Description
The Hefty is a tanky enemy that appears in Hardcore and Voidcore modes. It also appeared in the Halloween 2026 Live Events. It has higher health and Defense than every enemy that appeared before it, though it is also slower than all of them.
The Hefty can be spawned by the Mystery.
Logbook Description
"The Hefty are those who are completely consumed by the Void Gems. Gems sprout from their bodies as their skin turns to crystal. The souls trapped within their bodies are chained down by magic as the transformation causes them to fall out with nothing organic to hold onto."
Appearance
The Hefty has grey skin. Its body is covered in multiple purple crystals. It has veins on its arms and a hole in its torso with a chain coming out of it. It has two animations it can pick from.
The current legacy version of the Hefty has dark red reflective skin. Its torso, legs, wristbands and sleeves were made out of corroded metal. It is faceless.
The first version of the Hefty had green reflective skin. Its torso, legs, wristbands and sleeves were made out of corroded metal. It had a sad face. It walked with its head titled downwards. It looked similar to the Chained Boss.
Strategy
- While fairly tough for its debut, the Hefty can easily be handled by most early game towers, such as the Pyromancer, Engineer, Saboteur and Operator.
- As Voidcore mode awards much less cash, completely relying on the Pyromancer is not recommended.
- The Hefty's Defense is negligible, as it is too low to have an impact on most towers.
