    Pros: Cheap resources fast to make.
    Cons: Weak against builders, bombs, couple of knights.

    Used that trap so many times, it's great through if a enemy knight comes, and puts don the drawbridge archers and that can't get up, and will kill themselves sometimes. Another thing is there is a glitch where drawbridges stay down, so you will need to maintain it.

    Pros:
    • Fast and simple to build.
    • Cheap.
    • Stops enemy for a few minutes before they work out how to use the f key/their shield ladder function.
    • Can add a collapse on top to kill multiple enemy.
    Cons:
    • That spike trap is very, very easy to evade.
    • Easy to be griefed.
    • Weak against builders.
    • Weak against 2 knights using their shield+w.
    • Weak against bombs.
    Try adding a bomb chute in front.

    Another con is that it is not noob-friendly at all, so you effectively prevent many noobs of getting over this hurdle and getting to the front. (On second thought... ;))

    Another con is that it can be easily conquered by an enemy builder with little backup and quickly converted into a small enemy forward tower. It takes just one ladder and one block and this thing works against you and for the enemy.

    same but it's cheaper and doesn't rely on idiotic launchpads

    The spike would be towards the stone =p

  7. Pretty good if you want to get something up really quick. But there are better towers that you can get up in the same time.

    This is still pretty good if your a beginner builder and you want to be actually helpful to your team.

    thats 8 hits, I guess if it is gonna stay there for a while yea, you could do it but it wouldn't make sense if it is rushed since it would slow down the building
