  3. Build Circus Tent at your base

    Return to base, construct Circus Tent, and send harvesters to work on it. The biome clear unlocks the blueprint; completing the building unlocks The Right Hand Man.

What success looks like

The Right Hand Man is available in the character roster after Circus Tent is completed.

Ability and aiming

Balls deal double damage after hitting the right wall, but half damage after hitting the left wall.

How to use it

Plan the relevant wall contact toward the right side when you want the damage bonus. Keep track of whether a shot has instead contacted the left wall and taken the penalty.

Limits to plan around

The two sides have opposite consequences: right wall means 2× damage and left wall means half damage. A wall bounce is not automatically beneficial.

If it does not work

If The Right Hand Man is missing, check that you cleared Castle x Ramparts, unlocked the Circus Tent blueprint, supplied 5,000 Gold + 600 Crystal, and completed its construction with harvesters.

If the shot behaves differently

When damage changes after a wall contact, first check which wall was hit. The left-wall penalty is part of the ability, not a failed evolution.
