Multishot ability which allows her to attack 5 targets at once. Whit great attack speed this tower is ridiculous in early game, can almost clear first few waves by itself (almost, but can clear level 1). Due to her efficiency and great damage, this unit allows you to make huge income scores in early and even mid game. Overall great 'income' unit. There is Elite Archer only strategy until mid game, that i will explain in sector 'Builds'.









56. Footman (385 MHP; 55-59 NDMG;1.5 AS): Footman is melee Paladin builder tier 3 tower. Due to his slow attack speed, he can be used only as a tank in early game. Can be upgraded into Guard (1150 MHP;60-66 NDMG;0.6 AS) which is also melee tower with nice HP and attack speed. He has Defend ability which slows his movement speed but in that state he takes only 85% of piercing damage. This ability is, however, bugged because you should be able to turn this on and off as you like, but it simply doesn't work, so Guard will always have Defend buff on him. Overall slow, but nice tank with good attack speed.









57. Priest (420 LHP;53-63 MDMG;1.0 AS): Priest is ranged and supportive Paladin builder tier 4 tower. He has Heal ability that he can use on one friendly tower. He can heal that tower for 130 HP. This is simply good as it gives more HP to your towers. Can be upgraded into High Priest (840 LHP;118-136 MDMG;1.0 AS) which is also ranged supportive tower. He has Greater Heal that heals single friendly tower for 300 HP. Besides heal, High Priest deals good damage too. Overall good supportive tower with nice damage when upgraded.









58. Knight (880 HHP;70-80 NDMG;0.9 AS): Knight is melee Paladin builder tier 5 tower. With nice amount of HP can tank nicely in early game, but can also deal good damage due to his fast attack speed. Can be upgraded into Cavalier (1770 HHP;181-190 NDMG;1.0 AS) which is stronger version of Knight. Has Harden Armor ability that gives him 30% chance to reduce all incoming damage by 50 every time he is attacked. His main role is to tank in early and mid game, but he deals nice damage too. Overall good tank with ability that makes him even more tanky.









59. Dragon Hawk (1480 MHP;120-128 MDMG;0.8 AS): Dragon Hawk is ranged Paladin builder tier 6 tower. Has nice HP pool and attack speed which makes him good tank and damage dealer in mid game. Can be upgraded into Royal Griffin (2675 MHP;300-300 MDMG;1.5 AS) which is also ranged tower. His attack speed seems slow, but he has Storm Hammers ability that bounces his attack two times with reduced damage. Overall great damage dealer with high base damage and slow attack speed.






Note: Because of it's size, i couldn't upload this Book in one post, so second part is in comment bellow.

WoW this is epic *_*  i must say. Nice work HighestIncome and thanks for this amazing book!

Epic indeed! Great job HI, but i must say that i didn't expect anything less from you. I'm only wondering how long did it take to write all of this down

I agree when they say that you are LTD living legend, yes you are! And of course, thanks for guide.

Awesome Guide, well done !

I would like to play a game with the gamemode -hpgmcb hybrid against you in a public game at rpt-bot 4 vs 4.

You accept the challenge ? 

Whisper me at bnet or give me a reply here on this forum.

Best Regards VorteX-3-Future.

This will be nice for people completely new to the game so that they don't have to learn everything as they play. GJ

Thanks for your support, Nortan and the rest. I will add some advanced stuff to this as time goes... So i hope this will be useful for pro players one day too...

Best Regards, HighestIncome

It's nothing new for advanced players ... and i thought you will speak more about hybrid ... so everybody can read what units there are and you just put your income guide here. Well the point is everybody can read while playing the attack speed and other stuff. And btw there are a better archer build with placement etc. i know... i though you say more about every single builder and how to play them this is just low ..

Builds for every race are boring for me and almost useless online since most played mode is -hp prophet. As i said i will put hybrid guide when i find less complicated way to make it. You can't read attack speed of every unit in game, i used special program for that. Show us your 'better' archer build please? Thanks for 'low'. 


Best Regards, HighestIncome

How advanced are we talking? IMO most "advanced" players do not have much to learn and thus guides are not usually very useful for them.

Hmm that is a good question, so i will give my best to answer. 'I don't exactly know yet'. Maybe few examples can show you 'how advanced' will it be:

1) Guide for mixed positioning melee-ranged builds when ranged towers get some damage, then melee towers (that are located behind ranged) go in front and tank: with that ranged towers with low hp help melee towers to tank, but still they attack, because their hp is not important, they stay behind anyway with full or 1 HP, and that increases tanking potential of your mass because damage is spread more equally. 

2) Explanations how to make good focus on first boss with ranged tower in front. (this is still under 'testing')

3) Anti-Stuck timing builds for 2 players (this is actually complicated because these builds will be based on timing, so when one player leaks, the other is done with his wave on time and he has enough time to anti-stuck his units back (of course, everything will be planned, every player has exact wave that he leaks with summon variations), and all that should be calculated for first 10 waves).

