The '''Master Builder''' is the [[Engineer Monkey (BTD6)|Engineer Monkey]]'s [[Paragon]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'', introduced in {{BTD6 version|32.0}}. It is a combination of [[Sentry Champion (BTD6)|Sentry Champion]], [[Ultraboost (BTD6)|Ultraboost]], and [[XXXL Trap (BTD6)|XXXL Trap]]. The Master Builder [[attack]]s by firing three nails at a time that can [[Pin (BTD6)|Pin]] any Bloon except [[BAD (BTD6)|BAD]]s and [[Boss Bloon]]s, [[stun]]ning them for 5 seconds on each hit. At the end of each [[round]], it applies an [[Ultraboost (BTD6)|Ultraboost]]-like effect to itself that permanently increases its [[attack speed]] by 30%.

===Mega Sentry=== | |||
'''Mega Sentry''' allows the player to place a [[sub-tower]] anywhere on the map. It deploys a Green Sentry Paragon on its first use, a Red Sentry Paragon on its second use, a Blue Sentry Paragon on its third use, then repeats the cycle with the Green Sentry Paragon. Its icon changes to indicate which Mega Sentry it will deploy next. If a Mega Sentry is sold or a second copy of the same Sentry is placed with the ability, it and all of its Modified Sentry Paragons detonate instantly. This ability has a base cooldown of 20 seconds. | |||
If the Master Builder is sold, all of its Mega Sentries and Modified Sentry Paragons | If the Master Builder is sold, all of its Mega Sentries and Modified Sentry Paragons explode. The Mega Sentries' explosions have some of the highest non-instakill damage values in the game and deal much more damage to [[Boss Bloon]]s. Each of these explosions have 40 radius. | ||
Each Mega Sentry has a [[range]] of 70 [[distance unit]]s and has the same detonation and Modified Sentry Paragon spawning mechanics, but has a unique main attack. The stats of the Mega Sentries and Modified Sentry Paragons, as well as the ability cooldown, depend on the Master Builder's Degree. | Each Mega Sentry has a [[range]] of 70 [[distance unit]]s and has the same detonation and Modified Sentry Paragon spawning mechanics, but has a unique main attack. The stats of the Mega Sentries and Modified Sentry Paragons, as well as the ability cooldown, depend on the Master Builder's Degree. | ||
Additionally, the mega sentries act differently compared to other sub towers, in that they can be picked up by the special poperations heli, but only as a doorgunner. | |||

'''Power Glove'''<ref name="powerglove">Internal name <code>PowerGloveAAIcon.png</code> for the ability icon</ref> is a more powerful version of [[Overclock (BTD6)|Overclock]].

[[Banana Farm (BTD6)|Banana Farm]]s gain +66.67% production, rounded up. The main target receives this buff for 60 seconds (15 seconds for Paragons), and gains an aura that gives the buff to all towers and sub-towers within 30 range of the main target (including newly placed towers) for 30 seconds. This main target can be anyone except itself and any sentry. The aura can affect all except Paragons. [[Magus Perfectus]]'s Arcane Metamorphosis has a special interaction that also increases its Mana consumption by roughly +66.67% while affected by Power Glove. | ||

Master Builder has outstanding support on Paragons, in addition to Mega Sentries that can deal a lot of damage at once when detonated. It stands out on Timed Boss Events, as well as Least Tier Boss Events. The nailgun is decent at stalling blimps while doing fair damage to Bosses. Versus Bosses, its best matchup is [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]], due to the lack of skull protection while its worst matchup is [[Blastapopoulos (BTD6)|Blastapopoulos]] because of the inability for Mega Sentries to pop Purple and the increased ability cooldowns. | Master Builder has outstanding support on Paragons, in addition to Mega Sentries that can deal a lot of damage at once when detonated.

Versus Bosses, its best matchup is [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]], due to the lack of skull protection while its worst matchup is [[Blastapopoulos (BTD6)|Blastapopoulos]] because of the inability for Mega Sentries to pop Purple (notably, it's immune to Mega Sentry's self-destruct without purple removal from [[Ezili (BTD6)|Ezili]]'s Heartstopper<!--rtg doesn't work on bosses-->) and the increased ability cooldowns. Its Boss matchup also depends on its Power Glove synergies with other Paragons, which is the main incentive for buying Master Builder. | ||
Power Glove works best on expensive Paragons such as [[Goliath Doomship]], [[Magus Perfectus]], and [[Mega Massive Munitions Factory]]. Magus Perfectus is especially effective due to its powerful Arcane Metamorphosis ability; the attack boost further improves the already immense DPS. For the other Paragons, the buff is beneficial for their main attacks, particularly during downtime of their abilities. If taking advantage of the aura, use it for dense groups of high-DPS Tier 5's, preferably still targeting the ability onto Paragons, since the lower downtime on a single Paragon compared to a T5 is negligible when a single Paragon can do enormous DPS, and cannot stack with normal Overclock. | |||
For | Degrees are important for Master Builder so it can speed up its self-ultraboost, have improved one-shot capabilities, and higher uptime for its Power Glove on Paragons. For just the Power Glove, Degree 100 will still not have full uptime on a single Paragon, for up to 28.33% uptime<!--15/52.94117=0.2833--> without nearby submerged [[Nautic Siege Core]]. However, Master Builder having a degree at least matching Magus Perfectus will allow the Power Glove to always be up by the time the Arcane Metamorphosis ability becomes ready.<!--90s, 90s, matches--> For the aura buff to non-Paragons, ensure to pack as many useful units as tightly as possible. With Degree 100, a submerged [[Nautic Siege Core]], and {{BTD6 mk|Global Ability Cooldowns}}, it is barely below full uptime.<!--d43=61.6438 cooldown, *.97 goes just below 60--> | ||
For maximum pops, [[XXXL Trap (BTD6)|XXXL Trap]] paired with [[Rubber to Gold (BTD6)|Rubber to Gold]], [[Monkey City (BTD6)|Monkey City]], and [[Bounty Hunter]] is the best method of building its pops; its income generation builds most of the Master Builder's pop requirement. Additionally, [[Ultraboost (BTD6)|Ultraboost]] and [[Overclock (BTD6)|Overclock]]s can be used to boost Farms for more income. For cheapest T2 and T3 crosspaths for the most tiers, use 0-2-2 and 0-2-3, the cheapest T4 for the most tiers is 4-2-0 [[Sentry Expert (BTD6)|Sentry Expert]], and for most expensive use 2-4-0 Overclocks. | |||
