Cactus

The Cactus is a playable plant character in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and acts as the sniper class for the plant team. She has 125 health. Her long range attacks make her a very good sniper for the plants from a long distance. She is pretty much useless at short range combat because her scope is too big to battle up close. She can place Potato Mines which deal 175 damage to zombies, so she is useful for defending an area, along with her Tallnut Battlements to act as shields. She can also use these abilities to make safe areas for plants to regroup, heal and shoot from, without worrying about the zombies getting in. She can also deploy her Garlic Drone and take to the skies, shooting zombies from above and dropping deadly Corn Strikes on unsuspecting zombies.

D​escription
