The Ascent is the final chapter of the Quest of the Skywardens Tale in BTD6. After completing Verdant Fields and Frozen Wastes, this chapter brings the Skywarden story to its conclusion.
The chapter gives you plenty of money to work with, allowing you to build multiple Skywardens and experiment with their different upgrade paths. The entire Tale can be completed without Monkey Knowledge.
How to Beat The Ascent
Step 1: Place Your Skywarden
Start the chapter by placing your Skywarden in a position where it has good coverage of the track.
Since this is the final chapter, you will have considerably more money available than in the earlier parts of the Tale.
Step 2: Upgrade Your Skywarden
Use your starting cash to upgrade the Skywarden and improve its damage.
Follow the upgrade order shown in the video guide to make the most of your available money and get the required upgrades at the right time.
Step 3: Add More Skywardens
As you earn additional cash, place more Skywardens around the map.
One of the advantages of The Ascent is the amount of money available, allowing you to use multiple Skywardens rather than relying on a single tower. You can also combine different upgrade paths to give your defense more versatility.
Step 4: Strengthen Your Defense
Continue upgrading your Skywardens as the rounds become more difficult.
Focus your spending on the Skywardens instead of unnecessarily adding other towers. The goal of the chapter is to give you plenty of opportunities to use the new tower and its upgrade paths.
Step 5: Complete The Ascent
Keep adding and upgrading Skywardens until your defense is strong enough to handle the remaining rounds.
Once you complete the final round, The Ascent is finished and the Quest of the Skywardens Tale is complete.
