Presents are defenses utilized by the Jester. They come in three sizes:

Small Present Small (2 DU and 40 mana)
Deluxe Present Deluxe (3 DU and 80 mana)
Extravagant Present Extravagant (4 DU and 120 mana)

Presents open at the start of the next Combat Phase or when destroyed during combat. They have a chance of containing any of the following:

  • A random tower. The orientation of the present determines that of the defense created.
  • Mana (either on the map or added to the player's bank).
  • Equipment
  • An Ogre

Potential Towers[]

When a Present spawns a tower, the amount of Defense Units used on the map does not change. This means that any tower spawned by a Small Present effectively costs 2 DU, 3 DU from a Deluxe Present and 4 DU from an Extravagant Present. Presents will never contain a minion, beam defense.

The tables below list the net gain or loss of DU compared to summoning the tower by normal means. The Magic Blockade is only possible defense that occupies more DU than normal when summoned by a present.

Notes[]

  • The base casting time to summon a present of any size is 10 seconds.
  • The Jester's defense stats determine the stats of towers summoned by her presents. These defenses gain an additional +40% attack/effect rate.
  • Presents may only spawn traps and auras that do not interfere with a nearby duplicate. A Strength Drain Aura cannot spawn if its range were to overlap with another Strength Drain.
  • Traps and Auras from presents will always spawn at 100% scale.
  • Sharken cannot push presents.
