How traits and talents stack
A dragon holds one trait, rolled with Trait Shards at the Trait Altar in the lobby. Talents are bought per dragon with Coins once you've beaten Hard mode. Both feed the damage calculator, which shows what a trait and talent levels do to any dragon's level.
Questions
What is the best trait in Dragon Tower Defense?
Annihilator, the only Secret trait: +100% damage. It's a 0.05% roll (1 in 2,000), so about 1,386 rolls for a 50% chance and 4,605 for 90%.
How do you get Trait Shards?
From Trait Crates, which can drop when you win: 2% on Easy, 5% on Normal, 10% on Hard, 15% on Insane, 20% on Nightmare. Each crate holds 1 shard. Shards also come from the battle pass, the Mine, Endless wave 100 and the Altar's shop (3 for 49 Robux, 10 for 149 Robux, 50 for 699 Robux).
What does Trait Hunter do?
It doubles the chance of every Epic or rarer trait for 799 Robux. Annihilator goes from 0.05% to 0.1%, and the common traits shrink to make room.
Which dragons can't have a trait?
Gold Dragon, Boulder Dragon, Gumball Dragon, Sugar Rush Dragon: dragons that farm Cash, block the road or boost others (Buff, Farm, Wall) don't take traits.
How much do talents cost?
Each talent has 5 levels priced 200, 400, 700, 1,100, 1,600 Coins, times the dragon's rarity: x0.5 Common, x0.75 Uncommon, x1 Rare, x1.5 Epic, x2 Legendary, x3 Mythic, x4 Exclusive, x5 Secret. Maxing one talent costs 2,000 Coins on a Common and 20,000 on a Secret.
