useful yes, but squires are just better, dun cha agree?
blockade has 2x hp than magic cannonball tower deals knockback + multi hit spinning knife (that ulti tower) does higher dps than fireball...XD
oh, and any benefits on leveling bloodrage?

^ well, different utility. squire towers physical dmg mage towers elemental dmg
spike block 3 DU, melee dmg magic block 1 DU, remove mobs element
bowling ball 7 DU, good for narrow passage ways fireball 5 DU, good to combo with ensnare, electric aura, block with magic block
slicer and dice 8 DU, well imo not really worth the DU, since need repair always,
blood rage, u do more dmg, resist dmg, etc.

No.
Cannonball is only useful for tight single lanes, i.e: ramparts middle lane. I assume you're not playing on insane where you NEED to use the arcs from Apprentice towers to cover your other towers.
Use cannonball and watch your towers get raped by dark elves who leap over it and start attacking them from behind. Apprentice towers have no such weakness because you can always arc them to cover other each other.
Slice and dice is melee =_=, comparing apples and oranges.. Bouncers are far superior anyway because their theoretical lifespan is far greater than a slice and dice (pushing trash mobs away, or even into chasms/lava. Lol glitterhelm). I will say this though:
Glitterhelm (Hard): Squire > Apprentice Ramparts (Hard): Squire > Apprentice Halloween Spooktacular (Hard): Apprentice > Squire

The SnD tower is frankly, subpar and a waste of DU if you're playing on Insane. It simply doesn't output that much DPS, considering that the Fireball's range can be upped to impressive distances and the enemies would have to walk through an Ensnare Aura to even touch it. As for the SnD, a huge mob wave will simply tear it down since they need to be within melee range to be effective. Hope you like mage skeletons eating them for breakfast.

i play insane ramparts with my lvl 70 apprentice...really hard to solo even with a tower build orientation...XD
the reason i play this is to level up my hero type squire, which does everything my apprentice doesn't...lol
and yea, apprentice is useless in challenges...>.<", isn't it?XD

I beat most of the challenges on Insane with the pre-nerf Wolfen (including soloing Monster Fest), so yeah. I don't recall using my Apprentice in any challenges.

They have specific uses. Blasticus has greater Piercing Shot output unless you get a VERY good one like Edg3 has. VW has issues with electric immune mobs. I'm going to attempt to get a crystal tracker too  Also check this out: http://steamcommunity.com/id/AnyIsle/scree...967448730334169This post has been edited by ZeratoS: Nov 8 2011, 05:41 AM
