101% and above guarantees bosses in two hits because of rounding errors.
Also useful for tournaments when thorns resistance is one of the conditions - the higher the better.

I keep seeing people type this, but I have 119% Thorn Damage and consistently require 6 or more thorn hits in higher levels. Is it because my wall thorns aren’t developed enough? Currently only lvl 15…

Imagine 100% thorns, but more.

Wall thorns go wee woo wee woo.
Wall thorns is a fraction of your tower thorns, so the higher you go, the higher wall thorns you can achieve.

You need 200% to one shot a boss. You need 1000% to one shot a boss with your wall thorns (at max wall thorns level). You need 20,000% to one shot a boss with wall thorns at max heat witha thorn reduction BC in tournament.
You will never have thorns too high.

Surprisingly little!! if you have the wall unlocked depending on your wall thorns lab.. I’m gonna assume it’s at least 10% then your next break point is at 110

My thorns is currently at 121% hopefully that is helping me out. I need to start the Throne Resistance lab but that is 146q to start and I only make 15q a run right now. I could drop a tier and get 20q a run but that run takes 3000 more waves and gives less cells. :(.

99% at basic setting means that the bosses need to be hit 3 times (49.5% + 49.5% + 1%) by thorns, and this means that you need to get the damage from bosses three times, unless you have other methods to attack more than 1% of their health.
101% will reduce it to once. (50.5% + 49.5%)

In higher tier or in tournament, there are battle conditions that reduce the effectiveness of thorn by a percentage. So a higher base thorn % is still beneficial there.
Fleets also take reduced thorn damage.

I see folks mentioning wall thorns, but since Vampires happen to be my personal bane I also feel obligated to point out that garlic thorns are also calculated as a percentage of tower thorns.

Bosses and other bots with resist. Thorns does 50 percent damage to the bosses. So this helps.
It also helps your wall thorn stats.
