Tech Bot is helpful on towers and heroes that have spammable abilities. Every money-generating ability is among the best candidates for Tech Bot (but turn off [[Spirit of the Forest (Battles 2)|Spirit of the Forest]]'s life regeneration ability, unless life gains are intended). [[Obyn Greenfoot (Battles 2)|Obyn Greenfoot]]'s Brambles and [[Ocean Obyn (Battles 2)|Ocean Obyn]]'s Living Coral both benefit from automation, as the optimal strategy for both abilities are almost always to activate them off cooldown. Players running [[Overclock (Battles 2)|Overclock]] to boost Farms may also benefit from Tech Bot. | |||
