Strategy

Long Range Tacks serves little purpose, whether as a standalone upgrade or as a crosspath, due to it not benefitting the attack speed, damage, or pierce of the Tack Shooter, with only a minor range bonus that is not outstanding, and is thus only used as a stepping stone to Super Range Tacks.

  • Buff Now increases tack projectile lifespan (bug fix)
Inferno Ring has felt very outclassed for a long time, and more recently the tack shooter was reworked to give pierce on x2x which made the old 402 pierce crosspath not make as much sense anymore. We wanted to start work on both these issues together by reworking how Ring of Fire and Inferno Ring interact with crosspaths

  • Buff Long Range Tacks now grants +10 pierce to Ring of Fire/Inferno Ring
[...] Ring of Fire also generally has too high a pierce amount for how effective it is at utilizing its full pierce value.

  • Nerf Pierce reduced ― 50 → 30
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $20 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
