A list of op upgrades for zombies that popcap can fix if they do repairvilleUltra combo: Now that punches can do critical damage, you can pretty much take down most classes in a second, can be fixed by making the last punch do less damageextra special: This upgrade can be fixed by putting down the shield immediatly once you shoot the ball, or making the upgrade 4 pointsRipcord: Do I need to explain it? Lower the rate of fire increasedCritical tag: With this, it's too easy to get tags. Just a few shots and you got a lock for missiles. Increase to 5 points or increase the amount of shots needed to get three tagsScuttle shot: I already explained it in a different post, lower the amount of times the enemy will be pushed back and only cancel the abilities pea gatling and sunbeamHuge fuse: With this upgrade, you can instantly take down most opponents with imp punt and its near impossible to escape. Just don't immediately explode the imp punt when it hits an opponent, but increase the damage that you deal when you hit the imp puntHuge gap (I think thats what its called): Just lower the amount of distance gained through the tackleSpin class: Either lower the amount of time saved when using the cannonn or increase the price to 4 pointssteam blaster: you get the ideaI know I missed a bunch btw, feel free to tell anymore upgrades that are op

Hardened was adjusted and it's better now, the Oak gets a larger benefit than the Acorn, but Acorns are so tiny, that I'd rather see it a little different, like say:Hardened: Gives your Oak form +100 (or some other number) health and gives any Acorns riding on your Oak form +25 health.Acorn treetop riders aren't given enough incentive to be up there, and they lose their mobility and are much easier to hit while riding an Oak, especially after losing that armor in a recent patch. You're really vulnerable up there right now.

Hardened for Acorn is illogically absurd. A character with a hitbox that small should never have 100HP. It gets even worse when Acorn One-Tricks use this as it's almost impossible to kill them. It's silly that the smallest character in the game can have just as much health as Cactus/Sunflower/Rose.

I think that Hardened has been already nerfed. The amount of health decreased from 125 to 100 only. Am I right?

I don't think Ripcord is OP.As posted another thread, I had begun to activate Impkata with Ripcord against invisible Night Cap and immediately after that Night Cap activated Fung Fu. I was vanquished faster in March-May version BFN.I think Rapid Fire (Soldier) and Hard Target are Strong.

@agqwpe663oe6I agree with all of these except for Huge gap, it's currently fairly gimmicky and isn't even an "upgrade" in certain scenarios, for an example if you try and tackle someone up close but you fail, you're even more out-positioned as you're in deep of the enemy lines with no support.As for an upgrade that should easily replace it on this list (I know this is also an upgrade for the plants, but since there are more zombie supports I think I should mention it). Hard target, it shouldn't stack at all to begin with and ever since the recent patch where they buffed it (which is just, why?) it's even more of a headache to deal with supports than it already was. Imo the speed boost should not stack with itself (like I said earlier), as already a 25% speed boost can save you and is easily worth the measly 3 upgrade points you need to spend to use it.

some of my ideas:
Face bite should be removed, 41 is plenty.
Hard target decrease increased speed.
Blossom split second adjacent ally heal rate in half.
Engineer shouldn't have hard target.

Maybe instead of nerfing these upgrades you could just buff every other upgrade. Stuff like decreasing their cost (Party Time & legendary upgrades) to increasing their effectiveness is always welcome as a no-life max rank. Though it may be unfair to those just starting in the game with less options.

I'm SO SAD that they have made Quick Egress unstackable with Hard Target... One time I received SO EXTREMELY high-speed boost maybe even 125% but it was in Giddy Park.

@aikohuThe devs reworked the upgrade so it gives 25 hp to Acorn and 75 hp to big man Oak.

@CharlesHlcBendel Not only does Ripcord give you double the fire rate for Impkata, but it reduces the time you're vulnerable to damage and basically reduces the cooldown a little bit because cooldown starts after using it.
