One great way is to look out for enemies that place their HQ right in the back with little to no defense. This attack is best used against defense buildings that are placed close together, so look out for those opportunities and avoid setting up weak defenses.įlares can be used to direct your troops to focus fire on specific buildings, or direct them into bindspot positions that do not get attacked. It’s good to trigger the mines and boom mines to avoid the losses of your units, however the Barrage attack does damage to your friendly units as well. Similar to Artillery, barrage is a more of an AoE (Area of Effect) attack that deals damage to buildings in a wider radius. This works the opposite way as well to make sure your defensive buildings are not placed too close to each other. You could use the Artillery to trigger the mine and boom mines.Īlways use the Artillery attacks against defenses that have placed two buildings together.

So you should always be sure not to fire them while your troops are next to the buildings.
#Boom beach landing craft max level upgrade#
You can upgrade the damage of Gunboats via the Armory.Īrtillery deals splash damage to all unit types including your own troops. You can upgrade the starting energy of Gunboats by upgrading the gunboats themselves. Below is a list of them and how you can take advantage of these battle actions.

Your gunboat has a few actions that can help or break your Boom Beach invasion. You want to place Medic right behind units that may get attacked, however you want to make sure to leave enough spacing so that they are not targetted by enemy defenses. The Medic heals other troops by throwing Medkits towards them. The Medic is the last of the available troops in Boom Beach. The best way to use Tanks effectively is to use them in a group, however it may be smart to use Heavy or Rifleman as support when attacking Sniper Towers and Cannons. It moves slowly while taking and dealing lots of damage. In addition, they are great as long as they break through the initial enemy defenses as they heal themselves with every blow. The Warrior moves very fast where they are possible to run through light defenses. In addition, a mine’s explosion can easily take out a group of Zooka units. It should note that because they have really weak defenses, all defenses can easily kill them. Make sure that you drop them with a good timing so that they have a buffer distance. The best way to use them is to accompany with other tanky units such as Heavy. However, she has low hitpoints and can tank very little damage. The zooka is equipped with a large rocket launcher which deals massive damage. However, they are weak against cannons or defenses that deal tons of damage. You generally want to deploy Heavy before your other lower HP units so that they draw enemy first first. However, they have little DPS in terms of damage output. They have higher HP compared to other units and is used as a shield. The Heavy is the second of the available troops in Boom Beach. However, they are weak against mortars which deal AoE area of effects damage which can deal higher DPS against lumped groups of riflemen.

Rifleman units are the best against Cannons or defenses with slow rate of fire. They are the “zerg” units of Boom Beach, the best strategy is to deploy a large numbers of them. The Rifleman is the first of the available troops in Boom Beach. Red light: The maximum Troop capacity is not yet reached on this Landing Craft.īelow is the levels of the landing craft and the troops capacity that they hold.

Yellow light: New Troops are being trained. Green light: The Troops in your Landing Craft are ready. The landing crafts can have different lights on it noting the status of the troops. You can still use a Landing Craft while the upgrade is ongoing, but you cannot load new troops in it. When you change the unit type from the landing craft, the cost of the current troops will be refunded. The landing craft can hold one troops types at a time, so you can only get a mixture troops strategy at a later time when you have built more landing crafts. Upgrading the landing craft increases its troops capacity. You can train and store your units through the Boom Beach landing craft. We will not discuss the tactics or unit drop strategies for this guide. However, please note that this guide is written for beginners as a generic overview summary of Boom Beach troops. In this guide, we will go over the basic technical ways to boost the power of your troops. Building out your troops and attack is key to expand your base island in Boom Beach.
