Looking for Aquanos nmhc(mm) surv build

[B33b3]

So I've been trying to find a good build for Aquanos surv lately. I used this one, http://ddplanner.com/?l=8482,zachs-nm-hc-mix-aqua-solo-clearable, and solo with mm on I got to about wave 13ish(I also kinda gave up around that time because I got really mad about sharken screwing up my defense). But me and a friend did this without mm and lost at wave 20. So I'm looking for something that could get me to at least wave 25, that build holds really well except for issues with sharken, at least for my stats.
If it helps here are the stats for my builders:
Squire/Apprentice (I alternate equipment):
1380/1473/1429/1293
Huntress:
1029/1373/812/949
Tower Health EV:
2417
Monk:
882/1201/824/975
Summoner:
1128/964/144/889
And I have a barb for dps. I'm mostly looking for just nmhc builds, non mix mode stuff. If anyone knows of any good builds that could work with those kind of stats it'd be a huge help.

I use this build.

Add to it Ogre + Mage on every beam (4 in total) and a bunch of Archers. Correctly placed minions should stop Ogres from hitting your towers (too hard) and completely block DEWs. Getting rid of walls gives you lot of DU for raw DPS.

Th weak spot is unfortunatelly Souther crystal getting hit by Goldfish when I attempt to DPS ogres. Strangely enough, minions tend to ignore them.

I was able to clean it solo NM HC with 1800-2100 stats.

Try Zach's build:

Got me through mix mode yesterday without problems. Just add minions on all the buffbeams.

heh, Zach's build is actually the one I started with, but had a bunch of issues with Sharken. I guess I'll work with it a bit more and see if I can get through it. I guess if someone has any suggestions on stopping sharken, that might solve all my problems.

My guess is that your stats are a bit low for mixed mode. Here is another build that ain't for mix mode.

Guess you have to work your way up the waves and hope for some upgrades so that you can get further. I wouldn't expect to hit 30 with those stats. Another note, I would move the dps gear from your barbarian to a monk. Monks are extremely good to burn down ogres by alternating tower and hero boost.

Good luck.

The Monk Auras are pretty important in mine. If you try mine again, I would switch your Squire or App gear to your monk. Make sure to put points in aura range too. I would say in order of importance: Monk, Summoner, EV, App, Traps. Traps just want a good radius mostly.

You could tweak the build a bit, you could try to fit in double gas traps, that would make it so that your weaker auras can kill the mobs at leisure. I would maybe lose some fireballs to do that, add Magic missiles back with the DU you have left.

Thanks for the tips guys! I'll try each of these builds, and I'll mess around with your build Zach and see what I can do with it. My buddy I play with is actually working on a dps monk build, we might be farming nosferatu today actually.
