Heroes

Benjamin

“

May as well be a general camo for Ben level given that Trojan gives camo at 18 too — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
18+	Level 18 Syphon Funding affects DDTs

Pat Fusty

Levels	Changes
3+	Placing towers in Pat’s radius will now show a grayed out Rallying Roar buff icon (bug fix)

Adora

“

Adora is a unique hero in how she has a great deal more value in spending cash to level her up faster, however she outperforms other heroes by too much regardless of this added cost. As her ability uptime is so incredibly good to the point of being completely spammable we’re increasing that cooldown slightly and reducing her base pierce in the higher levels so more thought must be required to utilize the large pierce increase she gains from usage of that ability. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
3+	Long Arm of Light cooldown increased ― 35s → 40s
11+	Main attack pierce reduced ― 13 → 11 Note: Applies to higher levels  Ball of light pierce reduced ― 13 → 11 (undocumented) Note: Applies to higher levels

Etienne

“

Because it didn’t really matter before, but guess it kinda does now. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
10+	UCAV ability can now naturally see Camo Bloons

Geraldo

Levels	Changes
1+	Geraldo’s restock rates are no longer 1 round longer if used from full stock (bug fix)
2+	Geraldo’s action figure should no longer inherit the wrong sell value when reassigned in co op (bug fix)
10+	Geraldo Rabbits placed on ice platforms no longer prevent them from merging (bug fix)  Geraldo’s Rabbits should no longer despawn when attacking in vicinity of an ice platform (bug fix)  Geraldo’s Rabbits should no longer become extinct due to climate change on Erosion (bug fix)

Bosses

Vortex

“

As knowledge, power & variety of Paragons has developed they have turned out to be extremely powerful against vortex and we have reached a point with enough good paragon diversity we no longer feel like they need to resist Vortex’s stun for such a large advantage over other towers, instead of this we feel Vortex’s stun is just too long in general so is being reworked to an overall lower amount across the tiers without any paragon immunity. — Update notes

”

•  Paragons no longer have 50% reduced stun duration
• Stun duration reworked at all tiers for generally reduced durations
•  T2 ― 16s → 19s
•  T3 ― 20s → 21s
•  T4 ― 25s → 24s
•  T5 ― 30s → 27s
•  ET1 ― 20s → 18s
•  ET2 ― 25s → 21s
•  ET3 ― 30s → 24s
•  ET4 ― 36s → 27s
•  ET5 ― 40s → 30s

Lych

“

Lych has some cheese strategy in pre-buffing before spawn to get around the draining mechanics, but boss functionality now makes it easy for us to try out a quick change to counteract some of this. — Update notes

”

•  Lych now triggers the 'buff drain' attack immediately on spawn
