Tips & Strategy[]

  • The ability to summon countless Fungal Zombies allows the Legendary Shaman to create massive armies. ( Although there are bug caps now )
  • Using a Bug Banner will buff your Fungal Zombies making your army much more resilient and deadly.
  • The Legendary Shaman's passive is a large part of his play-style, so he becomes much more powerful as you master him.

- ElementalChaos

  • Goliath Stickbug Legendary Shaman's staff launches balls of explosive energy, dealing damage and knocking back enemies.
  • Goliath Stickbug Legendary Shaman manages late game heavy armor foe(s) decently with Lightning, especially when equipping Needle Rounds and/or Nail Rounds; complementing Piercing Scroll of the Broken Foot - debuff can be offset with Speed Scroll.
  • When cornered, Frost is the first best answer, Goliath Stickbug Legendary Shaman stuns the foe(s) and buffs own Heavy Armor.
  • For simple Voodoo fun of Chaos and Mayhem, consider equipping Fungus Charm, along with Stun ScrollVampiric Scroll and Poison Scroll of the Broken Foot - debuff can be neutralized with Speed Scroll.
  • Damage Scroll scales Mushroom buff a little more effectively; higher Max HP sings well with Health Scroll.
  • Goliath Stickbug Legendary Shaman equipping Totem and Snake Teeth is a decent early game creep support.
  • Goliath Stickbug Legendary Shaman's item Snake Teeth and skills Totem and Lightning buff and debuff bonds well with ranged creeps; such as Slime Quarters Shooter Snail, Mercenary Camp Firepower and War Snail.
  • Totem buff stacks. Placing Totem in proximity at important choke-point or objective point to have stack-buffed creeps; Totem can be targeted by foe(s).
  • Creates a wall with a line of totem buffed ice armored Fungal Zombies; early game Hungry Bug cleans up any forms of allied creeps masses well with their 100 Armor Piercing invincible attack cycle; late game Fungal Zombies are mere cannon-fodders to buy time for Mushroom cultivation and skills cooldown.
  • Mastery of Goliath Stickbug Legendary Shaman in large is in the rationing of Mushroom;  Upgrade: Adept helps significantly.
  • Have at least 2 farms of Mushroom in base; useful in times of resurrection and provides time to recultivate a new farm; Turret: Shroom Farm stacks with Mushroom, allowing a steady generous serving of fungal madness. Do note all leftover fungus is not saved in continued games...
  • As with all addiction, after a 'high', there is a 'low'; Goliath Stickbug Legendary Shaman with no Mushroom farm is in for a lot of trouble late game...
  • Goliath Stickbug Legendary Shaman attracts more powerful enemy bugs early...

Player Description and Analysis[]

Who wouldn't want to flood the screen with Fungal Zombies, shock baddies to death with lightning or freeze them in an icy prison? Who wouldn't want to place an awesome-looking totem that spawns zombies and gives buffs, or eat a few Mushrooms and become powerful enough to kill a Siege Snail in one hit?

Good ol' Stickbug can do all of that. Good ol' Stickbug has great knockback and has great health for his character type. Good ol' Stickbug can handle any situation with relative ease. Lanky, shambling Stickbug possesses a repertoire of powerful spells and equipment that makes most challenges look like a joke. Pair him up with a character like Moth or Honeybee, and you have an unstoppable duo that wipes the floor with competition.

Stickbug has average damage and speed, but he also has great health, better than every hero except Hamster and Tarantula. This is one key part of why he is so powerful. Really good support characters like Honeybee or Termite are balanced by their low health, but Stickbug only has a tad lower damage and DPS than Mantis, Hamster, and Mouse, but it doesn't even matter, because he has knockback second to no other hero, and his Totems easily boost his damage to their level.

I could go on and on about each of Stickbug's abilities, but I only need to give you a taste. If you are patient, growing a little farm of Mushrooms makes Stickbug so powerful the enemy type doesn't even matter. Lightning and Frost reduce crowds to smithereens, and Totems help allies protect the Food Stash with damage and health buffs as well as zombie backup.'

Stemming from the fact Stickbug is a shaman, or probably because he is one, Stickbug is a great hunter-gatherer. He enjoys the three-slot backpack all Legendaries possess, and can also destroy any threats to your Food Stash away from home. So have fun with this zany, ridiculous, and powerful caster hero, and make sure all their base are belong to us.
