Thanks for your patience!!! - Quests! Quests are self-contained challenges with their own special rules, difficulty, and unlock requirements. Patch joins the main menu and acts as the entry point for the Quest system. The intent along with fun gameplay is to sprinkle more story into the game, teaching certain strategies, introducing game modes, trying out items before unlocking them, as well as being a place for us to experiment with new mechanics. Did someone say special missions? No we didn’t say that for 36, but definitely downstream. - With the launch of the Quests system we have 3 beginner Quests aimed towards newer players. In future updates we will expand this with mid-rank, high rank, and expert level Quests that will introduce higher level ideas and challenges. - Beast Handler Quest - The Dartling Gunner unlocks via a basic pop target objective, but this was a simple system and had nothing to do with the tower itself. To unlock the Beast Handler with this update, rank 40+ players will take on a short adventure using the lower tiers of this tower. - Race Introduction - When Races unlock at rank 20, they can be quite an intimidating system to start learning. Now rank 20+ players will be able to access their first persistent race, available from the Quest menu. This is a short introduction aimed at new players, or players new to Races. More challenging Race Quests will be added in the future. - Quincy’s Trial - All players start the game with Quincy available, and now from the Quest menu or from Quincy's profile on the Hero menu players will be able to engage in a short mission showcasing his strengths ##### New Awesome - New Map - Polyphemus - No, Lotus Island was never going to be the only stop on that epic journey - Your next adventure is Polyphemus, whose one great eye closes over any towers in its site. Never fear, unlike Monkdyseus, your crew is not dead, just out of play until you can open the eye again. - Another one made with challenges in mind, and yes, we’ll look for other uses for this mechanic in the future. - New Achievements - a simple intro to quests with: Side Quest, World League Training - New Trophy Store Items - Monkeys: Tack Shooter Hedgehog pet - Bloons: Lobster BFB skin - Game & UI: Avatar73 - Necromancer, Avatar74 - Darts, Avatar75 - Gravelord Lych, Avatar76 - Sun Hat Adora - Competition Winning items - Banner29 - community banner by ratcrunch - Avatar of Darkness - Limited Time only - Alchemist Flower splash projectiles, Banner29 - Blossom Temple - New CT Team Store items - Base Props: Dino Spring Egg, Cake Baker Monkey - Icons: Overclocked Icon, Choc Bunny icon - Frames: Bloon From The Dead frame, Flower Burst frame ##### Game Changes / Additions - Reworked towers with secondary attack target op _[Truncated at 4000 characters — full notes: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/960090/view/6580362571642714138]_
