Tesla tower rebalance

[Atmarozag]

On a hunch it imagines as something like voltage barrier, that must strike all targets around in the same time, but have low range. E.g. shock tower in "random defence" flash game or tesla tower in "canyon defence" flash game. I think in this game must be same as normal & suggest: 1. shrink tesla tower range to 100 pts - 2. shrink it's damage twice or around it. 3. tesla tower now hits all targets within its range at one time.

Tesla towers are not overpowered. They are outranged by spectres, have the longest build time of any of the free towers, and have the least health of any tower, at high levels.

Compare a level 9 tesla to a level 9 x1

Time taken to build
X1 = A bit under 2 days
Tesla = 4days 3 hours 36 minutes

Health
X1 = 2500
Tesla = 1600

Range
X1 = 220
Tesla = 220

Damage vs 1 target
X1 = 200
Tesla = 330

Damage vs 6 targets
X1 = 1200
Tesla = 1980

Damage vs 10 targets
X1 = 2000
Tesla = 1980

Other
Tesla can target enemies on multiple sides, X1 cannot
Tesla take 10x damage from Terraknors

So against 10 enemy troops, X1 turrets take less than half the time to build, have more health, and do more damage.

Against anywhere from 1-6 troops (good for Tesla), we can determine a number equal to the turret's damage * health / build time (hours). This is a good measure of how good the turret is.
X1 = 10870
Tesla = 5333

Tesla turrets are NOT overpowered.

Edit: About the only reason to upgrade tesla towers over X1s is because upgrading x1s overnight is a waste. I have been upping my turrets recently, doing X1 and gun in the day, then concussion overnight. I only up tesla towers if I'm going to have to sleep, then go out for a day without getting a chance to put in builds.
