- "Time to release the latest and greatest of our minions...
BEHOLD THE SYNAPTIC!
BOW BEFORE ITS SPEED!" - ―Titus on Wave 10 (Failed Gateway)

- "Watch out! These guys leave behind puddles that heal any enemies that walk through them!"
- ―Dispatcher on Wave 10 (Failed Gateway)
Description
The Synaptic was an enemy that spawned in Failed Gateway as part of the Hexscape Event. It was a fast enemy with high health and defense. It had one ability, where it left purple puddle trails. These trails applied a short 0.1 second regeneration that healed any enemy that walked over them by 10 health for the 0.1 second duration. It also had Freeze Immunity and Stun Immunity, making it harder to slow down.
Appearance
The Synaptic took the appearance of a brain in an orange container, which piloted a scrappy mech with four limbs. The mech itself was covered with spikes and bore a mouth full of sharp teeth. As the Synaptic ran, it left behind purple puddle trails, which were part of its Neuroplasm ability.
Strategy
- Synaptics are fast, dangerous enemies. Towers with high damage are required in order to kill them.
- Towers like the Militant, Minigunner, Crook Boss or Golden Soldier can be quite effective here.
- Because of its immunities, it cannot be frozen or chilled, knocked back and is only slowed down by stunning towers, making it harder to slow down.
- Additionally, as it is immune to freeze, it also cannot have its defense dropped by freezing towers.
- The Synaptic leaves puddles on the ground which heal enemies when they walk over them.
- However, these puddles will rarely heal an enemy unless a Synaptic walks through them. Even in such cases, the healing will be quite insignificant because of how low it is.
- Due to the Synaptic's fast speed, the Military Base may be quite useful in case they get past your defenses.
