Yeah, it's possible they will. But I've seen them walk around long corners and wall strips to get at enclosed boxes. Right now given that there are no T-junctions on my maze at all and the maze itself is open, my money is on them not detonating there.
We shall see!
e: honestly my biggest problem is that I get attacked like once a day so I can't test anything. I need to make a low level account just to test stuff ;)
ok, i'm pretty sure i have a design that will prevent wall breakers from attacking my walls:

Well done! I'm pretty sure it would take at least 50 wallbreakers to get through that behemoth!Quote:

Pommie, the low level nooblet however, is going to experiment with said reverse spikes @ a distance of 3-5 squares & see how that goes.
She never has much tanked anyway, so the mistakes won't hurt there as much.

This little Potato loved her spikes. *boo hoo*
I'm trying mazes along the outside of the base as well. I have a channel around each side of the base with entrances at the top and bottom. Unfortunately behind the entrance is a corner of the core that the WB might deem a target. No one has used WB against me since the update, so I can't give any feedback yet. Malfesto in clan Reddit Juliet if you want to have a look.Quote:

With my resources tanked & left out as bait, it wasn't long before trouble came a-knocking on maggie's door:

My adversary, as you can see, favours an en masse deployment oh his wallies - all 10 (L4) of them were sent in that single tap of his finger.
I cleaned him out of quite a fair bit, so I don't blame him, really...

A few of them - spud knows how many, it was hard to keep count in that mess of intertwining sweaty sumos & running skeletons - have blown an (approximately) 4 tile hole through my main wall.
One can also observe here, that the remaining wallies ran straight ahead towards the next wall (look past the billowing smoke), totally ignoring the inverted spikes within
- kinda like how I have been ignored in the Best Avatar Poll.

My second wall has been breached! Oh no!
I was already hyperventilating here - one more wall to each DE nirvana (sorta)!

One lone L4 wallie left against a L8 wall - will he prevail?

Obviously not... this, my dear friends, is why one must always max out one's defences. :o
Excuse the pink fluffy heart it's the only way this IT nooblet knows how to black out notty bits on pictures...
Shoutout to Dan: The answer is no. In the hands of a skilled / max-levelled attacker, my core is not unreachable.

This little Potato is too lazy to open new threads to clutter up an already chaotic Forum board, so she's posting her findings here instead. :)
Awesome post maggi :oQuote:

Adding your post to the New WB Discussion thread. :o
My maze still hasn't been attacked, but I saw a few other mazes last night and made a point of attacking them. Wallbeakers will definitely gravitate to T joints on a maze regardless of if those T joints enclose anything. Still waiting to see if open mazes with floating strips draw them.
I have only found segmenting confuses them, once the blow a whole in it, they go a little hay-wire.
