Description

The Hallow Guard was an enemy that appeared exclusively in Trick or Threat Town, and was the first enemy to spawn, as part of the Halloween 2020 Event. Currently, it can be spawned again in Sandbox mode, It also has 35% defense which means that the Hallow Guard may take a while to defeat. Additionally, it can stun towers with its Slash ability.

Appearance

The Hallow Guard is very similar to the Hallow Bones, except that it is much taller than it. It is entirely made out of marble dark grey parts to represent a skeleton. It does not have a full torso, but instead has the bone cage for it. Its head is slightly smaller than usual and has two large yellow eyes. Fire is emitted from its eyes. It has dark marble armor and helmet. It holds a sword which is used to slash at towers.

Event Strategy

As this enemy only appears through Sandbox mode, no strategy section is made for its current version. Instead, a strategy section for the one that appeared without Sandbox mode in Trick or Threat Town during its event is listed instead.

• Due to their high health and defense, the Ranger is the best tower against the Hallow Guard.
  • Placing down multiple Level 3+ Rangers is recommended to take down this enemy.
  • The Accelerator and Turret can also be used.
    • Be aware that if the Accelerator is stunned, it will have to go through its lengthy charge-up again.
  • The Minigunner can also be used, but due to the Hallow Guard's defense, it will only deal half damage towards it.
    • You can lower the Hallow Guard's defense by using the Pyromancer, Freezer or Electroshocker.
• If you can, try to place towers away from the path so that they cannot be targeted by the Hallow Guard.
  • Cliff and air-based towers cannot be targeted, making them ideal against the Hallow Guard.
• Using the Commander's Call to Arms ability to boost the firerate of towers attacking this enemy is a good idea.
