Magician's Coil v2

Magician's Coil has been updated to v2!

Author's reason for this update:

- Rephrased lore text.
- Reduced gold cost from 2100 to 1500.
- Reduced Indigo Zap's spell damage from 1000 + 20 per level to 700 + 14 per level.

Initial gold cost of 2100 / 2600 / 3100 was quite disproportionate, so I amended it as I especially wanted the first and second family members to be accessible much earlier during the game.

This is a solid rare spell carry. Prince of Lightning with a twist.

Magician's Coil v3

Magician's Coil has been updated to v3!

Author's reason for this update:

Reduced tower's base mana regeneration from 5 to 3

Indigo Zap
- Changed target SFX

Greater Banishment:
- Changed tower SFX
- Increased ability cooldown from 5 to 6 seconds
- Increased AoE from 200 to 400
- No longer affectes all enemies in range, but up to 3 targets only
- Level scaling no longer increases duration, but number of max targets
- Reduced duration against bosses from 3 to 1 second

Greater Banishment was way too unbalanced initially. You were able to stunlock all enemies in range with just a little bit of investment into buff duration.

Magician's Coil has been updated to v4!

Author's reason for this update:

Removed global BuffType and its export/import feature as it no longer served any purpose within the code.
Redesigned tower model as it was using an out-of-date doodad import that no longer exists within the main map.
