Hallow Punk has been made unobtainable from the game as of the 20th of November 2024 as it was part of the Hexscape Event. Players with the item in question can continue using it, but you cannot obtain this item anymore, outside of limited-time promotional sales.
A mad explosives expert capable of knocking back and burning enemies.
The Hallow Punk is an exclusive ground tower that deals Splash Damage, which knocks back all enemies hit. It is unlocked by triumphing all the Hexscape Event nights on the Easy difficulty. Most recently, it was obtainable through a limited-time gamepass for 299.
The Hallow Punk is an early-game Splash Damage tower that deals medium damage to enemies within an explosion radius. However, the Hallow Punk has a slow firerate. All enemies hit by it will be knocked back, with the distance depending on its size, while at Level 2 and above, will have burn applied to them. Additionally, it does not have damage drop off when enemies are away from the center. It does not bypass defense. This tower has lead detection at Level 0+, hidden detection at Level 2+ and flying detection at Level 3, making it effective against all types of enemies.
The Hallow Punk can be effective against low-mid health crowds of enemies, but struggles against high health hordes of enemies. It can however be useful at knocking them back. The Hallow Punk is considered an early-mid-game tower.
The Hallow Punk has a placement limit of ten per player.

Statistics
To see all the previous statistics of this tower, see the history page.
Due to the Hallow Punk's cheap cost, a few of them placed down can be effective in the early-game, being quite effective against hordes and even high health enemies that appear during early-game.
If the Hallow Punk fires and the enemy is out of range, the missile will still track it down and hit it.
Paired with its high range, this makes it near impossible for an enemy to avoid at least one rocket from the Hallow Punk.
The Hallow Punk has lead detection at Level 0, hidden detection at Level 2 and flying detection at Level 3, making it an option against such enemies.
It also means it can be used to take down Lead Balloons, though because of its low DPS it will likely be unable to take care of them on its own.
Changing Hallow Punk's targeting to Strongest, making it deal highest damage possible.
Random targeting can also be useful, especially at Level 2+ where it gains burn.
Trivia
The Hallow Punk is the first tower to have only 3 levels.
During Containment, if Easy difficulty is selected, the Hallow Punk is included in all loadouts as a sixth tower, even if the player had not obtained the Hallow Punk.

Notes
↑On Levels 0-1, through splash damage, flying enemies may be hit indirectly if another detectable enemy is nearby.
↑Through splash damage, hidden enemies may be hit indirectly if another detectable enemy is nearby.
↑Firerate does not account for projectile travel time.
↑DPS assumes only one enemy is hit and receives full splash damage, and does not account for projectile travel time. With burn, Total DPS is calculated as Normal DPS + Burn DPS, with Burn DPS being calculated as Burn Damage ÷ Tick.
