BOSSES is the next update to watch if you enjoy pushing higher waves with friends. Use the days before launch to strengthen a loadout you already like and organize your team’s damage, healing and defense.

How to prepare for the Boss update

  1. Upgrade your main weapon. Spend on a gun you regularly use before buying several alternatives. Shotgun’s first upgrade costs 1,250 Gems and raises DMG/S from 100 to 155.8; its first two levels cost 5,000 Gems combined.
  2. Choose a team role. Survivor brings Grenade, Barricade and Airstrike. Medic adds healing, while Engineer brings Repair, Turret and Overclock. Agree who handles each job before joining a run.
  3. Keep your currencies separate. Lobby weapon and class upgrades use Gems. During a run, cash pays for weapon progression, health and ability use. Plan both with the cash and upgrade guide.
  4. Practice regrouping. Use the temple approaches to maintain an escape route. Place barricades where they support the team’s firing position, and move together when monkeys push around the sides.

Classes and weapons to consider

Your goal Starting choice Why choose it?
Learn the game and save Gems Survivor Default class with damage, barricades and an Airstrike ultimate
Support a group Medic Medkit, Healing Pod and a team-heal ultimate; 15,000-Gem unlock
Maintain a defensive position Engineer Repair and Turret tools; 30,000-Gem unlock

For weapons, compare Shotgun, Minigun and Laser Cannon against your current Gem budget. Use the weapon database for base stats and the upgrade guide for target-level costs.

Our best weapons guide gives picks by budget and role. If you are collecting the new code reward, use the 10,000-Gem spending plans to choose between weapons, Survivor skills and saving for Medic.
