“

Got a bone to pick!?

”

The Bone Flingers are the third Ranged Tower to be introduced in Kingdom Rush: Vengeance, and is unlocked at the start of Jokull's Nest.

Description

"The only thing more terrifying than their insidious laughter is the incredible speed at which these skeletons fling bones at random enemies."

Rather than targeting the last or first enemy in range, Bone Flingers will randomly target any enemy in range.

Strategy

This tower is an extremely versatile tower. Its random targeting is a blessing in disguise; enemies such as the Ice Witch and the Devoted Priest can be removed relatively quickly with this tower. If this tower is placed far from the exit, upgrading base damage is advisable in order to wither down incoming hordes of unarmored enemies. In contrast, upgrading the tower's "Summon Bonem" and "The Walking Dead" is better at the end of the lane for two reasons; first, because the bone golem and the skeletons summoned can be fully used in conjunction with back-line barracks to stall enemies, and second, because the bone golem has a ranged attack that can be used against flying enemies which slip past your magic and ranged towers. Note that the skeleton walks down the path; placing this tower at the back will make full use of the skeletons.
