Known Traps
Tips and Misc
- The challenge doesn't start until you speak to the Great Tree, giving your party time to get in and buff up.
- The top left path is the "Western Path", which makes everything on that side the "Western <name>" when the DM calls out attacks or arriving enemies.
- The middle path is the "Central Path"
- The Bottom right path is the "Eastern Path"
- Each life tree generates 1 point of energy, while the Great Tree generates 1 itself, so losing all the life trees will not end the production of energy.
- The life trees can be upgraded to produce more energy, but at the cost of some of your gathered energy.
- Despite the dialog saying that the cost for upgrading life trees is 50 energy, the actual cost of an upgrade is 30 energy.
- The life trees can be restored when destroyed, at the cost of some of your gathered energy.
- Two different levels of Vine Horror defenders can be purchased at the Great Tree for some of the energy you have gathered.
- This version has Drow Necromancers and later in the Challenge, Priestesses. They work the same as when you find them in other areas.
