I don't understand why they keep making melee towers the same price for late game towers. It's obvious that most melee towers are not that good during late game and are meant to clear out early-mid waves
the problem is in reverse actually: if a melee tower IS good for lategame, it would just destroy all waves so fast that it doesn't matter what is in it.
For real bro I payed 600 robux like an idiot for a tower I thought would be good for early to late game just to get completely scammed for a tower meant for mid to late game
I really liked that slasher was both a melee and ranged tower, and cheap to place down, It made it more versatile. Now It just kinda doesn't feel worth it to place down and use for that price, and now it's mostly just an expensive warden with DOT instead of Stun. It didn't have to lose it's unique mechanic of knife throwing.
I see this as more of a nerf. I was able to solo fallen before with slasher, but now I cant. Since they removed multi hit he cannot handle anything with more than 5 enemies and he also costs WAY too much. Hopefully he gets buffed soon maybe when the next nights come out.
i dont get why they keep making melee towers so expensive to place down, whats the point of using slasher mid game when other towers do a way better job at early/mid game, and every melee tower is bad late game
For real now slasher is basically a more expensive version of warden without stunning capabilities and on top of that slasher doesn’t even have piercing or knife throw anymore making the tower a lot worse for late game crowds
I do not like this new rework, I feel like the point of slasher was a pretty good early-mid game tower to clear off swarms while doing decent damage to tanks, i soloed molten with just slasher on crossroads but now it costs SOOO much to place which took away the point of placing him id rather use that money for any other good tower, and where the heck did the knife throwing ability go? It was what made him different from all the other melee towers, overall and pretty bad rework.
Slasher lost his throw ability so that was a bad change i guess if they will add it later it will be so good as the older versions now its just a late game gladiator
They could've keep the chainsaw and make It actually automatic. The bleed stacks cap higher etc. And mske him toss knifes to finish enemies in a 5% hp thereshold while a bit afar of his range. It would've been good and worth the 32k. Imagine thst thing doing ticks of 11 with idk 70 bleed stacks plus 3x crit
The reason why melee towers had low price points was due to them being powerfull for an cheap cost and not an big investment. Now they try to make em as expensive as lategame towers and it does not work.

IMO Slasher isnt even an early game anymore Its a mid to lategame tower that has genuine boss kill viability I tested it with a friend against Patient Zero and I dont mean to say this lightly... we only had about 10 max slashers by the end (DJ, Comma, Medic supports) and they destroyed Patient Zero within mere seconds.
Slasher is good but not for solo. If someone farms for it and set him on strongest it definetly does kill that one strong and tanky enemy that you wanna kill. That being said.... it needs a significant range buff
I would only recommend it for niche cases. But to be honest, it's not good, nor bad, just outclassed. Brawler, warden, gladiator are generally better options for melee towers.
Slasher was GOOD before the “buff” it could’ve been used as a replacement for gladiator because of the nerf to multi hit on glad but infinite hits on slasher. But they removed that. Cmon devs please fix 🙏
When I first saw the new slasher in day one, I actually legit thought that it was a new tower called needler cus I couldn’t see its knife and thought it throws needles
why do the devs make a tower used for early game 1.5k to place? They did that with warden and sledger. Now I don't have any melee towers for the early game, gladiator is the only melee tower for early waves that is affordable. They kinda nerfed slasher with this… Hopefully they add back the multi-hit of the old slasher later on. edit: i forgot brawler exists, but u get my point.
@@CooperJones-qj6ds but now it has no purpose. It plays the exact role of warden, but it has no stun immunity, costs more, can not stun, and it is so much harder to get.
Warden preformes amazing in early waves, wdym? However you are right with sledger being a little underwhelming in the early game, but it was so much better as it was cheaper. The new one is a lot more expensive.
Personally, I didn't like this rework because, unlike the old one, this is just another melee tower with high damage. The old one was fine and all, but we already have the Brawler and the Warder. The only good thing about the new one is the bleed effect, which provides decent DPS, but I loved the previous Slasher because it was great for early defense. Its knife-throwing ability was quite useful, and its DPS was much better than the current one because, despite having less damage, it had a much faster attack speed. It could even outperform the Gladiator with its buff (without Commander), plus it was very cheap and could deliver excellent DPS. This Slasher... left a lot to be desired.
Not gonna lie the only problem with tds games is tô make an tower decent and also make the game harder (removing the grindy part that most kill td games)

Every update the stutter gets worse. I like the rework, I thought too that setting it to strongest is better so it has time to stack up damage on the enemies that needed it, but its early game is pretty meh due to its cost. hes only really good maxed. The price might be justified if they kept his throwing knife ability
I've noticed that in Elites comment section, it's just complaining, nothing more nothing less. I've never seen this level of bitching anywhere else before, kinda impressive and sad at the same time
i had slasher og and in the 5 years of owning the tower it was never good untill they gave it a small buff right after they sold it with a gamepass. And now with the rework its back to being useless . 1.5k placement? yeah buddy sure. Compare that to other over 1k placement towers. They all make this look like a april fools joke
Guys i have a question which I didn’t understand. For the premium pass, do i just spend 500 rbx on it and i unlock it or i have to buy the pass and buy all the other tiers? Also, what is the best grinding mode for candy corn?
I hate how they removed his knife throw that was so unique
Yea I really liked that abt him made him different of all others but bleeding good too
Critical hits go hard
So isnt bleeding is something new? The knife throw is kinda boring(my opinion)
@kimbichly the knife throw was unique they could've kept it
@kimbichly slasher was a good crowd control tower
I like more the old ability since was unique.
Now slasher is just a warden but with bleed debuff instead of stun
True. Before the update slasher had its knife throw and fast fire rate. Now it's just warden but funny bleed stack.
