Skill Cannon

Summary

The Skill Cannon is a Unique Building that appears exclusively during the Gunboat Crab event.
The Skill Cannon incorporates Gunboat Weaponry into its attacks, indicated by the Skill Cannon's suffix and appearence, with Artillery, Barrage and Shock among possible variants.
- All deployed Gunboat Weaponry are at level 1. The structures themselves are affected by Building Health Ice Statues, but are not subject to Defensive Building Damage bonuses.
Skill Cannons replace the Cryo Bomb during the event.

Visual Appeareance

The Skill Cannon is a compact, round defensive building made of grey metal with a sturdy base. It has a short, wide barrel pointing upwards, designed to lob Gunboat Abilities over long distances.
On its side, each Skill Cannon displays a colored panel indicating its specialization: one is painted blue with an Artillery Icon, another is green with a Barrage Icon, and the third is yellow with a Shock Bomb Icon.

Offensive Strategy

Skill Cannons will always target the largest group, so keep an eye on them, as their massive range and lack of blindspot makes them difficult to approach.
Skill Cannon Shock can be considered a more dangerous Shock Launcher. Despite not inflicting damage, it has a longer stun duration and superior range.

Trivia

The Skill Cannon's appearance and behavior are inspired by the Eagle Artillery from Clash of Clans, a defensive structure known for launching artillery salvos at extreme range.
Skill Cannon is the first Damage-dealing Defense which is immune against the effects from Universal Remote and Remote Hack.
Skill Cannon Shock is the only Skill Cannon that has a slower attack rate and only hits ground units.
