How trait odds work
Each trait has a weight, and the weights in a pool add up to 100, so a trait's weight is its chance in percent. A hatched animal first rolls whether it gets a trait at all (25%), then which one from its pool. A reroll skips the first step. The effect column is the game's own description of each one.
To see what a trait does to a specific animal, pick both in the damage calculator.
Questions
How do you get a trait in Egg Tower Defense?
Every hatch has a 25% chance to come with one, and trait rerolls (from the index rewards and Robux packs) roll a new one. The trait is picked from the pool that fits the animal: attackers, farms and the booster each have their own.
What's the best trait?
Apex for an attacker: 2x damage + a glowing aura, at 0.1% a roll. For a farm it's Midas, and for the Black Cat Monarch.
Do traits stack with shiny and size?
Yes. A trait's damage bonus multiplies on top of the shiny and size bonuses, and its cooldown and range changes apply after. The damage calculator shows any combination.
