Corvus (BTD6): Difference between revisions

Corvus has 800 max Mana. Primarily, he gains Mana from popping Bloons that were affected by his Haunted effect. Additionally, he can passively generate 1 Mana every second, provided Bloons still spawn during the round. He can generate more mana via his Soul Harvest and Dark Ritual abilities.  

*When it and all of its children are popped, it generates an explosion that damages other Bloons nearby. It has a [[projectile size|blast radius]] of 24 [[distance unit]]s and deals 2 [[damage type|energy-type]] [[damage]] to up to 4 Bloons, increasing to 4 damage to up to 8 Bloons at level 6, 10 damage to up to 16 Bloons at level 12, and 30 damage to up to 16 Bloons at level 17. The explosion benefits from {{BTD6 mk|More 'Splody}}. Corvus restores 3 Mana per layer the Haunted Bloon had when it was first afflicted (affected by Spiritual Balance).

The '''Spellbook''' is an interface that allows the player to store Corvus's Mana and spend it to cast spells. It starts with the Spear, Repel, and Nourishment spells by default and can store up to 800 Mana. Corvus gains more spells as he levels up, having access to 16 spells in total starting at level 13. There are two types of spells:

*Other spells do not drain Mana over time, but have a limited duration and a cooldown period. Unlike [[Activated Ability|Activated Abilities]], the cooldown does not start until the duration ends. They are not affected by ability cooldown modifiers like [[Energizer (BTD6)|Energizer]].

On desktop, the Spellbook can be toggled with the Monkey Special [[hotkey]] ({{key|PageDown}} by default) and each spell slot can be assigned to a custom hotkey under Advanced Hotkeys.  

'''Spiritual Balance''' is unlocked at level 8. It multiplies the amount of Mana Corvus generates from all sources depending on how much Mana he currently has. At 200 Mana or lower, he generates twice as much Mana, and at 520 Mana or more, he does not generate extra Mana. The modifier scales linearly with how much Mana he has, so, for example, having 360 Mana means he generates 50% more Mana. This also affects [[#Soul Harvest|Soul Harvest]] and [[#Dark Ritual|Dark Ritual]].

'''Soul Harvest''' is unlocked at level 3. It releases a blast that damages up to 20 [[Bloon]]s within his range and restores 100 Mana plus 1 per point of damage it deals. It deals 20 damage at level 3, increasing to 35 base damage and +45 bonus damage to [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramic Bloon]]s at level 11. It starts with a 40-second cooldown and lowers by 0.5 seconds per level after level 3, to a minimum of 31.5 seconds at level 20. It can only be used up to 8 times per round and is disabled if the round lasts for more than 3 minutes.

'''Dark Ritual''' is unlocked at level 10. It creates an aura around Corvus that deals 1 [[damage type|plasma-type]] damage to up to 100 Bloons within it every 0.2 seconds for 12 seconds, which is affected by the energy/plasma damage bonuses from Haunt. He restores 1 Mana per point of damage dealt by the aura, except damage dealt to regenerated [[Regrow Bloon (BTD6)|Regrow Bloon]] layers. Dark Ritual cannot target Purple Bloons unless he is able to damage them. It has a 90-second cooldown. Can be affected by external buffs, such as [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]].
