Description

The Fallen Shield is a very large enemy that appears in Fallen, Fallen Arena PVP modes and also The Takeover Event. It has high health, Shield Health, a decent speed and 50% defense, which reduces most forms of damage by 33%. It has Stun Immunity, making stunning towers only slow it down and preventing knockback towers from knocking it back. It is a Boss enemy when it first spawns.

When it loses all of its Shield Health, the Fallen Shield will begin charging, increasing its speed temporarily, slowing down back to its regular speed after a few seconds.

The Fallen Shield can be spawned by the Awakened Fallen King with its Army of Chaos ability.

Logbook Description

"Fallen Shields were trained to absorb incoming attacks while protecting their allies. They stood before the throne as the final defense to invaders. The curse tarnished them as all fell under control of the Fallen King. They protect nothing now but the one who once had everything."

Appearance

The Fallen Shield wears dark teal and silver armor. This armor covers most of its body, with the exception of its left arm. This arm has blue skin with multiple bandages wrapped around it. It wields a massive shield in front of it and a mace to its side. When its ability activates, it changes stance and charges forward with particles trailing behind it. When it is defeated, it has a death animation where it tosses its shield, then falls over.

Strategy

• The Fallen Shield mainly appears right before other high-health enemies that spawn, such as the Fallen Summoner, serving to protect and tank incoming damage to allow these enemies to progress further. In some of the later waves, it will be the first to appear and further lead enemies along the path that are behind it.
  • This is also problematic when it spawns with status effects like Bloated and Nimble, further protecting and leading the horde.
    • You should utilize high DPS towers, such as the Accelerator, Engineer and Turret to defeat the Fallen Shield as quickily as possible.
    • The DJ Booth, Commander and Mercenary Base can be used to boost these towers.
      • In addition, it may be best to drain all of the Fallen Shield's Shield Health first, as its Charge of the Light Brigade ability automatically triggers after it loses all of its shield health. You can set some towers to Strongest to target it directly.
• As the Fallen Shield is quite fast for its health, towers that slow down enemies, such as the Trapper, Tesla or Warden can be pretty useful here.
  • When it first spawns, the only way to slow it down is by stunning it, as its immunities prevent all other forms of stalling from affecting it.
  • It cannot be frozen or chilled by freezing towers, making them useless against it.
• You can use defense dropping towers, such as the Pyromancer to decrease this enemy's defense.
