[Additional Details Forthcoming]

Morena Baccarin approves of the VanWolf! Would be awesome if that had an 80% NM Buff

About time, 40 seconds to repair a level 1 Fireball tower is absurd, especially since they don't allow you to Overcharge during build phase. Also, lol 5000 mana cost to heal 40k hp.


Mythical Armor sets don't need a 5% further buff, they already have higher base stats, and a far higher upgrade cap than godly's and worse qualities




A much needed change. Beating Nightmare Deeper Well is harder than any of the other campaign maps on Insane, and then it drops you 1-10^ loot. Such crap.

It's a shame they won't let you skip more survival waves at the start, say starting at wave 15 instead of 8. (You can just set linked achievements to require you to start at level 1.)
