"Deal splash damage with impulses and stun enemies!"
―Inventory Description

Description

[edit]

The Toxic Gunner is a ground tower that fires in bursts. It was unlocked by triumphing Trick or Threat Town as part of the Halloween 2020 Event. It was also obtainable through a gamepass for Error creating thumbnail: File missing 500 during the Solar Eclipse Event and for Error creating thumbnail: File missing 550 during the Black Friday 2023 sale.

The Toxic Gunner fires in bursts with a short delay between each burst. At Level 2, these shots gain the ability to slow down enemies. Each shot will make the target enemy temporarily slower by 4%, which can stack up to 20%. Only major bosses like the Fallen King and the Creator are immune to this, however they are not immune to its attacks. At Level 2+, it also applies poison to the enemy which deals 2 damage ever 0.5 seconds for 6 seconds (10 second at Level 4). It can also decrease an enemy's defense at Level 2, decreasing it by 1% each poison tick. It can only decrease up to 50% of an enemy's defense. This tower does not have hidden detection, requiring the use of other towers to attack hidden enemies, like the Minigunner.

This is considered an all-round tower. Because of its cheap cost and decent DPS, it can be used as an early-game tower and even in mid-game. Late game, it is overshadowed by other towers in terms of DPS. However, the slowing effect and defense dropping allows the Toxic Gunner to have some use, even during the late game, as a support tower.
