Paragons
| “ | For this update we’ve given Paragons their own section due to the large number of changes to this system. Also note, while we have provided the numerical changes do not take any of the raw damage numbers at face value - they will not be entirely equivalent to actual performance changes in gameplay | ” |
For more details on the Paragon Rework please check out this Reddit post by Ninja Kiwi as it explains most of the changes.
Fixes and changes
- Resolved a bug that was benefitting different paragons boss damage by differing amounts
- Note: Net nerf for most paragons
- Resolved an issue preventing other Paragon damage bonuses (like Ceramic/Camo) from scaling well with degrees
- Building any Paragon in a real game now will now unlock that Paragon’s upgrade for use in sandbox
Paragon Cash Slider
- Upon purchasing any Paragon upgrade, the confirmation prompt now includes an option to inject extra cash into the transformation.
- This scales from $0 up to the max amount of cash that could be spent to max cash contribution, and also displays a combined cost of this plus the base upgrade cost
- This contributes to the paragon cash contributed by absorbed towers scaling value at 5% reduced efficiency
Boss Bonus Damage
| “ | As most paragons were positively benefiting in terms of boss damage, we want to increase the intended Boss Damage multiplier a little more. — Update notes |
” |
- Paragon Boss damage multiplier each 20 degrees increased ― 20% → 25%
