Striker Jones

“

Striker Jones’ main purpose is to provide buffs to Bombs and Mortars, however he very often isn’t the preferred hero for Bomb/Mortar strategies and so he rarely gets used. We have augmented the buffs that he provides to Bombs and Mortars to help address this. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
7+	Mortar Monkey blast radius buff increased ― +15% → +25%
8+	Bomb Shooter range buff increased ― +5% → +15%  Bomb Shooter pierce buff increased ― +35% → +40%

Biker Bones

“

Biker Bones’ new more general level 8 buff is an interesting one that we’re pleased to see has been effectively used with towers such as Spike Factory. We’re slightly increasing the buff to hopefully see more of this, as well as making the same changes to the Mortar buff which Striker Jones received. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
7+	Mortar Monkey blast radius buff increased ― +15% → +25%
8+	Range buff increased ― +25% → +30%

Benjamin

“

By the time you get to the later levels, the cash amounts that players typically have mean that any cash gained from Benjamin is negligible. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
15-16	Cash per round increased ― $1,400 → $2,000
17+	Cash per round increased ― $2,500 → $4,000

DJ Benjammin'

“

Same changes and reasoning as Benjamin. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
15-16	Cash per round increased ― $1,050 → $1,500
17+	Cash per round increased ― $1,875 → $3,000

Pat Fusty

“

As Pat isn’t getting much attention recently, we’ve increased his damage and attack speed on his later levels, which also results in him being more effective at stalling MOAB class bloons. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
11-18	Slam base damage increased ― 5 → 6
16+	Now increases damage to MOAB-Class Bloons by 5
17+	Cooldown reduced ― 0.55s → 0.4s
19+	Slam base damage increased ― 15 → 16

Fusty the Snowman

“

Same changes as Pat Fusty, plus a minor tweak to the level 8 Ice Monkey buff to increase its effectiveness. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
8+
11-18	Slam base damage increased ― 5 → 6
16+	Now increases damage to MOAB-Class Bloons by 5
17+	Cooldown reduced ― 0.55s → 0.4s
19+	Slam base damage increased ― 15 → 16

Fateweaver Adora

“

With Fateweaver still remaining a dominant hero particularly in the early/mid game, it leaves little room for other heroes like Quincy, as early game is meant to be his specialty. We’ve slightly upped Fateweaver’s base cost so that she’s not quite so efficient early on. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes

Etienne

“

We love the impact that Etienne has had on the game - it’s been great to see all the new strategies that he has made possible. With that being said, we would like to make one very small adjustment to his ability, which we don’t expect will have much of an impact on his viability. Etienne provides so much utility that he doesn’t need to have strong DPS, and it does feel like his level 3 ability stretches on for longer than necessary. — Update notes
