Description
[edit]The Damage Buff is a buff that increases a tower's damage, making them stronger. It is displayed on the tower itself with the icon of an arm with muscle.
Mechanics
[edit]Damage Buff range reduction is calculated as:
- Damage × (1 + Damage Buff)
- where Damage Buff is the debuff supplied in decimal form (for example, 10% is 0.1).
- Damage × (1 + Damage Buff)
The damage increased by the Damage Buff will always round down to the nearest integer. For example, a tower that deals 5 damage with a 50% Damage Buff will deal 7 damage, instead of 7.5.
Multiple towers are not fully affected by the buff. A full list of towers affected fully, partially or that are unaffected can be found below.
