How to Complete “Skeletor Decrypts Encrypted!”
You can watch the full walkthrough above to see the exact placements and upgrades used to complete this chapter effortlessly. This mission takes place in a Magic-only zone, but the setup is simple and extremely effective. Here’s the optimized strategy:
- Continuously activate Obyn’s Brambles ability whenever it becomes available. It provides reliable support throughout the round.
- Upgrade every Druid to 0-2-4 so they can buff each other with Heart of Vengeance synergy and generate strong group damage.
- Inside the Magic-only area, place an Alchemist and upgrade it to 4-2-0. This ensures all your monkeys receive powerful attack buffs for higher damage output.
- Place a Super Monkey in each corner and upgrade both to 2-0-3. Their laser vision and knockback provide excellent coverage and control.
- That’s all — with this setup in place, victory is guaranteed.
