The Detonator Update: Your Towers Are the Target
Last Bastion Protocol · published · build 25353906
Your towers are now targets.
You built the line. You held the wave. Then something red slipped through. Meet the Detonator, a new elite enemy with one devastating trick: get close enough, and it can blow itself up to destroy a nearby tower. Killing it at close range can be just as dangerous.
One lost tower. One sudden gap. A very different battle.
Watch the wave. Watch the sky.
Detonators can arrive with the advancing wave, land in an airdrop, or emerge from a Titan's deployed units. And when a range-cutting Jammer joins them, your safe zone gets a lot smaller.
Spot the red threat early. Don't give it a clear run at your defenses.
Bring a Veil. Buy yourself breathing room.
The Veil Scanner has your answer: DISARM, unlocked at Beta level 3. Catch a Detonator inside its coverage and its explosion is suppressed—even if you destroy it. That protection lingers briefly after it leaves the scanner's range, giving your towers time to finish the job. Alpha upgrades extend that breathing room. Cover the approach. Break up dangerous pairs. Make every second count.
A blast hurts. The fight goes on.
If a tower falls in the main game, its build pad remains. Rebuild, close the gap, and hold the line. In Endless, towers with Endless ranks can survive the hit by losing up to five ranks instead. Even your strongest defenses have something to lose. Protect your towers. Disarm the threat. Hold the line.
