Do spells really level up?

[TheRedBird]

Red says that spells level up as you upgrade your birds,but I dont see the difference!

There is a difference.
You can see that difference when you fire a spell right at the beginning of a level, before you fire any other bird.
The spell will fill the Destructometer VERY slowly and give VERY few points, because it acts like a level 1 bird.
However, if you fire a spell right after a bird, then the spell will act like the bird you just fired. So if you have a level 5 Bomb and fire a spell after Bomb, then the spell will act like a level 5 bird.
If you fire a spell after a level 7 bird, it will act like a level 7 bird.
That fact is why I try to fire spells right after my highest-levelled birds, since that will net more points and more Destructometer filling.

It works that way?I fire spells before firing a bird usually

[RedYoshi45]

Apparently it does – at least that’s what I noticed…
Always fire spells after firing a bird. Don’t use spells as the first card – wherever possible, of course.

But if thats the case,the exploding chili is the best at its job.

Yoshi, we discussed this a few weeks ago. I totally agree about using them second.

The spells should all be the same level as your highest leveled bird. The order in which you throw them should not matter. We’ll look into this. Thanks!

I don’t notice much, if any, difference in scores between bird and spell use or in the order in which they’re used.

@bankler So if my birds are Elder Bronze then my spells are also Elder Bronze?

[RedYoshi45]

@bankler
I DEFINITELY get a much lower score outcome if I fire the spell before anything else. Total destruction in a room can’t net just 50,000-60,000 points when my highest levelled bird is at level 6.
