Ballista Towers: Will they make a comeback?

The Ballista Tower needs no introduction. Many Dragon Lords see it as an underpowered choice. However, a recent update (version 2.80) to it may just have you rethinking it as a viable option for your base!

BALLISTA TOWER CHANGES

  • Poison damage was being limited over time
    • This limit is now removed and the damage has been readjusted accordingly
  • The damage per second has been increased by 200% compared to prior damage values
    • See included table for reference
  • Length of time for total damage to be dealt has been drastically reduced
    •     Currently 3 seconds, down from 12 seconds
  • Damage previously scaled incorrectly after level 35 and has been fixed
  • Poison damage stacks: if multiple ballista towers attack, multiple DoT effects will tick on a dragon
