Theater Mechanicus Tips & Tricks

Stick to a few Tower Types

When placing your tower defenses, it is a good idea to use only 1 to 2 tower types as much as possible so that you can focus on getting Wondrous Stick upgrades for that tower type.

Wondrous Stick Selection

On top of selecting the upgrades for the towers that you will use. It is a good idea to pick up Wondrous Stick upgrades of the ones below:

Mystic Stick: Artificer

The Artificer upgrade costs 500 Veneficus Points, but will reward you an extra 500 Veneficus points every time the wave ends.

It is great to pick up this upgrade during the early stages so you will extra points to spend on upgrades in between waves.

Mystic Stick: Downpayment

The Downpayment upgrades costs 0 Veneficus points and will reward you with 2000 points, the downside is that you won't be able to gain any points in the next wave. You can pick this up during the last rounds for that extra points for upgrades.

The side effect of Downpayment can also be mitigated and ignored if you have well-placed Charity towers, as you will still gain some points when enemies die in its AoE.
