Stronger Stimulant is a 4th upgrade on Path 1 of the Alchemist. It is an improved version of the Berserker Brew upgrade, providing bonus range, pierce, and attack speed, to boosted towers for a significantly longer duration. It costs $2,125 on Easy, $2,500 on Medium, $2,700 on Hard, and $3,000 on Impoppable.
Description
Stronger Stimulant is an improved version of Berserker Brew; its berserker potions will have a more powerful effect on monkeys, granting +3 pierce instead of +2, +15% attack speed instead of +5%, +30% range instead of +20% and +1 layer of damage per hit. It also makes the potion last longer (about 12 seconds or 50 attacks, whichever comes first). An Alchemist with this upgrade will be able to keep a maximum of two monkeys consistently boosted with Berserker Brew, whereas regular Berserker Brew wears off too quickly to consistently boost even one monkey.
Stronger Stimulant will give the Alchemist a more crazy appearance, along with holding two large wooden barrels with a black chimney instead of just one wooden barrel without a chimney. Along with this is that its potions will give a glass-smashing effect upon boosting a monkey.
When purchasing the Path 2 upgrades, it will add (TBA). When purchasing the Path 3 upgrades, the Acid Pool upgrade will change the monkey's goggle shape from two eye sockets to a single lengthened socket, while the Faster Throwing upgrade will change the color of the goggles from orange to blue.
Tips
- After Version 6.0, this upgrade is best utilised on slow firerate and/or high-projectile towers such as Bomb Shooters with Recursive Cluster.
- Prior to Version 6.0, this upgrade was best utilized on high firerate and/or high-projectile towers such as Sun Avatars. However, this is no longer the most viable option, since the potions now can wear out after certain amount of attacks from target tower.
- Purchasing Faster Throwing will allow Stronger Stimulant to maintain up to three monkeys instead of just two.
Strategy
TBA
