-Moon Glaive tower (bounce attack)
-Tower with insane attack cooldown, but also with insane attack/splash damage
-Gold tower---low attack, but extra gold if it kills something
-Teleport tower--- can be controlled to cast a spell to move a group of creeps from one point to another
-A living tower that gains experience/gets stronger from kills
-a One Hit Pony that is cheap/kills a target instantly, but is destroyed after 1 use.
-A tower that starts with high attack but reduces in damage the more it attacks, then blows up
-A tower that casts slow? lol you probably already have that.

all good tower ideas =] although i have tried to attempt to make a tower with the bounce attack but i forgot how to make it have such ability... and im having problems with my bash and lighning tower.....

the bash tower has the ability to bash an enemy which is a 1.5 second delay for the spawn.
the lightning tower in the other hand has the ability of chain lightning which is casted everytime it attacks but the tower has a 2.2 second cool down

anyone know how to fix this? if ur using TFT triggers plz post it in JASS form ty =]

i dont know about bash or lightning, but to use a bounce-attack set the missle as Missle-bounce (like a huntress) and increase the maximum amount of targets to whatever number you want.

Transmutation Tower - Casts transmute on enemies, high cooldown, high cost.
Exploding Tower - Invisible, can be walked over, explodes on contact.
Barrage Tower - Pretty basic.
Drain Tower - Casts Unholy Frenzy on targets.
Volcano Tower - Randomly shoots volcano rocks, not targeting anything. Can kill towers ;) Liquid Fire ability.
Cactus Tower - Probably not a good idea, but casts Taunt and has thorns ;)
Shockwave Tower - Pretty much overdone... But good.
Entangle Tower - Entangles enemies to do damage, etc.

I hope these help :)

another good set of towers to add to my map =] +rep to both of u....

ume to make them have ability for RoC how can i do it?

I think its like this...
Code:
Event- A unit owned by (spawn player) is attacked

Condition- unit type of attacking unit is equal to Lightning Tower

Action- Order attacking unit to cast Chain Lightning on attacked unit

The action is a tft trigger im sure of that but if anyone is willing to convert it to JASS i would happily appreciate it =] (plz let me know if this trigger is incorrect so i can correct the mistakes, even if theres leaks)

Can anyone help me on this one?!

Using ROC though? That makes it alot tougher for some of the higher stuff.

I personally would like to see more towers with Mana using spells on them.

This would be ideal in the type of TDs where its not about making a maze, but moreso about a dozen or less towers. Of course all mana consuming abilities would need long cooldowns just so you arent going insane juggling them all quickly.

It would make TDs more interactive, right now most TDs are slap down X towers, make X upgrades, watch X units die. You could add a whole new dimension with this.

Some ideas.

Channel AOE spells. Like Rain of Fire, Death and Decay and such from towers.
Multitarget spells, like fan of blades, lighting spray.
Special effect spells, like a time effect tower, slows all hostile units in a region down by X%.
In fact, so many spells, I am not going to sit here all day typing them out, just look in the object editor for abilities.


Also with abilities, you can have things like towers that move, the Root (Ancients) ability will allow you to move towers.

good i deas +rep Wyvernoid for tower submits and +rep to undeadorcjer for trying... but although... the chain lightning tower i already thought of before this post =/ just named Lightning tower although... and the Arrow Black tower is the Dark tower which i though of before this post as well... keep up the good work guys. im surely going to have many towers for my TD =]

but how can i make the push-back tower? should i make a trigger for that? cuz i only have RoC and well u can convert the TFT triggers (if it using any tft triggers) and ill take that Jass format to use it for RoC. Also how do i make that mind controll ability? i dont think there is such ability for RoC sadly =[

Control magic ? Or with triggers change owner uf unit to player, etc.
Vault tower- gives nearby towers change to get with each kill bonus gold ( it should be small %) Has ability throw gold ( with each upgrade can throw more gould out [ targetable, good for killing bosses coz doing trigger dmg = no handcap]). Has avarage dmg, like kills mobs.

Control Magic doesn't exist in RoC - Control Magic is a Spell Breaker ability! Think! And why not make Vault Tower upgraded from Gold Tower, ;) similar effects - one is weaker, but more widespread :)

Sheep Tower - Makes funny sounds every few seconds.
Black Sheep Wall (Starcraft) - Doesn't attack, reveals invisible units and large map area.
Seer of the Dead (ISEEDEADPEOPLE) - Upgrades from Black Sheep Wall :shades:
Machinegunner - Goes peW p3w, and t3h cr3epz0rz DIE!!

Bunches of Aura Tower xD
Damage-Over-Time Aura, Slow Aura(These two based on Unholy Aura)
Command Aura, Slow Aura, Endurance Aura(Enhance Attack Speed), Armor-Decreasing Aura, EVEN CRITICAL STRIKE AURA ^^

And-- Faerie Fire Tower, Lightning shield Tower, Cyclone Tower...

The names were all obvious. You can think of some better names.

A special one:
Moonstone Tower - has a looooooong cooldown moonstone ability, and when cast all monster fall asleep, then who attacked who go ^^

This is a really good tower idea:
The tricky tower-very weak attack, but possesses a unique ability that massive teleports enemies a few yards back (shouldn't work with bosses, though).
RESULT:Because of that spell, you have many benefits, such as:Imagine a horde of enemies is about to enter ur center point (which must be protected) and you teleport them back to ur towers and slaughter them (should make it hard to build though, like it should be expensive)
P.S: if u have seen this kind of tower elsewhere, sry but I haven't seen such a one...

Ensnare Tower- Attack does no damage, but make a simple trigger like so:
Code:
Event- A unit attacks a unit
Conditions- Unit-type of attacking unit is = to Ensnare Tower
Actions- Set <attacked unit> to <some variable>
   Add Ensnare to <attacking unit>
   Order <attacking unit> to cast Ensnare on <attacked unit's variable>
   Remove Ensnare from <attacking unit>
Should have a slow attack. Also, there should be no projectile.
------------------
Cripple Tower- Similar, but goes about differently.
Code:
Event- A unit attacks a unit
Conditions- Unit-type of attacking unit is = to Cripple Tower
Actions- Set <attacked unit> to <a unit variable variable>
   Create <a dummy> at position of <attacked unit's variable>
   Set <another unit variable> = to <last created unit>
   Add Cripple to <dummy's variable>
   Order <dummy's variable> to cast Cripple on <attacked unit's variable>
   Remove <dummy's variable> from the game
This one should have a projectile, but still slow attack.

If you want to be unique, then you should make a TD with fog so you can't see leaks :D

And besides, why wouldn't you need an Invisible-detecting Tower? What if a swarm of Invisible units come through? Then it's game over. Duh. Smart, aren't you? I never said Invisible Tower, I said that it reveals invisible :mad:

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
