Adora (BTD6): Difference between revisions
Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) →Strategy: the last empty BTD6 Hero strategy article, I don't see much Adora use these days ever since her massive nerfs. I did see a lot of 2MPC Adora in the past, but that's long gone and I basically never see it again. CHIMPS? Maybe, but since nerfing abilities and general stat bonuses, she's iffy in CHIMPS. Deep freeplay? Ezili beats that. CT? Subpar but not terrible. Boss when no income makers? She's okay I guess? |

It destroys the selected [[tower]] and provides a buff that increases range and [[attack speed]] based on the total amount of [[cash]] spent on the sacrificed tower, as well as granting Adora XP equal to four times the cash amount (affected by [[Energizer (BTD6)|Energizer]], {{BTD6 mk|Scholarships}}, and {{BTD6 mk|Monkeys Together Strong}}). It cannot target [[sub-tower]]s. It has a 30-second cooldown. | ||
The buff applies to Adora and all [[Sun Avatar (BTD6)|Sun Avatar]]s, [[Sun Temple (BTD6)|Sun Temple]]s, and [[True Sun God (BTD6)|True Sun God]]s within her range for 10 seconds. It increases range by 10% and reduces [[attack cooldown]] by 10%, plus 1% per $100 spent on the sacrificed tower, capping at +25% range and -25% cooldown (+33% attack speed) at $1,500 spent.

It increases range by 10% and reduces [[attack cooldown]] by 10%, plus 1% per $100 spent on the sacrificed tower, capping at +25% range and -25% cooldown (effectively +33.3% attack speed) at $1,500 spent. At level 20, the duration increases to 60 seconds and the cap increases to +50% range and -50% cooldown (double attack speed) at $4,000 spent. Granting the buff to towers that already have it does not stack the effects, but stronger versions of the buff will override weaker ones, and activating a weaker version while a stronger version is active will cause the weaker version to take over once the stronger version ends. | ||

It spawns a temporary sub-tower that orbits Adora in a small anti-clockwise circle for 12 seconds. The ball fires lasers at Bloons with infinite [[range]] and matches Adora's current [[targeting]] option. It deals 3 {{BTD6 dt|72}} damage every 0.05 seconds to up to 8 Bloons at a time and deals +3 damage to [[Fortified Bloon (BTD6)|Fortified Bloon]]s. [[Overclock (BTD6)|Overclock]] does not affect it, but [[Acidic Mixture Dip (BTD6)|Acidic Mixture Dip]] and [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]] does. It has a 60-second cooldown. | ||

Adora is | Adora is often outclassed as a Hero, having a below average DPS and support. Her main use is Blood Sacrifice to provide a significant DPS boost to [[Sun Temple (BTD6)|Sun Temple]]s and [[True Sun God (BTD6)|True Sun God]] for late-game settings, especially [[Boss Bloon Event (BTD6)|Boss Bloon Event]]s in the lack of cash generating heroes. In deep Freeplay however, she is outclassed by [[Ezili (BTD6)|Ezili]]'s MOAB Hex scaling based on BAD health. Outside of this, a lot of investment and buffs are required to give her high enough DPS over other Heroes, and she struggles after round 50 until she reaches level 20. | ||
In CHIMPS mode, she has an incredibly strong early game as her bolts are accurate and very receptive to buffs. Before round 50, she is a great candidate for [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]], and in the later rounds once she is level 20, an [[Overclock (BTD6)|Overclock]] provides an immense power boost. She needs a mid-game carry tower like [[Bloon Area Denial System (BTD6)|Bloon Area Denial System]] to deal with early [[MOAB-Class Bloon]]s until she can level up to the max level and deal acceptable damage to them, but players can often sacrifice the carry tower to gain enough XP to reach level 20 before important rounds like 98. Timing her abilities are crucial to beating these rounds once she reaches max level. | |||
For Boss Bloon Events that have limited Paragons available, she can often be the choice over cash generating heroes to boost a [[Vengeful True Sun God]] and many [[Sun Avatar (BTD6)|Sun Avatar]]s to damage Bosses faster. Players do not need to level her until they get those towers, and she can help defend the early game well in order to be greedy with farming. | |||
