  • Buff Improved Rangs now increases Heavy Kylie pierce ― 300 → 350
MOAB Press spam is overperforming with a high 024 preference, so we are moving pierce from the base 004 into a 204 buff to give this choice some more high density round value.
— Update notes
1-0-4
  • Nerf Heavy Kylie: Pierce reduced ― 350 → 300
1-0-5
  • Buff Heavy Kylie: Pierce increased ― 350 → 400 (undocumented)
  • Buff Now has "Switch Hands" targeting option by default
To reduce some top crosspath dominance, have middle path stay the true speed crosspath and also provide a small buff to the base Boomerang, Glaive’s attack speed bonus has been moved down into the base Boomerang Tower.
— Update notes
  • Buff Attack cooldown reduced ― 1.42s → 1.2s (attack speed increased by 18.33%)
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $10 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
The MOAB Press top crosspath is the ‘better’ crosspath for most cases due to having more than double the pierce as well as a stronger knockback amount on a tower that most effectively uses high pierce, as this is one of the better support towers in the game we are reducing that superior crosspath without nerfing the lesser one to even this more.
— Update notes
1-0-4, 1-0-5
  • Nerf Special Kylie: pierce reduced by 40
We were unhappy with the recent MOAB Press nerf, so this is being undone for further review.

1-0-4, 1-0-5
  • Buff Special Kylie: pierce increased by 40
Faster Rangs has had some inconsistency resolved for an overall crosspathing improvement
