Death Defy
Death Defy is a chance of ignoring the killing blow to the Tower. When it triggers the Tower turns red.
Activation Priority[edit | edit source]
The Energy Shield Card is one of 3 abilities that automatically prevent death. Each work together by activating in a specific order. In case of the fatal damage game will go through them in the following order:
- Death Defy: Triggers first. If activated none of the next abilities will activate since the tower does not take damage.
Energy Shield: If Death Defy fails and an Energy Shield charge is available, Second Wind will not activate because no damage is taken.
Second Wind: If Death Defy fails and Energy Shield does not have a charge, Second wind will activate.
Combining all those abilities will help with finishing Event Mission to trigger 2/3/5 Death Defy in a single run, because if Death Defy fails, there are backup options that allow the tower to survive the fatal hit and try to trigger death defy on the next one.
