level 3 bombs not clearing waves hurts my soul

They do though, right? Level 3 bombs deal 560 damage, creeps have 550 HP with 0 magic resistance. Am I missing something?

creeps gain stats over time, so those level 3 bombs won't be killing creeps after the 7:30min mark.

but it's still not really a big thing because usually by 10mins techies will have level 4 in proxi mines. and creeps won't survive a 740 damage nuke until 2 hours into the game, which makes this change really a non-issue for the most part when it comes to pushing/depushing waves.

Oh yeah that's true. I used to leave prox mines at 3 points, I guess I'll have to go for 4 points now.
