Kingdom Rush Vengeance TD+: Into the Mountains Impossible Guide

To beat Into the Mountains on Impossible difficulty in Kingdom Rush Vengeance TD+, anchor your defense at the central merge point before the exit, combine physical stall barricades with heavy magic damage, and continuously fly Dianyun across the split lanes to intercept armored waves and fast runners.

Establish the Central Convergence Choke

The northern and southern paths of Into the Mountains funnel into a single unified exit track. Building near the monster spawn portals divides your firepower across wide paths and leads to early leaks.

1. Secure the final intersection: Place your frontline stalling towers, such as Dark Knights or Orc Warriors Den, directly where the paths merge.
2. Add high-penetration damage: Flank your blockers with armor-melting magic, such as the Blazing Gem or Specters Mausoleum, to defeat heavily armored mountain infantry.
3. Cover swarms and flyers: Build Bone Flingers or Goblin Rocket Riders adjacent to the choke to thin out incoming swarms and target airborne units.
4. Upgrade primary damage first: Bring your core magic tower to level three before purchasing scattered level-one foundations across the outer lanes.

Dianyun Hero Micro and Skill Usage

Dianyun flies freely without terrain penalties, making the dragon essential for responding to alternate lane spawns. Because Dianyun lacks physical ground collision, you must keep ground blockers beneath the hero's flight path to hold enemies inside the damage radius.

• Thunderstorm timing: Save Dianyun's active lightning barrage ultimate for dense clusters of tanky mountain bruisers or sudden bursts of fast runners.
• Lane repositioning: Hover Dianyun slightly forward along the active lane to chip down approaching groups with automated chain lightning before they reach your ground troops.
• Stun utilization: Position Dianyun directly over tight corners to maximize the number of enemies disrupted by passive electrical discharges.

Threat Priorities and Counters

Impossible difficulty scales enemy armor and health pools significantly. Use the following counter pairings to prevent your defensive line from breaking:

Late-Stage Split Waves and Spell Management

During the final waves, high-threat hammer champions push the southern pass while casters and flyers rush the north.

• Maintain reserve containment: Upgrade Bone Flingers with Skeleton Barrage or summon Mausoleum gargoyles to create mobile barriers whenever primary blockers fall.
• Cross-lane redeployment: When one lane is under control, fly Dianyun directly over the peak to intercept bypassing runners on the opposite path.
• Save fallback spells: Cast player spells, such as Soul Impact and summoned reinforcements, behind your main defensive cluster rather than at the spawn points. This reserves immediate burst damage to catch any leaking runners before they exit.

Shattering the Frozen Ice Queen Easter Egg

Into the Mountains includes a hidden Easter egg on the northern cliff face:

1. Locate the frozen female figure encased in glacial ice near the upper northern edge of the map.
2. Click or tap repeatedly on the ice formation during or between combat waves.
3. Continue interacting until the glacial block completely shatters, which reveals a rattling skeleton in place of the frozen queen.

Interacting with the ice structure does not consume stage resources or interrupt tower targeting.
