Dusekkar Tower - Retro Tower Defense
Dusekkar Legendary support guide: shield and buff radius, Forest Mage Dusekkar Forsaken shop skin (800 Player Points / Tokens), and why it stays A-tier in August 2026.
Last updated: September 2026
Dusekkar Support Kit
Dusekkar is a Legendary support who shields and buffs the frontline during boss waves. Helper Bot still wins the S-tier support slot for loadout-wide damage and range. Dusekkar is the survival specialist you bring when Citadel Hard or Endless bosses delete unshielded tiles.
Place Dusekkar so the shield radius covers your Heroic and Gunner, not Tycoon. A shielded farm tower does not save a leak. On Forsaken Void, stand him one tile behind the DPS cluster so the staff line still reaches the lane tanks.
The DUSEKKAR promo code still grants 50 Tix. It does not unlock the tower. Summon Legendary odds or trade a duplicate after you already own Helper Bot.
Forest Mage Dusekkar Is a Skin
The Forsaken collab shop sells Forest Mage Dusekkar as a cosmetic (800 Player Points on the Forsaken listing, Forsaken Tokens inside Retro Tower Defense). It does not convert Dusekkar into the Forest Mage Heroic poison kit.
Buy the skin after Home Turf is done and Clean Sweep is in progress, so Tokens are not wasted on filler rows. If you want the actual Forest Mage Heroic, use monthly quests and the summon banner—not this shop SKU.
Reappearance skins such as Ghosdeeri Dusekkar come from a Heroic returning to the banner, not from the collab. Do not confuse those with the limited Forest Mage shop row.
Loadout Notes
Core: Heroic DPS + Gunner + Helper Bot + Dusekkar on Hard bosses. Drop Dusekkar for a second DPS on Crossroads Normal Tix farms.
Traits that extend shield duration or buff radius pay more than raw damage traits on this unit. TRAITS+SECRETS has expired; use leftover rerolls only after the Heroic trait is set.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Dusekkar better than Helper Bot? +
No for general DPS. Helper Bot is S-tier support. Dusekkar is A-tier survival for boss-heavy maps.
How do I get Forest Mage Dusekkar? +
Buy it in the Forsaken collab shop with Tokens before September 4, 2026. It is not a badge skin.
Does the DUSEKKAR code give the tower? +
No. DUSEKKAR gives 50 Tix. The tower comes from Legendary summons or trades.
Is Forest Mage Dusekkar the Heroic? +
No. Forest Mage Heroic is a separate unit. The shop row is a Dusekkar cosmetic.
Where do I place Dusekkar? +
Behind the DPS cluster so shields cover Mage/Noli/Doombringer and Gunner, not the farm tile.
