The tower defense game Legion TD 2 has received a relatively minor update recently, with some much-needed buffs to certain Mercenaries to make them more viable.
Mercenary Buffs
For those who are new to Legion TD 2, Mercenaries are additional units that players can hire to attack the opposing team. That said, Patch v11.01.2 brought some buffs to give some Mercenaries a bit more oomph.
Imps are mercenaries that deal magic damage. They are supposed to weaken enemy tank units, but they seemed a bit weaker than what the company had intended. To address this, Imps got a minor increase in attack speed from 1.03 to 1.06 attacks per second.
Brutes are mercenaries typically called upon whenever players need additional units to stop the first several waves. They are already proficient in keeping enemies at bay; they just need a minor health increase to make them even better. Thankfully, that is what AutoAttack Games did in Patch v11.01.2. Brutes are now sturdier with their HP increased from 800 to 840.
How about the Mimic? The Mimic is a relatively strong mercenary in Legion TD 2. However, when compared to its late-game counterparts, there is some room for improvement. Fortunately, that is what happened in the game's most recent update as the Mimic enjoys a slight bump to its attack speed and HP.
