This Hero FINALLY Got A Rework! (Bloons TD 6) 

y e s

I still use him for the global range and such. You don't have to micro him constantly for him to be helpful

I tried him only three times since he was out I hope he’s better

@3days_left yeah, that's fair. Personally, though, I would just use Psy if I want full-map range. Camo and lead without microing spells, a stun, good late game

I always use corvus,hes that broken

Honestly, the main thing they should do with him firstly before reworking, is make the book a square page that you can put wherever you want on the screen (like an app window), and maybe resize too. That way you could use spells whenever you want without the annoyance of having to click on the hero every time while covering half screen. And also you would be able to place the spellbook window wherever it's the least obtrusive.

I said this like a year ago in a comment.. why can't they just have a ui overlay that stays up all the time for these kind of heroes (corvus and geraldo). The main reason I hate using micro towers/heroes is due to this extremely bad way its currently implemented. The pain of clicking the hero, then click their spellbook, and then get half of the screen blocked is amazing for me that ninjakiwi haven't done any improvements to.

@@DMalek yeah. At least with Geraldo, he is a bit more "passive" (since most of the things you buy last long), so I can see it not being as much of a problem with him, but Corvus is way more active. They should really add that sort of box, because no rework is going to fix that issue.

Hey, maybe you don't know this, but you can solve that problem with a trick. If you click on a monkey on the right side of the map, the upgrades will show up on the left and vise-versa. But if you click on a monkey on the right and THEN click on another tower (Corvus for example) the upgrade menu will not change positions (Just need Corvus to not be to far left or right because then you can't click him).

they gotta make the background transparent or have a slider for the transparency of it its honestly kind of shocking they havent done that yet. idk if youve ever played mobile but its like 100x worse than pc lmao

That's how I feel about him. You can do truly ridiculous things with him, but it's just not worth the effort.

I main Corvus but I am not neurotic about maximizing every amount of value out of him. I do use spells lots but I have no expectation of perfection and it's quite fun

naah what are u doing here we need pvz content

@@xaaft Can a person not have hobbies outside the content they make

Oh, its the cool guy with even cooler opinions

You do realize you can use Corvus without soloing the game with him, right?

Might as well use another hero in that case. Also I'm pretty sure he can't even do that anymore

@@tpfoxCastrobut to use him how he’s intended to be used that’s what u have to do. If u don’t do that why use Corvus? Jus use psi

@@sunbleachedangel The commenter is talking about Corvus before the change. But yeah, if you don't like Corvus' gameplay just use another hero, don't ruin the only high skill cap hero made for micro lovers just because casuals want another "sit and relax" one.

@@tpfoxCastro To your first comment, I'm talking about superplay, which I and the entirety of index do for fun in this game. Corvus is meant to appeal to players such as index, but remains fairly unsuccessful in doing as such. To your second comment - false, I'm talking about the current update. The rework did precisely fuck all to fix the issue, and instead made it even worse by making it 2 buttons to press on loop instead of 3. I love micro in this game, but even half the top index players aren't exactly willing to mindlessly press just 2 buttons on loop for the first 90% of the game. Corvus's main issue has nothing to do with "high skill requirement" or "heavy micro", as every high skill player enjoys both. Rather, the existence of nourishment means that any actual cool and clever use of corvus is just ignored because you're trying to do a hard index challenge. Corvus's skill min isn't that high, and his skill cap is actually lower than a lot of other heroes. I want a higher skill cap, not a lower one. Corvus should not be as easy to solve as nim.

i was like AYOOOO?

I was looking for this comment LOL

sounds like ISAB has a traditional wife who's often in the kitchen. -Don't mind her age-

Everything comes to sauda

Nah I'm thinking Churchill probably

Quincy fs fs

@@Daylon_Ti bet isab comes to sauda too

​@@Daylon_Tto or in ?

It's apparently been about 5. I refuse to believe it's been that long, but it's apparently true 😭

6*

Feels like a month

​@@Yung_YacobOGthat is true, i saw a 1tc of him when he first came out, and it feels like it was a month or two ago and it was over 5

I wouldnt really call this a "rework". These are minor changes. He still works exactly the same

But that's the whole point. Casuals players already have all heroes for them, let micro lovers have ONE! Like, not every hero has to be nor should be just place it and do nothing. A hero that requires constant attention like Corvus is nice and we shouldn't steal his uniqueness by making it simpler to use.

@@tpfoxCastro yeah! i’m not saying he should be changed, i’m just elaborating/restating more specifically why he’s so unpopular

@@MeboDotExe also, the reason he is so much more unpopular in a game like this is because tower defense games lend themselves to high strategy low micromanagement as the towers do most of the actual gameplay. Goes against many of the reasons people pick up BTD six in the first place

​@@tpfoxCastro I don't know why you talk like we want him to me removed. The guy was just explaning why he is so unpopular. And common, micro management in a Tower Defense game will always be unpopular. Also Psy is better, there i said it

honestly yeah the spell micro isn't really the issue, it is the nourish micro

what would they even replace nourishment with though? maybe a spawnable turret spirit?

