If the relay's mana pool is altered by an outside source that isn't another relay, then the mana gained or lost is reduced by 90%.
Output
                                        
Set a targeted Arcane tower that you own as the output tower. While the relay is above 20% mana and the output tower is below 80% mana, the relay loses 2% of its current mana per second. The output tower gains up to 2% of its maximum mana based on the amount of mana the relay lost relative to its maximum mana. Mana transfer scales with the relay's mana regeneration stat.

Cannot be used on this relay's input tower or towers with no mana. Targeting the same tower again will remove the effect.

A cheap utility unique tower that does nothing but redirect mana from one tower to another.

Leyline Relay v4

Post by Ashbringer »

Leyline Relay has been updated to v4!

Author's reason for this update:

No longer regenerates mana at all.
Mana transfer reduced by 60%, but scales with mana regeneration.
Its own mana is now 90% resistant to outside influence, except from other relays.

Leyline Relay v5

Post by Ashbringer »

Leyline Relay has been updated to v5!

Author's reason for this update:

Now compares towertypes instead of families because families return 0 for non families and thus it was breaking towers.

This is an awkward unique because it works exclusively on Arcane towers, so it will depend heavily game to game on if you have towers that it can even be used on.
That being said, in the times I have used it, it has been a great addition.

Without an example of towers that this could cause an issue with, I'd recommend that the limit of Arcane only is removed from this tower.
The combined clauses of relative mana sharing means it can never give hundreds of mana to a low mana tower. As a result, I don't think an abuse case is likely to occur. On the flip side, using this to power a Steam Engine or one of the mana carries like Zues or Dread Lord could actually be quite interesting.
