what i mean is that there’s no sqrt in your formula in the suggestion. Also, wont something like this just decrease the range of most sentries?

Why can it happen

If something’s range is for example 25 blocks, booster t1-t5 would turn it to 14-24 blocks.

Why? Does it happen with repair or bank
Or
I mean there range of sentry not sentry’s boost

Is the range boost for the Boost Sentry itself or for the sentries within its range? If the latter, then Weird has a point.

I think the main reason for why this isn’t a great idea is that the Sentries meta with whatever it currently has is very fine-tuned and balanced. Adding something like this would maybe not completely unbalance, but would definitely upset the meta and need a ton of changes, since this affects the power of other sentries, which are already carefully balanced.

Why not add for custom lobby it to change and nerf/buff it. We aren’t able to upload ready, most balanced variant. It’s life

Ill just remember that

  • on first tiers snipe sentry much better than nade and minigun;
  • Bank sentry can collect TOO much points (i saw bank with 8m, if you destroy this, you can defend with bank
  • Nade sentry self-destroys

Just few examples

You gave a suggestion to make sentry more op, yet youre giving some examples of sentry being op.

I don’t get the point of this sentry, why not just upgrade the other sentries?

Its same like: Why shaman exist when you can just heal and upgrade hp in solo

Shaman is very different in many ways. For one HP chests have varying prices, they’re controlled by the map creator. It targets one specific field: HP and Healing

Meanwhile this sentry is too versatile. It boosts Interest/Debuff Time/Max HP/Damage even though that’s what upgrading those sentries are for. It also boosts Regen even though that’s what Repair Sentry is for. It just attempts to replace upgrade

I get what you mean with Shaman, but Shaman is far less versatile than Booster Sentry

You can nerf it.

  • No max hp boost
  • When upgrade for example 100k, you will choose minor buff for 6.5 k or upgrade for 100k

Shaman for people, booster for sentry
