The Tack Shooter’s second upgrade path is rarely seen in arenas, especially in Ceramic Crucible and above. We’ve reduced the prices of the first three upgrades on that side to help make the tower more worthy of that valuable space in your loadout.
— Update notes
  • Nerf Upgrade cost increased ― $2,700 → $2,800
    • Buff Overall cost reduced by $55 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
Other than to use the Blade Maelstrom ability, the Tack Shooter's second upgrade epath is rarely wandered down by Battles players. The feeling here is that the Tack Sprayer is, currently, more reliable than its opposite number, so we hope this increase in pierce will correct that and give players more of a choice when it comes to picking which path to take.
— Update notes
  • Buff Pierce increased ― 2 → 3
