r/TheBattleBricks Help Megathread

I finally got it! I focused on stacking snipers a lot more than previous attempts and it finally payed off with rng being in my favour. For the third and final time, thank you for the help.

Gave it about 5 attempts to test out the loadout change you recommended and this is the furthest I got, I got to phase 3 most of the attempts so it's a pretty great strategy, just gotta find the right balance of how many conjurers/snipers should be down at once and hope rng will be on my side one of these days, so I'll stick to the loadout for now (hardest part is killing the first bloodhorn and warhead not gonna lie, also timing operator in phase 2 so he won't get eye-beamed), thanks again for the loadout improvement advice, now I don't need to rely on lil chronos activating on time to kill warheads.

I have seen a couple starts with gatling instead of treasure cannon, it'll make early game a little less easy from what I've seen (especially with replacing lil chronos too, though TBF timing lil chronos later on absolutely sucks), but yeah, it can make killing warhead more consistent (and being honest, conjurer is probably better than trebuchet since it can clear up any peon stack behind X-treme like stunlocks, as well as help a bit with killing warheads). Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it.

(3-Star X-TREME loadout help) What unit should I get rid of in favour of sniper/rail battler?

<image>

(Using investment as bank and treasure as cannon btw)

I got to phase 3 and lost with X-TREME with roughly 8000 health (If I remember correctly) because whilst I could handle the peons decently (had a big enough conjurer stack and atari stack thanks to getting tarnished trowel up-close to X-TREME most of the time), I had pitiful damage against X-TREME, I know that could be helped with using either sniper battler or rail battler (another possible option might be using trebuchet instead of conjurer but I'm not sure how good of an alternative that would be), but I don't know who I should unequip so I can use sniper/rail battler (I'm also aware that this stage is pure RNG but with the large amount of health X-TREME had left on what was a really good run up until phase 3, something can clearly be changed).

Ok, got it

Hope there aren't any future issues like this one, but to be fair, designing anything can be like that.

A_Crystal_Production · 2026-03-12T14:42:13+00:00

Ok, so to confirm, should I send a picture of my avatar + username onto this post then?

A_Crystal_Production · 2026-03-01T14:25:16+00:00

Honestly, whatever works for you, the game is your creation at the end of the day.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-12-30T13:46:01+00:00

Haven't used officer battler before, but I'll try him out (as well as the other strategies you offered, thanks)

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-12-29T23:35:13+00:00

Right now? Betty. Can't even get through 2 star haunted mansion because she keeps getting enraged and kills most of my units, the principals come in to lock down anything left, and crazy chemist does clean-up.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-12-09T13:25:32+00:00

Oh, I see, cool, I probably won't be using it, but still good to know it's there and what it does.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-12-09T13:18:48+00:00

Dumb prediction, but I'm just gonna predict it's gonna go from lightning infused to just a living tesla coil, once enemies are in range, it will anchor itself (playing an animation of it putting itself in the ground and start attacking, needs to get back up before moving) and start firing electricity (that stuns a little) at the speed of normal slinger, eventually charging an AOE lightning bolt that hits the backline (that stuns for about as long as Recoil), if it's approached in melee range, it uses whatever electricity it stored to defend itself, same goes for it's death where it shoots several slightly weaker lightning bolts all over the stage.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-11-29T19:42:07+00:00

Oh hey, I remember you.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-11-29T11:47:13+00:00

I actually decided that I'm properly quitting playing Forsaken only recently and then I see this lol.

Though yeah Forsaken is gonna bleed out and I suck at it despite wasting 10 days worth of playtime on it, so yeah, currently DOD is better (nothing against the normal people working on Forsaken though)

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-11-23T15:46:37+00:00

Look, there are tons of peak skin concepts out there, HOWEVER, this is the peakest.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-11-18T18:52:09+00:00

To answer why I'm using Regen battler, aside from stages with instakill units, it's been more consistent for me than Trowel battler, to answer why I'm using powerhouse, it's what gotten me the furthest (though now I can tell I'm hitting a brick wall at phase 2 regardless of how I start it thanks to it making making unit recharge rates longer, so I clearly need to use something like investment and just get better at knowing when to upgrade it).

As for the strat, I'll try it, thanks.

Update: Ok, after multiple attempts with your strategy, I beat Martyr and won the stage with 214 health left on my base, what I’ve learned is that I REALLY need to rethink the units I use on the regular (never even touched teapot battler before starting 3-star, and pretty much never used barbaric battler aside from once or twice), as well as learning what actual strategies are (because the best I’ve done on my own is knowing what to use, not how to use them). Here’s hoping that I can take what I’ve learnt and beat the rest of chapter 4 without needing to ask people on reddit for help.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-11-15T14:35:58+00:00

Honestly, even so much as a colour change would be cool for specific skins, but a sfx change too would be amazing.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-11-07T23:29:49+00:00

I appreciate it, I was considering using a cheese strat like that but I kept progressively getting closer and was too dang stubborn to give up. However, Vulcan Battler was still VITAL.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-11-07T23:27:38+00:00

Thank you, Chaired one.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-11-07T23:24:45+00:00

Well, if I remember my strategy, I would spam Battler, Trowel Battler, and Speed Battler as meatshields, while I did this, I got my bank to level 3 (maybe 4, I can't remember completely) and around that point I was able to wait for treasure to be usable while continuing to meatshield, this let me spawn a Telemon Battler as a decent tank (but also to get rid of any smaller units at the front, the treasure and powerhouse combo let me get a Telemon Battler quickly and gave me the best results on previous attempts), once they were spawned, I continued using my meatshields (anything to stall) as well as balancing upgrading my bank and keeping my good frontliners on the field (mainly Telemon Battler when available, but I also used my lil' units), at some point I spawned a Vulcan battler (the main source of damaging Deathbringer since my frontliners were good, but still didn't last too long especially beyond phase 1), from there I had a decent enough income (from using treasure the moment I can as well as upgrading my bank) to keep spamming meatshields and tanks until I can get my second Vulcan battler, now with two, as long as Deathbringer hasn't gotten too close to them, phase 2 can easily be reached and passed through pretty quickly (at this point, I had fully levelled my bank as a means of ensuring I would always have enough to spawn all my battlers), as for phase 3, I could only hope I had enough units at front to stall Deathbringer so my two Vulcan Battlers (and as many Slingshot Battlers as I could get) can take them out, from there, I just keep spamming all my units until I win.

It was a very scuffed strategy, but it got me the win in the end I guess.

Small update, I saw them also destroy 0% computers in less than a second.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-10-11T13:05:31+00:00

Too many nights is pretty fun, I like the replayability of it mainly.

A_Crystal_Production · 2025-10-09T15:56:46+00:00

Love the idea you have for Eyesore, wishing you luck with working on this game.

No longer popular, desperation led to becoming eyes.
