Battles 2 Update 4.12 Out Now - New Map & Balance Changes!

Bloons TD Battles 2 · published 6 months ago

All eventsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

New Features

  • New Map: Park

    • 🌳 Jump into an epic showdown on this iconic Battles 1 map!

    • 🏆 Park will appear in all arenas

Balance Changes

  • Bloon Sends

    • 🙈 Camo Multiplier: 2x → 1.75x

    • 💭 Camo bloons are feeling a bit under utilised. This price buff should hopefully make camo rush a bit more dangerous

    • 🎈 Tight Ceramics: ceramic count 40 -> 30

    • 🎈 All spaced and grouped ZOMGs are $500 cheaper

    • 💭 Even with tight ceramics, recent nerfs are still a bit too strong. Lowering the amount sent should allow them to still be dangerous but not over powered. We are also making ZOMGs cheaper to give an alternative rush to tight ceramics

  • Bomb Shooter

    • 💣 x4x MOAB Assassin: 30 -> 40 moab damage

    • 💭 This buff should help the Bomb Shooter have better late game damage

  • Tack Shooter

    • 💰 x3x Blade Shooter: $750 -> $600

    • 💭 Blade Shooter was getting over shadowed early game this should bring it back in line 

  • Sniper Monkey

    • 🥽 x1x Night Vision Goggles: extra camo damage 2 -> 1

    • 💭 This nerf will help make camo bloons more dangerous 

  • Monkey Sub

    • 💥 x5x Pre-emptive Strike: activated ability 7000d -> 11000d

    • 💥 x5x Pre-emptive Strike: passive ability 800d -> 1000d

    • 💭 Pre-emptive strike will be able to perform better against DDTs with this buff, as it was lacking in that area

  • Monkey Buccaneer

    • 🐦‍⬛ xx2 Crow’s Nest: extra camo damage 2 -> 1

    • 💭 This nerf will help make camo bloons more dangerous 

  • Monkey Ace

    • 🛩️ x2x Spy Plane: extra camo damage 1 -> 0

    • 💭 This nerf will help make camo bloons more dangerous 

    • 🎯 xx3 Neva-Miss Targeting: pierce increase +4 -> +2

    • 💭 Neva-Miss Targeting was overperforming for its price, so we are toning it down a bit

  • Mortar Monkey

    • 💰 3xx Shell Shock: $1300 -> $1100

    • 💰 x1x Faster Reload: $400 -> $350

    • 💰 x2x Rapid Reload: $550 -> $400

    • 💭 Mortar has been a go-to de-camo option but it was not getting used for much else. This should hopeful make its other paths keep up

  • Wizard Monkey

    • ✨ xx1 Intense Magic: pierce increase +5 -> +3

    • ✨ xx1 Intense Magic: Fireball pierce increase +7 -> +5

    • 💰 x1x Fireball: Cost $300 -> $350

    • 💰 Base wizard monkey $250 -> $300

    • 💭 The wizard monkey has been at the front of the pickrates for a while, we are toning back its pierce to make it a bit less reliable early game to combat this

  • Super Monkey

    • ☀️ 3xx Sun Avatar: pierce increase +5 -> +3

    • 💰 xx4 Dark Champion: $27000 -> $32000

    • 🥷 xx4 Dark Champion: MOAB damage bonus +2 -> +3

    • 🥷 xx4 Dark Champion: pierce increase +2 -> +3

    • 💰 xx5 Legend of the Night: $100000 -> $140000

    • 🥷 xx5 Legend of the Night: damage bonus +4 -> +7

    • 🥷 xx5 Legend of the Night: MOAB damage bonus +4 -> +7

    • 🥷 xx5 Legend of the Night: pierce increase +8 -> +12

    • 💭 The bottom path Super Monkey was getting overshadowed by the top path, so we’re giving it a more distinct role by making it more expensive but also more powerful

  • Ninja Monkey

    • 💣 xx5 Master Bomber: shuriken/flashbomb attack 0.55 -> 0.4

    • 💭 This change is to combat the recent nerf to x3x shinobi. That change made the Master Bomber unreliable as a stall option

  • Druid

    • 💰 4xx Ball Lightning: $4000 -> $4700

    • 💰 xx3 Druid of Wrath: $750 -> $650

    • 😡 xx5 Avatar of Wrath: max damage buff 30 -> 26

    • 💭 We are buffing the early game of Druid as it was underperforming. We are also nerfing Ball Lightning, as a recent bug fix gave it a buff making it overall a bit too strong. The Avatar of Wrath was overperforming slightly as well.

  • Banana Farm

    • 💰 Base price $1000 -> $900

    • 💭 This early game buff will allow for more aggressive and faster paced strategies

  • Cyber Quincy

    • 💥 Level 3: Cyber Shot bonus pierce 15 -> 10

    • 💥 Level 10: Cyber Storm damage 30 -> 20

    • 💭 Cyber Quincy is still performing too well after his recent nerfs. This should keep him strong but not dominant 

  • Obyn

    • 🌲 Level 1: spirit attack pierce 4 -> 5

    • 🌲 Level 4: Nature’s Ward totem slows 25% -> 35%

    • 🌲 Level 8: Nature’s Ward totem slows 35% -> 50%

    • 🌲 Level 10: Wall of Trees pierce 2000 -> 3000

    • 🌲 Level 10: Wall of Trees 2x -> 1.5x cash per RBE

    • 🌲 Level 18: Nature’s clarity - +10% attack speed to all druids in range

    • 🌲 Level 10: Wall of Trees pierce 7500-> 8500

    • 💭 Obyn has been overshadowed in favor of other heroes, even when using Druid

  • Ocean Obyn

    • ⛵ All magic tower buffs also able to be used by water towers, including Ice monkey 

    • ⛵ Level 5: Gains Ocean’s Wrath buff: 5% attack speed to all water towers in range

    • 🐙 Level 10: Unleash the Kraken’s pierce 1200 -> 2500

    • 🐙 Level 10: Unleash the Kraken’s gains 2x -> 1x cash per RBE

    • ⛵ Level 12: Crystal Clarity buff 5% attack speed -> 10% attack speed

    • ⛵ Level 18: Crystal Clarity buff 10% attack speed -> 20% attack speed (renamed to Perfect Clarity) 

    • 💭 This should allow Ocean Obyn to give all water strategies a good synergy which they did not really have before, while retaining his current synergies

  • Star Captain Jericho

    • 💰 Level 8: Money Trap steals 1.3x as much with BFBs, 2x as much with ZOMGs/DDTs, 3x as much with BADs

    • 💰 Level 11: Money Trap MOAB steals $1300 -> $1100

    • 💰 Level 14: Money Trap MOAB steals $3000 -> $2200

    • 💭 These changes should allow Star Captain to grow stronger as the game goes on, making him much more of a threat

Bug Fixes

  • 💻 Benjamin Level 19 Biohack duration had been incorrectly set to 9 seconds. We have changed it to 18 seconds as intended.