@@unfunnyguy1530 I don’t think they need to replace anything TBH just remove it and fix leveling curve.

@@unfunnyguy1530A weaker overclock?

Just make it autocast on a toggle??

Yeah, God forbid it means the thing you need to train instead of something that can be gotten from RU-vid videos.

You can drag spells anywhere on the playing field to quick cast

​@@OVERCLOCKexe yeah, and the real rework we need for Corvus is double tap/click to cast and dismiss spells

You can use hotkeys

@@RohanSAMobile players:

That is just not true though, spear, storm, echo and aggression are the only abilities that directly improve his damage, malice and big hands have a tradeoff for their damage, while both overload and trample are burst damage that temporarily removes the spirit (Trample does basically nothing after the spirit charges past the bloons you want to pop until it gets to the entrance)

It's situational tho. Fire is better against slower targets, dividing is supposed to be comboed with the other spells. Rage is very cheap and doesn't do much alone, but better than nothing, good when mixed with other spells. Storm is supposed to be used against moabs thanks to their high hit-box. Spear is a "get ou of jail free card", should only use it when you are in danger because if you use it while you are not you're not going to have it for when you need it, better on large groups of Bloons. Big hands depend on Corvus' range and it mainly used on BADs, and Fortified MOABs and DDTs (regular DDTs too). Explosion is just Majin Vegeta, if it didn't kill the whole map, that's an oopsie.

​@@10503.Also, all of those have different porpuses. Aggression is the cheapest, echo is really good on comboing with other spells, doubling the value of almost all of them, spear is bad single target and storm and fire is better against moabs(larger hit-box and slower speed)

And so, one of the Monkey City’s greatest warriors has vanished in a blinding flash of ethereal energy, having made the ultimate sacrifice for the sake of the grouped BFBs. His name was Corvus, the proud Spirit Walker.

@@brawlstar1748 ''If the moabs were grouped together, I might have a little trouble.'' ''But would you lose?'' ''Nah, I'd win.''

I feel like geraldo just does what corvus does but better

Like in terms of micro

Wya? Here in Brazil is just one hour later

@@lele-9063 Florida

What. But, the more Bloons, the easier it is to get mana. I didn't even know you can have such low amount of mana in the high rounds. What are you doing?

Nah they fumbled on Corvass

You act like they completely changed him

@@sirbar715 because yes. We cant use the combo of nourish and repel now.

yeah cuz technically, at the end of the day, it's still a mobile game at it's core, aka time consuming passive activity that needs not much attention.

​@@OctavianAftonBloons on PC >>>>>>>>>>

Yeah, like. There are SO many sit and relax heroes, they don't need more! Let there be ONE extremely active skilled hero for once!

@@tpfoxCastro I mean true! I'm not against them making a micro heavy hero or tower either, I just think it shouldn't be a "trend" of them continuing to make even more of them as that would really overestimate the size of the "try hard" player community compared to casuals.

same, like I play the game I dont watch the game. But he got so many nerf I dont really like using it now. The hand is so weak now... same for the explosion..

yeah honestly I feel like they ruin the hero. Corvus is my favorite hero but the change made me stop using him

Yeah but how quick, real easy to get mama

he did use psi in a video pretty recently

@PartOfTheGame Thank you man. Your comment motivated me to play with Gwen, Psi, Striker, Chirchhill, Obyn and I had a lot of fun. That was nice

I usually just get sabo. Any slowdown massive helps withs ddts. Cause the reason why ddts are hard is cause they are spaced out and apache only hits one. Slow effects make them clumb up and apache shreds

Hotkey settings have additional hotkeys which you can bind as of 42.0. Included in these hotkeys are Gerry/corvus item/spell hotkeys.

But, that's the whole point. It's a risk reward situation, without the risk who cares about the reward? Like, if I can ALWAYS just retry last round, why would I use Sauda when I have infinite tries with Corvus. No one would ever use Corvus on easy or Medium mode, that's idiotic and if you are using him on hard mode, you HAVE to be and probably are good wig him already, so it's not really necessary. It's a really good hero that needs a lot of skill and focus to use, it is very risky but very strong, removing the risk would make it kinda pointless

@@tpfoxCastro that risk already doesn't exist. You can just buy your way through levels with monkey cash. What I propose is a limited resource that you would need to grind, create content, or actually purchase inorder to maintain a harder difficultly that doesn't give you resources mid game. And if you play chimps you know that retry last round doesn't guarantee a win. If you burned your resources 2 rounds ago then you lose. Rather it's a QoL feature, that let's you complete a challenge without needing perfection. Those who attain perfection get an extra reward in black border. This would just be QoL feature that lets people play at their desired difficulty.

Why are you using benji in chimps...

@@entechgt that implies that I still do that, benjamin helps with moab class later on.

@@therealjome true ig, i just wanted to be the umm actually guy in sorry
