Tactical Walkthrough
--------------------
1. First group of plants:
– Walk directly into the center
– Drop Boom Box → Snow Globe → Pepper Spray
– First corner cleared.
2. Second group:
– Avoid floor explosions (bombs) as you rotate.
– Once Boom Box is ready, center yourself again and use it for max hits.
– Use Technotist to bounce attacks between targets for added DPS.
3. Third group:
– Drop Boom Box again in the center.
– Use Snow Globe on the plant nearest to the next group, so you can walk over and carry damage into the final set.
– This maximizes Globe uptime across two waves.
4. Final group of plants:
– Spam all gadgets off cooldown.
– Finish with Technotist autos and movement dodging the AoE on the ground.
