Idle Monster TD Evolved: Tips & Tricks for New Players

[@washoloco]

Please make an early- mid - late game towers builds. Thx for the tips

[@cypherxplays4766]

It's hard to make mid builds for me since I'm already that far and it is really dependent on which upgrades one has got. I can do some late game tower builds though!

[@cypherxplays4766]

I'm also waiting for the new update which might contain new pets Lv 25 & 30. So make a good guide for it! :)

This isn't quite the video I was hoping for, but still some useful information for people who really don't get how the game works. I wonder how much the game has changed in the two years since this video has uploaded too, since personally I've been spamming the Tank since I could first kill it and my progress has been strong enough to not run into any issues yet, nor have I needed any health decreases. The Necromancer was some really nice info though, knowing that there's a hard cap at 41 tech points means I'm going to completely stop spawning them for a good long while. What I really want to know is what kind of tower combinations work well. I've been going for a single DPS tower surrounded by as many support towers, with a Wraith and Death mage to boost energy and gold gains. It pushed me up to wave 1800 so that I could start really farming the duplicate cards for divine tier, but I've fallen back to the 1600s since I've swapped focus from progressing waves to leveling and boosting towers. Another thing that makes me wonder about changes in the past 2 years is that you didn't mention pets at all. Did they come after this video, or are they just not considered early game content?

[@cypherxplays4766]

yea the sad story is that the game is dead :( New devs don't activate events anymore nor the tournaments ;(

[@Morax]

Any tips on the fastest way to evolve towers in early game?

[@cypherxplays4766]

The game changed so much since I started. But make sure to set EXP Boost tags to boss only and towers to focus boss with that skill.

[@cypherxplays4766]

That has been a change since this video

[@gosiak9366]

Have you maybe tested attack speed spell as replacement for game speed?

[@cypherxplays4766]

You can surely sacrifice a bit of gamespeed for attack speed, aslong as you get your Moths to 0.11s

[@christianjameslorica1890]

In attack speed who has best attack speed 0.46 or 1.06?

[@cypherxplays4766]

0.46 because it's faster.

[@cypherxplays4766]

0.10 is the max you can get

When using the peasant mob is the cooldown of peasant mob is increasing? Because before it's 15 minutes now is 18 minutes.

so u spawn necromancer and dont kill him inother words?

[@cypherxplays4766]

you can now, they changed it so you can reduce their Health Pool.

[@kevincan999]

I was wondering if you did the last tournament?? Didn't see you push. Good tips!

[@cypherxplays4766]

I didn't push yet, I've been leveling pets mostly, I just got my DPS pet 'Devil Hades' to Lv 10 to experiment with Duo DPS

[@kitkup8570]

Isn't it bad advice to tell people not to spawn Tanks and Necromances because late game you can just kill them with Poison and Execute, while Teleporting and Confusing them to buy that extra time for the Poison? I'm not at the point in the game where I can or even need to do that but it sounds like a good plan to me.

[@cypherxplays4766]

Tanks are just for Tournaments ... Execute doesn't work on necromancers/tank. If you use poison, you still need a DPS and mostly you'll need to spawn it 2x which costs extra. Nowadays you can reduce the Necromancers health and kill it easier. Before you couldn't

[@kitkup8570]

@@cypherxplays4766 How do you know execute doesn't work on them? Maybe you should make a new video to update this if this is out of date.

[@cypherxplays4766]

@@kitkup8570 because I've tested it myself :) Yea maybe I can make a new vid idd

[@kitkup8570]

@@cypherxplays4766 Well how about a video where you use every Current health effect and stuff like that and see how close you can get to killing a Necromancer or Tank just from that damage. I think it would be a cool idea and might even be somewhat useful because it would be a way to do Necromancers easier.

[@cypherxplays4766]

@@kitkup8570 Sim already made a video like that if you like! :-)

[@breez7823]

You lost me at 'Hello'. The vid is def nice for people who understand the game. A beginner knows nothing about a Necromancer (at least I didn't until my first E-3). Personally, I would love for someone to rewrite the Early Game Guide or make a video covering all the same star points from the guide. I will come back here after opening immortal or something.

I would say this video wasn't very helpful to new players.

[@cypherxplays4766]

What would you have liked to see then? These are things I wish I knew before player :P

[@kitkup8570]

@@cypherxplays4766 Well new players are people without all things unlocked, they are people that have less than 700 waves done. Would you say that much of the info focuses of them?

[@cypherxplays4766]

@@kitkup8570 Most of the things are for people at any wave really, I learned some of these things at w3000+. It would have been nice to know for me at wave 1 :P I would have played the game differently probably

[@kitkup8570]

@@cypherxplays4766 Okay I'll properly list issues as I rewatch. You mention Necromancer and to get 30 tech points, yet you don't set out a plan for new players to get those 30 tech points. New players don't know where how to increase those tech points and wouldn't know at what point it would be possible for them to grind up to be able to afford them. You should talk about how to get the max gold from a Tank, do you use your spell before you send it or before it dies? What team set up do you use for when you summon a Tank? You talk about leveling to level 11 without mentioning what you would say is a good method for doing that. I don't have any level 11 towers yet but for it seems pretty clear that it's nearly impossible to get to level 11 till you've made alot of progress, so you should be letting people know what to aim for to make that progress and when they should be able to grind for that level 11. I would advise not even suggesting that new players should use resource packs because they need to spend those gems on more important upgrades. So instead of talking about resource packs you should be setting out a plan of what the most important gem upgrades are.

[@kitkup8570]

@@cypherxplays4766 Also something that would be very helpful to new players is. "What's the best tower to focus on for DPS early game? while you're still on your grind to getting your first Divines" Should people focus on Bird or Sting because their Common so they can easily get lots of bonus damage from Cards or should they focus on the highest rarity DPS tower they have?

[@Ice2big13]

Lol wtf dis i just watched?? Its not helpful for new players
