Instant Upgrade is an Adept ability unlocked at Level 5. While active, her mana will be automatically feed into upgrading nearby defenses instantly, level-by-level, albeit with modified mana costs. There is no hard limit to the number of defenses the "Upgrade Aura" can level up per ability tick.

In Redux, this ability functions identical to the Upgrade Defense action, apart from upgrading the target defense instantly for a higher mana cost. If this ability is used on an already fully upgraded defense (3-Stars), it still instantly repairs it. However, the base mana cost will always be 1,400 mana.
