Billboard

Contents

Overview

Billboards are a panel of information visible above the spawn points of a map during a build phase. Basic information is visible by default and a more detailed view can be seen when a player holds the 'SHIFT' button (by default).

The number of Physical Resist and Magic Resist Lanes per map is constant (Ie: Gates of Dragonfall will always have 2 Magic Resist lanes and 1 Physical Resist Lane), but their placement is randomly generated every time the map is started.

The number of each Threat Color a wave has is constant for each map on each difficulty, but is random in their placement each wave.

Basic View

The Basic View of the Billboard appears over each spawn point during the Build Phase of each wave. On the Basic View a player can see the name of the lane, the type of resistance the lane will focus on, the number of enemies spawning from the spawn point, and a color to show the relative intensity of the spawn point.

Threat Colors

The color that appears under the name of the lane shows a relative intensity of Enemies that will spawn in that lane for the wave. The color of a lane can change every wave. There are 6 different colors:

• Basic green billboard.png

  Green Threat Lane (lowest threat).

• Basic blue billboard.png

  Blue Threat Lane (more enemy variety than green).

• Basic magenta billboard.png

  Magenta Threat Lane (Focuses on a large number of one type of enemy).

• Basic orange billboard.png

  Orange Threat Lane, with even more intense mobs spawning.

• Basic d-orange billboard.png

  Brown Threat Lane.

• Basic red billboard.png

  Red Threat Lane, with the highest threat possible.

Detailed View

The Detailed View of the Billboard can be seen when a player holds the "SHIFT" key (by default). The detailed view extends the Basic View downwards and shows specific information about what enemies will spawn.