"IMO most "advanced" players do not have much to learn and thus guides are not usually very useful for them.": There is always someone better and smarter than even most "advanced" players from who they can learn. Remember Nortan how, how do you rank "advanced" players? There must be from worst to the best one (advanced player), all can be ranked.

Best Regards, HighestIncome

This is very nice. You can maybe add sector 'advanced strategies' and show some epic strategies that you surely know. I agree that all advanced players can't be on the same skill level, that simply makes no sense. 


干杯

Beautiful mind you have HighestIncome and soul too. To be advanced like you are and still to invest this much effort to help people who are still learning this game is amazing.  It is also amazing that you realize that most of the players that play game are low-average skilled and that the popularization of this game must start with them, not with pro players because pros are 1 in 1000. You deserve to be what you are, one of the most respected players that Legion TD has ever seen, not only because your individual skill level that is outstanding, but because your effort to make this game more popular and to help others that can't be as skilled as you are.


Honestly i thought that you were overrated as a player, but after I have seen some of your replays and after this book, i changed my mind. 

Regards for you, WILKOLS

It is nice to at least see people posting on and using this forum again. For awhile it was mostly just me and for at least a month there was nothing posted at all (I check daily).

I'm still a bit confused about how NERV, Dazzlee, and HuanAK all disappeared around the same time [October 2012]. It's like they made a joint decision that they were done with this or something.

Well, VorteX-3-Future is fake account. For others i don't know, but yea, it is nice to see some active people that post here. For 4 days i managed to get almost 1400 views on my new guide, which is great in my opinion (of course, i know that are not 1400 different people). Most of the views are from forum guests, but they are also welcome here. Overall i can say that this game needs someone as Huan again, some new creator. I can only promise that i will continue to support and play this game, and i look forward to play new version if it's relatively good and balanced. For now, 3.41 is version for me. 

And yea, it is sad that admins and moderators are not active, and we (me and you for example, Nortan) are only regular members of this forum, although we are online almost daily. 


Of course, i would like to thank all of you for your support. I would lie if i say that writing a book was easy job (i spent 8 hours only to upload it), but i think it is worth, and i am happy to hear that it is useful.  


Best Regards, one and only, HighestInc

I am online too


It's a pity that HuanAk is off, i would like to see his reaction on HI's work and "Income Revolution". I mean, Legion changed, evolved, look at famous Bombastik's guide, look at income recommendations, it's not the same. They said that it is hard to achieve income Bombastik suggested. 
Then HI said, 'No problem let's double it'. I think that i play Legion longer than HI and i remember that no one ever thought to do something like that. Players tried not to leak, that was main goal and income was in shadows, every income score was 'ok', 300-400 income on 2nd arena, that was fine.

Hey I'm here too!   Although I recently discovered legion td and this forum (I've been playing about 4 moths now) I try to check out forum once in a week. I remember when I first saw 1500 income game of HighestIncome, was a real shocker! It's a shame that map makers abandoned such a cool map. but, hey, as long as we play it, it's not dead.

And HI really good job, man. This was a really long read, I can say it worthed! I'd like to see some more replays of you. I think that would help too.

About anti-stucking Velen's for good focus, I, myself have been trying to find a good way to do it properly, but it depends on lucky spawn positions of Velens most of the time. Could you give some more tips about that?

Lastly, I'd like to talk about that melee-ranged mixed build, it is good focus for alot of levels. But it fails in low collision+fast levels, as your main dps ranged units are focused down too quickly. That messes up things a little.

Again thanks for your efforts man, keep it up!

Thanks for your support both Rave and Danavortil. 

About Velen anti-stuck there is only one right way to use it: You need deep mid build, then when they spawn you anti-stuck 2 of them, one that is not anti-stucked will go diagonally (directly) to mid and two anti-stucked will go to the far mid first, then to your towers, so you basically have a perfect focus on fist boss. Try it out to see exactly how it works.

About mixed melee-ranged positioning builds, it is still under testing, so if i get something out of that, i will share that with the others, of course.

Best Regards, HI

The mixed melee/ranged builds work best with zeus I think.

It is general idea, so if it works with zeus it works with any ranged tower.


Best Regards, HI

What an incredible read HighestIncome. Thanks for sharing your insight. This will definitely help a lot of the newer players. 1600 income, 27330 value, thats awesome. I have never seen this before. Thank you for your hard work. It's like you try to beat your own records with every game you play. I wish you the best luck for future plans.

Well, it is good if you found this guide useful. 


Best Regards, HighestIncome

Hi, your guide seems quite nice but I was wondering what you do when you are faced with people who send strong units at hard levels ? Cuz this might amplify your leaks (at this point, I don'( know if you leak a lot or not, you just said it was possible that you leaked) and it can be hard to compensate for a big leak early ?

I'm talking like if you're faced with blood orc + furbolg for you + other teamamtes at lvl 7, or early furbolgs, stuff like that. Also I wanted to have your opinion about mass sending at lvl 10.

Do you play on UC bot now ?  Do you always play with teammates or someone with random guys ?
