==Strategy== *The '''Farm''' is very useful to have in your loadout, as its ability to generate cash makes it very useful throughout the entire game. **This is even more important when using expensive towers like the [[Accelerator]], [[Engineer]] and [[Ranger]]. **The only time you should not bring the '''Farm''' is when there are too few waves to make it worthwhile. This includes most events. ***Some events outright prevent '''Farms''' from generating cash or even being placed down, so it is useless to bring the '''Farm''' for them. *Keep in mind that the '''Farm''' does not generate money for teammates. *When using the '''Farm''', ensure you have a balance of defense and farming. Too little of either can be dangerous. **When playing with others, it is usually recommended to either focus wholly on '''Farms''' or defense. The other players can assist in the areas you are not working on. ***If you are defending in the early game, you should switch to '''Farms''' once the players who have farmed in the early game place down stronger towers that can sustain the following waves, and vice versa. ***You should state in chat what role you intend to play before making any move and observe if the other players are farming or defending. ***Be ready to drop your farming if the situation calls for it. Sometimes, the player defending may not be able to cope and needs assistance from other players. ****Depending on the stage of the game which this happens, you may need to use an early game tower to help. It is always a good idea to bring along some early defense, even if you are planning to farm the majority of the early game, just to be safe. **When playing alone, the balance can be hard to maintain. Cheap, cost-effective early game towers should be used to defend. ***It may be more effective to use the [[Cowboy]] or [[Golden Cowboy]] instead of the '''Farm''', as they cover both economy and defense at the same time. Do note that both can be used in conjunction. *When using the '''Farm''', there is usually a choice between sticking to Level 3 or Level 5 '''Farms''', though there is no right or wrong choice. **If you do decide to upgrade to Level 5 '''Farms''', upgrade them from Level 3 to Level 4 first and then upgrade them to Level 5. **In [[Molten Mode|Molten]], [[Fallen Mode|Fallen]] and [[Frost Mode|Frost]] modes, Level 5 '''Farms''' are generally more beneficial due to the larger number of waves and rather low cash gained from defeating enemies. **In [[Easy Mode|Easy]], [[Intermediate Mode|Intermediate]], [[Polluted Wasteland II]] and [[Badlands II]] mode, the low number of waves makes Level 5 '''Farms''' usually not worthwhile. **When playing in [[Pizza Party]], [[Hardcore Mode|Hardcore]] or [[Voidcore Mode|Voidcore]] mode, Level 5 '''Farms''' are still a good option, but Level 3 '''Farms''' are sometimes sufficient, as you get enough money from defeating enemies. *On the final wave of any mode, all '''Farms''' not affected by [[Harvester]] should be sold, as they do not generate any cash, do not grow thorns and take up the tower limit. *Do not place '''Farms''' near the path in important spots, especially without [[Harvester]], as they take up space and are potential optimal spots for offensive towers. **If you have the [[Harvester]], you may consider spreading out the '''Farms''' so that most of the path is covered by thorns, or clumping them up in order to do the most damage possible. *Although the [[DJ Booth]] cannot discount the '''Farm''', '''Farms''' still count as a tower for [[DJ Booth]] Green track ability making it sometimes situational to place farms near [[DJ Booth]] early for more cash generation. *When farming, try to minimize unspent cash at the end of each wave while aiming for Level 2 and 3 '''Farms'''. Afterwards, get the Level 4 and then Level 5 '''Farms'''. *Consider how you place '''Farms''' in game for space and organization. **Map placement can play a huge factor in '''Farm''' placement, as some maps may not have suitable room for '''Farms''' to be placed on, with the room having to be taken by other towers. You may want to factor this when doing solo or party strategies. **You may want to place '''Farms''' in rows, such as four '''Farms''' placed extremely close to four other '''Farms''' to not waste space. **It is not recommended to place '''Farms''' in areas you will have a hard time seeing or getting to if possible, such as behind the building in [[U-Turn]].
