Show of Force Walkthrough
The first difficulty is called Show of Force, which includes two portals, two bridges, and several spots to place towers. Since each stage has a point limit, you can only carry a certain number of sticks. It is recommended that the sticks be chosen based on a stage feature. Below are the two Mystic Stick that can be selected.

Strategy
For Show of Force, our main strategy is going to be waiting upstairs and open the two bridges to make the enemies fall down. We will wait for the tougher enemies to appear in the upper section like Ruin Guards and make them fall down the bridge. In the lower section, we can construct more DPS towers for all the mob clusters.
Mechanicus Placement – Construction
When you enter the stage you’ll find several Pyro, Anemo, and Banishment towers that are already up and running. You can dismantle, change or remove the towers. There will be a 10-minute timer to set up your towers and plan your strategy. The stage has bridges and several spots where you can place towers.
Go to the bottom floor and construct an Anemo Dust Devil tower in the second column in the third / bottom row and then rotate it to face the purple portal. Next, construct a Pyro Inferno tower immediately right of the previous tower.
Construct, two Electro Furious Discharge towers in the middle column and a Pyro Inferno Tower in the top column
Construct, two Anemo Dust Devil towers in the column behind the energy shield.
Construct a Banishment shield in the right column immediately in front of the energy shield.
Upstairs you can either remove two Pyro Inferno towers or can leave. And, also place Pyro Inferno tower in nearby slots if you want.
As per the strategy, we are going to stay upstairs and open the two bridges to make the enemies fall down, so it doesn’t matter if you put any tower or not in the upper section.
Enter the Horde
In Similar way you can construct both floors of Enter the Horde. Refer to below image.
- You can obtain a huge number of Veneficus Points when defeating opponents by dropping them.
- The Mechanici you may build and their numerical limits are as follows: 3 Pyro Infernos, 5 Anemo Devils, 3 Electro Furious Discharges, 5 Banishments Shield.
- Increases opponents’ HP, decreases initial Veneficus Points, and increases the number of points you can use to select sticks.
Here you will be able to equip 9 Wonderous Sticks that is equal to 180 Veneficus points.
When you have enough points one Banishment shield and Anemo Devils in the lower floor to stop leaks.
Switch between the two bridges to accommodate the cooldown that happens between the two bridges. To delay the enemy construct a Banishment Shield. It will stop the enemies for two times, before they can pass through the shield.
