As our newest tower to be added to BTD6, we went over feedback for every path and made a large number of adjustments addressing a variety of points.

Gyrfalcon path deals +1 damage to Regrows - Note: This was added to limit accidental infinite regrow farms

Beast Handler’s general repositioning feels far too free right now, the reposition cooldown is being increased to a more reasonably noticeable number so this feels like a meaningful cost. [...] Horned Owl’s pierce is too high in the base upgrade with very low value from merging, so more of this is shifting into the merge benefit.

Beast: Reposition cooldown increased ― 0.5s → 5s- Horned Owl: pierce reduced ― 8 → 6

Bottom path birds up to T3 are also just a little too good for the cost and are all going up about 5% with Condor’s price being reduced to compensate.

When first creating Beast Handler we balanced the T1-3 upgrade costs with a goal of creating a decision point between spending free playable space to save on cash or spending more cash to save on playable space. However in practice though some people have come on board with spending their playable space as a resource for more power; actual interest is much more divided between maximizing cost efficiency of these merges or simply using different towers. Given that spam of lower tier handlers already comes with the advantage of allowing them to be repositioned over a larger area, we’re changing our approach with a full cost rebalance across most T1-3 upgrades for exactly equal cost per point of merged beast power, instead leaving the nuance around understanding higher value merges & footprint advantage to depend more on discounts.

In going over our large list of price changes for Beast Handler’s lower tiers in 42 this change was received very positively, however we did not realize that in making this change we killed off all chance of dual-beast handlers being used as a round 1 starting option for under $650 in hard modes – So we gotta do that math all over again and convert it for difficulty, painful 😀 All T1 beast prices changed to allow 110 & 101 beast handler combos to be placed for under $650 in hard mode, all T2 & T3 prices shifted around to keep these same cost ratios.

- Upgrade cost reduced ― $940 → $860

- Attack cooldown reduction from Beast Power reduced ― 0.28679625s → 0.28s (undocumented)

Base handler's beast range felt too high starting off when considering the tower is built around sharing range between multiple Handlers so this range is being reduced.
Bottoms will now move slower but speed up as more beasts are merged into them, likewise they will attack slower at first but faster through their merges. This should add more merge value to lower tier birds while overall nerfing to the base level for currently overpowered higher tiers.
