- "What's going on with that zombie?! It's regenerating!
Take it out quick before it can heal itself!" - ―Commander dialogue on Wave 7 (Intermediate)
Description
The Ghoul is an enemy that appears only in Intermediate mode. It has a decently high health and a below average speed. It regenerates its health every two seconds by 2%. On certain waves, it can also have other attributes, like Bloated and Slime, making it quite dangerous.
Due to a bug, Ghouls with the Slime attribute do not spawn the Slime upon death.
Appearance
The Ghoul is a tall humanoid with a waist, lower arms and lower legs in its rig. It has a light green skin color, torn dark grey shorts, a belt and a ragged white lab coat. It has exposed green veins, multiple tumors on its body and a malnourished chest. It has green glowing eyes and black patches of hair on its head, with a few strands on the sides.
Strategy
- The Ghoul's ability to heal itself can prove to be quite dangerous.
- Towers like the Golden Soldier, Cowboy, Militant, Crook Boss or Golden Crook Boss can be quite effective against it due to their decent DPS.
- Later on, high DPS towers like the Minigunner, Accelerator or Engineer can kill these with ease.
- Towers with high damage can be quite useful against it, such towers include the Military Base, Trapper and Mortar.
- Later on, some high damage towers have the capability to kill Ghouls in a single hit, including bloated Ghouls.
- Towers like the Pyromancer can be useful, as their damage over time effect will partially or fully negate the health regeneration from the Ghoul.
- Crowd control towers with high damage output, such as the Mortar and Rocketeer can prove effective in clearing out Ghouls in later waves, considering they appear in large groups.
