Emberward Towers: Stats, Sizes & Enhancements
Search 55 Emberward tower configurations by element and footprint. Compare base costs, damage, range and available enhancement descriptions.
Compare 55 enabled tower configurations by damage type and footprint, then search a name or attack effect. Base damage alone is not a DPS ranking: continuous attacks, ammunition and special mechanics can change how a tower performs.
Values are configuration defaults before relics, upgrades or other modifiers. A tier is a game-data field, not a quality rating. Zero or absent stats are omitted. Enhancement text is shown where the game supplies a separate description; it does not list every stat change.

Enhancement text
Enhancement A
Removes the machine gun, allowing you to build a 2x2 tower in its place (but not another Fort Tower). The tower built on top of the fort gains +3 Range and is immune to Malfunction.
Enhancement B
Converts to Ice damage and applies 1 stack of Chill with each attack. Encases the tower in freezing ice. All enemies within 2 tiles will have at least 2 stacks of Chill.
Sentry Tower
If no monsters come within this tower's attack range for 3 seconds, it will enter Alert Mode. If a monster enters the attack range while the tower is in Alert Mode, its attack speed immediately increases to 200% and gradually decreases over 5 seconds.

Creates lava around the Volcano Tower, which deals an additional 20% damage per second to monsters passing through it. Magma orb explosions also create lava on the ground.
Enhancement B
Each Explosion within attack range reduces the firing cooldown by 0.1 seconds, up to a maximum reduction of 50%.

How to use the comparison
Start with the footprint you can build, then choose an attack role. Cannon Tower describes a small explosion area; Lightning Tower describes bouncing chain lightning; Frost Tower describes a continuous nearby chill effect. Those descriptions are more useful than comparing a single damage value across different attack types.
Why is Scrap Tower not an unlimited cheap solution?
The extracted description specifies 20 ammo and no gold from recycling. Its low configured cost should be read alongside that limitation.
How do enhancements affect the element?
Some separate enhancement descriptions explicitly switch damage type. The filter shows the base element. Read the enhancement text and compare relic effects before treating an upgraded tower as the same damage family.
