Royal Defense Towers
Royal Defense Tower Guide
Learn how to think about Royal Defense towers, including archers, mages, artillery, barracks, placement overlap, and upgrade priorities.
Archers and Early Damage
Archers are useful when you need steady early damage. Place them where they can shoot for a long time, then upgrade the archer that spends the most time firing. They are especially helpful for smoothing out the first waves while you prepare heavier answers.
Mages, Artillery, and Barracks
Mages help when normal damage feels weak, artillery works best when enemies group together, and barracks can slow pressure by keeping enemies inside tower range longer. The best tower mix depends on what the wave is doing, not just what looks strongest in isolation.
Tower Upgrade Priority
Upgrade towers that sit inside your busiest road section first. A tower near a bend or overlap point may attack the same wave several times, so each upgrade there changes more of the battle than an upgrade in a quiet corner.
