Developer Ninja Kiwi launched Bloons TD Battles 2 Update 1.6.1 on all platforms. The main focus here is to revert the XP changes implemented in a previous patch because it also affected unpopular heroes in the game.
For those who don’t know, the developer adjusted the hero XP gain in the previous major update to limit the power of stronger heroes in the early/mid-game. Players who want to get powerful abilities much quicker must spend money to do so.
While it was a good idea on paper, less popular heroes, such as Quincy, Cyber Quincy, Gwen, Science Gwen, Churchill, and Sentai Churchill, were badly hit by the XP change. Thus, they’ve reverted the XP gain for these heroes only to the amount used before Update 1.6 to encourage more players to use them.
