Broot (Boss)

Broot
Description	Slow and heavy. When HP drops under 25%, it goes into rage and runs slower for 8 seconds. When in rage, regenerates its HP with 50% of damage taken.
First appears in level	1.8

Broot is the first boss in Infinitode 2. It is not clear what it is supposed to resemble.

Broot has over 100 times more health than a standard enemy on the same wave and moves at a low speed of 0.4 tile a second. When its health drops below 25%, it goes into a rage for 16 seconds, during which it moves 30% slower (0.28 t/s) and heals 50% of the damage it takes. Broot deals 100 damage to the base, which usually ends the game.

Strategy

Broot is the easiest boss to deal with. It is a single-unit enemy, which makes single-target towers such as Sniper and Minigun particularly effective against it. The rage period does not make dealing with the boss noticeably more difficult but can cement the player's defeat if the boss gets too close to the base. Broot is immune to the Freezing debuff but not the Throwback debuff, although with a boss like Broot you don't need a Blast anyway. Like other bosses, it takes 90% less damage from abilities. Ball lightning's damage is further reduced by another 90%, resulting in a pathetic 1% of its normal damage output.

Opening the level

ADVINAS: On this level, you'll meet the first boss.
ADVINAS: It is slow, heavy, and simple, but don't think it'll be easy to deal with him, so be prepared.
ADVINAS: Destroy it and I'll report to Ensor mainframe about your success. That will get you access to the next set of levels and towers.
ADVINAS: I was analyzing your progress and I can say that there's a high chance of success. Can't wait to see what will be opened for us next!

Wave 37

Ensor Inc.: Few waves left until the boss! Prepare your defense: we need to make it past.

Wave 41

ADVINAS: Finally! A new step in my existence - lots of new opportunities. I've been waiting for it for so long!
ADVINAS: Ensor framework has given us access to the new stage of levels, but it requires a lot of Green Papers.
ADVINAS: …and it seems like I found something even more interesting. Let's proceed to the next stage so I can tell you more.
