__TOC__
==Description==
The '''Heavy''' is a slow [[Enemies|enemy]] that appears in [[Molten Mode|Molten]], [[Challenge Trials]] and Fallen Arena [[PVP]] modes. It also appears in [[Badlands II]] and [[Pizza Party]] maps. It also appears in the [[Sandbox Mode|Sandbox]] exclusive [[Legacy Fallen Mode|Legacy Fallen]] and [[Golden Mode|Golden]] modes, and in [[The Takeover Event]].

In comparison to the [[Abnormal]] and [[Quick]], it is quite a tanky enemy. However, it walks much slower than those enemies. The '''Heavy''' also has [[Defense|defense]], something the [[Quick]] and [[Abnormal]] do not have. The '''Heavy''' can also be spawned by the [[Dark Necromancer]] and the [[Mystery]] in [[Golden Mode|Golden]] mode and [[Legacy Fallen Mode|Legacy Fallen]] mode only.

==Appearance==
{{Tabber
|Modern
|The '''Heavy''' has a metallic grey head and arms, and a metallic dark grey torso and legs. It has a greyish-tan chestplate, shoulder-guards and cuffs, with chains strapped around the chestplate and attached to the cuffs. The chestplate has dark grey diamond plates screwed onto it.

It has two randomly chosen walking animations, one of which consists of it hunched forward while walking, and the other that consists of it walking whilst leaning backwards.
|Legacy
|{{Tabber
|Current
|The current version of the legacy '''Heavy''' has a reflective tannish-grey skin color and brown diamond-plated torso and legs. It also has light grey chains wrapped around both of its arms and had no face.
|Current (Enemies Beta)
|The current [[Enemies Beta]] version of the legacy '''Heavy''' has a dark purple skin color, along with lighter purple veins on its arms and head. It has a dark brown torso and legs.
|Version 2
|The second version of the legacy '''Heavy''' is identical to its third version, except it had a sad face.
|Version 1
|The original legacy '''Heavy''' had a dark greyish-green skin color and a dark green granite torso with darker green granite legs. It also had a drooling zombie face.

==Strategy==
*The '''Heavy''' has higher health compared to the [[Abnormal]] and [[Quick]], along with defense. Thus, it is recommended to invest in additional defense before or during its first appearance.
*Most towers can deal with the '''Heavy''' fairly easily.
**Efficient early-game towers like the [[Electroshocker]], [[Golden Scout]], [[Militant]], [[Assassin]] or [[Cowboy]] are recommended.
**Stronger towers like the [[Minigunner]] or [[Golden Minigunner]] can fare pretty well if you are able to afford them, though it is advised to use the [[Farm]] if you plan to do so.
**Towers which bypass [[Defense]], like the [[Trapper]] or [[Military Base]] can do quite well against this enemy, as they will deal full damage to it.
