Tip#3: Farm them Kozu, How-to


It seems like an obvious one when you get to the world map, but just in case it's not I'll state it for ya: (almost)never take over a Kozu base for an outpost! There's some rare circumstances in which you may want to replace a Kozu with one of your outposts, but keep in mind Kozu tribes are the best for farming resources!

~World View

Now... With that being said, here's a quick guide with some pretty pictures (paint is still relevant!) on how I like to raid a Kozu tribe while trying to keep my goo usage to an absolute minimum.




Level 42 Kozu Tribe.

I attack with my champ (lvl 6 Gorgo) from the North represented by the direction of that high budget CGI circle/arrow.

After my champ destroys the first 4 obstacles, he heads NE towards the Sniper Tower. I then send in a wave of 10 Ichi and 10 Banditos. The Ichi are to head South and East to destroy those Tesla Towers to clear the way for a Zafreeti I'm about to send in, and the Banditos are to head East to destroy that Housing to make room for another 10 pack of Ichi.

Circled you can see the 10 other Ichi I send in while my Gorgo draws fire from that Sniper Tower and Tesla Tower. I Accidentally sent in 11 though, and because of my OCD I raged XD.

Circled is the Zafreeti I send in, which will eventually head North-East to start healing my Gorgo.





Normally I would have to send my Gorgo back to finish it off. If Gorgo could use it, I may also send in another Zafreeti which would raise his total health during the attack ~another good tip on how to heal your champ ;)

It's also worth mentioning that when I sent my Gorgo in the first wave he was a little less than 3/4 health, and after the second wave with the Zafreeti he was almost completely healed. This is a good way to heal your champ for continual attacks.

Summary
21 Ichi (x24,000ea) 504,000
2 Zafreeti (x468,000ea) 936,000
10 Bandito (x14,400ea) 144,000
Total Goo 1,584,000

A lvl 42 Kozu tribe will usually yield around the following:
Twigs 5,000,000
Pebbles 5,000,000
Putty 5,000,000
Goo 2,500,00

A lvl 33 Kozu tribe will yield around the following (I got the following result with only a lvl 6 Gorgo Bonus 2 which took about 70,514 dmg):
Twigs 3,811,558
Pebbles 4,127,739
Putty 4,160,838
Goo 2,037,823

A lvl 36 Kozu tribe will yield around the following (I got the following result with only a lvl 6 Gorgo Bonus 2 which took about 60,381 dmg):
Twigs 6,095,945
Pebbles 5,439,345
Putty 5,388,785
Goo 2,837,197

Depending on the level of the Kozu tribe that you are raiding, you can adjust how many units
you send in. Note the reason for the waves (ie. removing towers to protect Zafreeti).

I've only ever used a Gorgo for this so if you have another champ I would imagine things may be a bit different. If you do things differently let me know!

  2. I use a Level 6 Drull and two Zafreeti. Launch from the SW (bottom) corner of the screen, where five level 10 RGs are guarded by a tesla and laser, on any level Kozu above 33. If the Drull starts the attack injured, the Zafs will almost completely heal him before he gets out of that immediate area, simply because it takes so long to munch through the RGs.

    The Zafs usually die after a couple of minutes, but by that point the Drull can level the rest of the base on his own, so the total goo expenditure is 648,000 less than the method you describe above. For Level 33 Kozu yards, a maxed-out, fully healed Drull can level the entire base without assistance, reducing the goo cost to zero. Just drop him next to the silo at the western edge of the base and come back to the computer in a few minutes. B]
