Universal Tower Defense Traits System

Traits are one of the most critical mechanics in Universal Tower Defense. They are passive buffs that can multiply a unit's damage, range, or attack speed, turning a standard unit into a god-tier carry. This page covers every available trait, their drop rates, and which units they suit best.

How Traits Work

1

Visit the Traits NPC

Located in the main Lobby, to the left of the Summoning area.

2

Select a Unit

Choose a unit from your inventory. Units can hold up to 2 Trait Slots (Slot 2 unlocks at Level 50).

3

Reroll

1 Reroll Token or 50 Gems per roll

Rerolling is RNG-based. You can choose to 'Keep' old traits or 'Equip' new ones.

Community FAQ & Hot Topics

Do Traits Stack?

Yes and No. You **cannot** have two of the exact same trait (e.g., Double Godly is impossible). However, you **can** have two different damage traits (e.g., Godly + Sacred). The community confirms that these stats stack additively.

Is there a Pity System for Traits?

As of Update 1.0.6, there is a hidden 'Mythic Pity' at **1,000 Rerolls** which guarantees a Mythic trait or higher. There is no official 'Secret Pity' confirmed by developers yet.

What is the best Trait combo for Jinoo (Monarch)?

The current community meta build for Jinoo is **Ruler + Godly** (Glass Cannon Build) for maximum damage output in Infinite Mode. For safer runs, **Ruler + Astral** is used to increase the summon range.
