Details
Gold Magnet costs 200 Sun to plant, carries 300 toughness, and deals every 5 Seconds over a range of Adjacent lanes against all zombies. Its fusion heritage blends its parent plants’ best offensive and utility traits into a unified combat model suited to sustained lane presence.
Its consistent attack interval ensures a predictable damage clock in whatever lane it occupies. Plant it in the column where zombie breakthroughs are most common to ensure its firepower is always applied to the highest-priority threats.
Pros
- Steady damage output — per every 5 Seconds provides consistent lane pressure without situational conditions.
- Good range — over a range of Adjacent lanes coverage keeps zombies engaged from an early, safe distance.
- Fusion balance — Inherits complementary traits from both parent plants for a well-rounded attack profile.
Cons
- Lacks specialization — No standout mechanic gives it an edge in the scenarios where specialist fusions shine.
- Needs support — 300 toughness requires at least one tanky plant in front to stay healthy.
- Mid-range ceiling — Competitive with common threats but outclassed by premium fusions in endgame content.
1
Put Gold Magnet in the lane with the most consistent zombie traffic each level — its attack cycle needs continuous activation to stay efficient.
2
A wall plant directly in front of Gold Magnet in the same row keeps it firing from a protected position for multiple waves.
3
Review any Lumos level bonuses active in your current run — bonus damage types may amplify Gold Magnet's output significantly.
