…and they say the DPS of the new archer tower HASNT CHANGED

[Gama321]

DPS has actually halved (Damage per shot )
But as Dahimi said its the effective dps that has gone up by increasing rate of fire, that's the point.

[SharkyFinn]

No, the DPS hasn't changed. However, they did change the way the archer towers behave to make them more effective. You should expect to feel a difference, because they are different. If Supercell wanted them to be the exact same, they wouldn't have bothered to change them in the first place.

DPS stands for damage per second, not damage per shot.

I love how everything gets predicated with this type of trash snarky stuff.

Well, that would be pretty obvious would it not? SharkyFinn has a point. If SC didn't want to change the Archer Tower, why bother?

That's not my point. My point is that there seems to be an obvious change in DPS.

It depends on your understanding of DPS. As can be seen, some believe that it is damage per shot, but Sc has it in damage per second. DPS remains the same, they just shoot fast to avoid overspill of damage to lower tier troops. Hence Dahimi saying the effective DPS is enhanced, not the theoretical DPS. Also, if you have evidence to support your claim (pics) it would lend support to your argument

god damn, i said that this was a gut feeling, and that "my proof" was purely anecdotal. Ive seen the same single player vid supposedly showing that the dps did not change with the new update, but all i know is that today my lvl 3 drags died faster than normal.
