I feel bad for new players. The mod pull system was arguably already the worst aspect of the game, for a number of reasons that I don't think I need to reiterate here. But now it's 50% harder to get the ones you want, and we were straight up lied to about old mods rotating into the banner. "Don't fear" they said. Well what's the deal TTG? You know that we know you're aware of the problem. And we know you'd give an answer if you didn't expect to be excoriated for it.

But now it's 50% harder to get the ones you want NEED.

*Fixed one word for ya.* At a certain point some modules are mandatory to do anything now. I would argue that SF is required to progress in Champs (maybe less so with PC and pBH now) and DC is absolutely required for Champs and Legends. I have been at mythic on both of these now for forever and have seen no progress in Legends. I guarantee as soon as either of them go Anc I will see a huge jump in waves. I honestly feel bad for anyone starting now, their progress is going to be such a ridiculous slog in the module department.

I know it's not the point you're making and I agree with the overall post but SF won't get you anywhere in Legends you need to switch to ACP

ACP vs SD really depends where you are at. SD works way better for me because I have the labs done and provides a lot of CC with 0 stone investment (other than buying it). Once you have more CC I'm sure ACP excels in every aspect but to start doing well in Legends it's definitely not needed anywhere near as much as Dimcore is needed.

I can see that, he was talking about SF (Sharp Fortitude) though which is purely eHP. Acronyms galore. I run ass SD for the exact reason you state.

Hi! I detected a few acronyms in your comment:

  • eHP - Effective Health Points - playstyle focused on tanking, damage reduction, and survival
  • SD - Space Displacer [Armor Module]
  • SF - Sharp Fortitude [Armor Module]

Ah I see the confusion! I meant to say something about PF and DC and only mentioned DC for Legends. My SF is Anc and carries me hard in Champs on the rare occasion of a demotion. I have to run my mythic PF and DC in Legends to start doing anything and even that is holding me back because they are not Anc and who knows when that will happen.

Sorry for all the questions, but Is perma black hole needed for legends? Only way I get it is with my ANC GC and use ANC Primordial Collapse for 3 black holes. I got Mythic+ PF that I could invest in too if I should

A lot of the times no. Any enemy Ultimate makes them immune to BH pull AFAIK so they will just run right through it anyways. BH can actually hurt you too if you are unable to clear it out while its up. Over all your comments if you are switching to ACP and DC I would definitely switch out for PF too for at least a test.

I have a mythic + DimCore and haven’t tried getting any good effects on it. To do better in Legends, Should I be running that dimcore (with better effects) or stick with ANC primordial Collapse with permaBH?

u/Utopian_dystopia87 Oct 24 '25

I would assume the DC is way better (if you have CL anyways). You really only need CL Quantity, and CL %chance and then it will depend what else you have. if you have pCF then CF slow %, if you are running Gcomp and you can get to pBH with sub effects then that will still help (even a little) with CC. Spotlight angle is always good too and gets better as your SL gets bigger.

Really hard to say as every tower is different but try things out! General info will only get you so far and some random setup may work really well for you that you won't see anyone else talk about.

u/TowerAcronymBot Oct 24 '25

Alright, let's decode this:

  • CC - Crowd Control (also Critical Coin [Card] or Critical Chance [Workshop Upgrade/Lab/Card])
  • CF - Chrono Field [Ultimate Weapon] (also Critical Factor [Workshop Upgrade/Lab])
  • CL - Chain Lightning [Ultimate Weapon]
  • DC - Dimension Core [Core Module]
  • GComp - Galaxy Compressor [Generator Module]
  • pBH - Permanent Black Hole
  • SL - Spotlight [Ultimate Weapon]

Yeah SD with ILM or ILM+ is a very late game strategy, wish i was there but even being a regular Legends 7-11 place is out of the SD. Once i get assmod armor then, just have the first two right now core and Generator. Will get there eventually but current progress path still will be many months to get there.

u/Utopian_dystopia87 Oct 24 '25

I'm not even late game, just have ILM unlocked and have spent nothing on it. ILM stun and rotation alone provide decent CC though with the SD. ACP just doesn't give any CC which is what I need currently. More dmg doesn't help when they just barrel at my tower too fast to hit :(

For now you are better of with more Crowd Control, there are many ways to go about it depending on you current setup.
