Crucible Towers

What works, vanguard and stonewall, they give bonuses that help and a nice buff/heal and the radius at the second upgrade is nice. But the offensive towers, I really don’t see the point. The damage is lackluster and the range seems tiny. Plus there are tons of line of sight obstacles in some maps that block projectiles.

And I swear the lightning tower barely fires. Or the graphic is too small.

I finally got a chance to try the Crucible last night for the first time. I don’t know why my work doesn’t understand that I have important video game stuff to do!

Anyway, I made it to 149 on the first difficulty, three times, and wiped each time. I was pissed, but it was fucking awesome. Having all those star monsters, purple named monsters, and nemesis going at you, all at the same time is a blast. I am sure I lost out on some good items, but it was still a great experience.

We are still having difficulty reproducing the hostile towers in the Crucible.

If you experience this bizarre issue, please report it with as much information as possible, and answer the following question:

  • Which Crucible?
  • Which Turret?
  • Did you upgrade the turret?
  • Did you restart the Crucible at a checkpoint?
  • Did you reset the Crucible back to the start?
  • Did the Turret only attack you temporarily before reverting to normal function? Or was the hostile state permanent?
  • Singleplayer or Multiplayer?

Thank you.

Restarted at 50 once after collecting reward

Only one turret was attacking me out of 4 fire turrets after finishing round 100 and collecting reward

Zanti, I’ll give a statment on the two times I’ve had towers target me.

  1. Single player, was messing around in the stash. Somehow, I got hit by a fire and ice effect. Interestingly enough… I hadn’t even BUILT an Ice tower. Fire tower was quite a distance away. I couldn’t reproduce it.

  2. Multiplayer. We got KOed, and Loxaar opened the door for us. All’s well and good, but he won’t let us restart the crucible either. I walk away from him to the vender, and the lightning tower goes ham on me. It stayed aggroed on me until I quit the map.
