Back-up in Arms is a Weekly Event game mode in Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. It is a variant of Turf Takeover where players can only play as the Support classes: Sunflower and Rose on the plants team or Scientist and Engineer on the zombies team.

Mechanics[]

This game mode functions identically to Turf Takeover, except that a limited number of classes are available. You can only play as the Support classes: Sunflower, Rose, Scientist, and Engineer.

Description[]

The plants and zombies send their support classes to face off in a breathtaking battle of the buff-givers!

Weekly challenges[]

We need more gems and sprouts.

Strategies[]

While both sides have characters labeled as Support, the playable characters still pack a punch in terms of damage and defense. Sunflowers, as usual, should be healing teammates and using Sunbeam to take out large groups of Zombies. Rose should use Arcane Enigma to get teammates to the objective quicker, along with assisting the fight with her abilities. Scientists have access to Steam Blaster, meaning that any plant that Scientists with Steam Blaster come across at close range are bound to lose the fight, due to both Sunflower and Rose having low health amounts of 100. Scientists should also be healing their team, as Scientist has great healing abilities. Engineer has many supportive abilities that also work great on offense. Heavy Helper is great at defending the objective - or attacking it.

Trivia[]

  • In the thumbnail for this weekly event, an oddly-placed Heal Flower is seen, no where near where a normal pot would spawn. It also seems to be much smaller than the average Heal Flower.
