Gameplay Tips

 * Going prone within the Tesla Tower's area-of-effect will prevent the Helldiver being targeted by its lightning strikes.


 * The Tesla Tower will not target objectives such as the Launchpad or Geological Survey, making it one of the better defensive options for defending them against Bugs. Not as effective against Cyborgs or Illuminate as they have multiple ranged units which can destroy the Tesla Tower.


 * No enemies are safe from the Tesla Tower's lethal bolts; even Cyborg IFVs and the Bugs' heavily armoured Tanks, Impalers and Behemoths will be neutralized in a few hits (if the Tesla Tower survives long enough).


 * Tesla Towers will disappear after about 150 seconds if not destroyed.
