Night Owl at Lv 1. A staged lane: the same nightmares, with health set from the toy's own Lv 1 damage, walk at it.

How it works.

The Bedtime Book says, at Lv 1

30 damage every 1.5s. Toughness 300. Hits flying monsters.

And at Lv 25

88 damage every 1.3s. Toughness 660. Hits flying monsters.

Every level, 1 to 25.

Upgrading costs coins, once, and lasts for good. Lv 25 costs 399,410 coins in all. The green rows are the levels with a milestone perk.

Lv 1 against Lv 25.

The same scene twice, recorded in the game: on top with the toy at Lv 1, below at Lv 25.

A staged lane: the same nightmares, with health set from the toy's own Lv 1 damage, walk at it. The nightmares and their health are the same in both halves: only the toy's level differs.
Lv 1All defeated in 8.2s
Lv 25All defeated in 2.2s

Measured from the recording. Nightmares in a real night have more health the deeper the level (the curve), so times there differ; the ratio is what an upgrade buys. Every toy's comparison

Toy Mastery.

From campaign level 100, a Night Owl at Lv 25 can go on through 25 Mastery ranks. Each rank adds 0.4% to its damage and toughness: +10% at M25.
