I was thinking the other day how every race has 2 different defense tower varations except NE. (I dont count the melee buildings) the only defense tower is a slow attacking, expensive, plus it cost a wisp. This makes defending against air units difficult.
So do you guys think NE could use another defense tower? Maybe a cheap, low damage, fast attack speed, and doesnt cost a wisp? Or would that break the game lol
Orcs have 1, if you don’t count bunkers. But if you do count them, then you should count NElf’s ancients as well.
And Humans have 3 
Only undead has 2 
But personally I wouldn’t mind seeing more stuff added to the game.
Humans are the “tower race” with the most variety, durability and ease of mass/quick construction.
Undead towers are also their supply buildings and have utility in the Nerubian tower.
Orcs are a bit of a mix of human and undead. Supply building burrows defending workers and attacking enemies. While their normal towers are long range and take up the same space as human towers.
Night Elf buildings cave your bloody head in with their tree fists! While the Ancient Protector is not as strong overall as the other races towers it can uproot and it can eat trees to repair. Another key thing about the Night Elves is a strong part of their defensive ability is their Moon Wells.
Each race has its own defensive strengths, night elves don’t really need a second tower as they already have a good tool box.
Yaa moonwells are strong for NE defense. Im mainly just thinking about giving NE a better option to deal with air harras. (Im not even a NE player for 1v1)
Thats fair, I do think Ancient Protectors could be buffed a tiny bit without breaking them. They take up more space than a normal tower and don’t give supply like a Ziggurat.
I’m guessing by air harass you mean Bat Riders 
I doubt we will see a new tower for NE but Ancient Protectors should take up a little less space and fire 15-20% faster to make up for it.
While not capable of attacking the Moon Wells are one of the best support-defenses in the game, healing wisps or your defending units.
Obviously the Ancients attack, move and can eat trees for HP.
the ancients is vulnerable to ranged attackers. the night elves should get a normal tower to improve their defenses. it makes sense from a lore point of view as well. they also have room for it on the build menu.
Overall all Night Elves structures with all upgrades has very low HP. Sometimes you lose half of your base just because of aoe when 2 teams fights.
I thing that is very wrong that Moon Priestess can destroy half of your base with Moon Fire if your enemy is also Night Elves.
So yes, Night Elves should get defense tower. Just like that one standing currently on Darkshores Warfront.
Yaa I dont expect to see it ever happen, i just wanted to see what people thought. And I was just thinking how the towers taking up so much space is another negative for them.
I wouldn’t mind if Ancient Protectors could get a side-grade option, like to add splash to their attacks or something. But otherwise I think they’re in a good position, they’re the only race with towers that can move.
That, and wyvern, plus its easier for frost wyrms to freaze since there are so few of them. Fewer numbers also means ground seige units can take out faster. Its also harder to deal with zeppelin harrass.
I think, Night Elf buildings are definitely not too weak. Either perfectly balanced or even slightly imba/imbalanced/OP.
they are not overpowered when they suffers against an army. i once had a test of ancient protectors(2 large rows of them, more than 10 total) against an army and they got destroyed.
I’m just saying Night elf’s has the best defense in the game must not be using them right if you are going broke.
they do not. human towers works much better. i have tested the game a lot after all.
Maybe he was talking about the Moon Wells?
moon wells is useful when defending with units but, useless when using structures.
I would like to point out that cannon towers currently suck, grubby even mentioned this in a recent video of his where he built like 8 of them at his expo against elf and they did barely any damage except to dryads, they are just too slow
Should they start monkeying with a 20 year old game?
