Sticky Bomb is the Ninja Monkey's path 3 tier 4 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It grants Ninja Monkey an additional sticky bomb attack. Sticky bombs only target MOAB-Class Bloons, and stick to them for 3 seconds before detonating after 2.95 seconds. After detonation, it does 450 damage to the main target and creates a secondary explosion that hits other Bloons inside the blast, dealing 100 damage with 10 pierce and 40 radius. The sticky bomb and its explosion can damage all Bloon types. If the layer is popped before detonation, the sticky bomb is removed. Sticky bombs have an attack cooldown of 4.5 seconds.
Sticky bombs do not target Bloons with the same tier of sticky bomb already attached. They can, however, target Bloons with Master Bomber or Ascended Shadow's sticky bombs attached.
Shurikens from this Ninja have +2 pierce and deal +4 damage to stunned Bloons, like Flash Bomb, and additionally does +4 damage to Bloons with any tier of sticky bomb attached.
With the 0-1-4 crosspath, the explosion from the Sticky Bomb gains a 15% (17.5% with 
Diversion Tactics) chance to distract bloons, but not blimps. With the 0-2-4 crosspath, the Sticky Bomb itself, but not the explosion, also gains the ability to decamo DDTs.

Strategy
[edit | edit source]This section was last updated for: version 51.2
Sticky Bomb does reliable single-target damage. Placement near the front of the track is important, as the detonation has a delay. Its high splash damage can assist against grouped MOABs, but it shouldn't be relied upon due to its slow detonation and low pierce. If there is insufficient cash for the usual Round 100 support (e.g. Spike Storm or First Strike), Sticky Bomb can be used instead.
Since the sticky bomb attack cannot target regular Bloons, an additional tower will be needed if saving into Master Bomber during the midgame. Bloonjitsu provides consistent DPS with Shinobis, the latter also improving the rate of its flash bomb for better cleanup.
Sticky Bomb also sees use as a cheap defense to the first tier of most Bosses. It is a notable counter against Vortex since it cannot remove sticky bombs already attached. However, it is useless against Blastapopoulos, which burns it off.
1-0-4 is the preferred crosspath because it is not worth sacrificing attack speed for decamo. 2-0-4 can be added for better consistency against groups and take advantage of its extra damage to stunned and stickied Bloons, though this pierce buff is insignificant without Shinobi.

- "Shuriken seeking targets too far away has been fixed" (bug fix)
Sticky bomb: Detonation timer reduced ― 4s → 3s- Sticky bomb: Can no longer be removed by Glue Gunner glue (bug fix)
- Caltrops no longer add to the damage count of other towers when the Ninja Monkey is sold (bug fix)
"[S]hould no longer be able to occasionally shoot with an infinite range in specific setups" (bug fix)
- Caltrops: attack speed reduced by 50%
- Caltrops: pierce increased by 3
- Note: Due to an oversight, Grandmaster Ninja's caltrop pierce is unchanged
“
While Sticky Bomb still has issues we are investigating, this damage buff allows Sticky Bombs to destroy all regular MOABs from round 81 to 100 in a single bomb in standard games whether they are fortified or not. In addition since this damage runs off a timed function, somewhat similar to Alchemist’s Unstable Concoction, we felt that adding a range increase to the Sticky attack similar to Concoction should give a better chance to actually explode before the target MOAB is destroyed by other towers.

- Sticky Bomb attack: Should work correctly now and not break with DoTs (bug fix)
“
To try and allow more strategic use Ninja’s Sticky Bombs will now use the targeting of the main tower instead of always Strong. Additionally as they weren’t feeling good enough in general Sticky Bombs will now deal a smaller amount of damage in an AoE to anything surrounding the main target.

- Sticky Bomb: Now follows the tower's current targeting instead of always targeting Strong
- Sticky Bomb: Now generates an additional AoE on explosion that deals 100 damage

As ninja is the ‘Camo Specialist’ and has been since inception, it is the only tower that will unlock Camo Prioritization on the base tower.

- Camo Prioritization filter added
- 0-1-4, 0-2-4
- Caltrop attack: Gains 15% distraction chance (bug fix)
- Flash bomb attack: Gains 15% distraction chance (bug fix)
“
Sticky Bomb feels like it is in a very strong point right now in a lot of situations, though flash bomb isn’t good enough without a great deal of support leading into it, this shift should open up for challenge viability especially in Alternate Bloon Rounds games.

- Upgrade cost increased ― $4,500 → $5,000
Overall cost is unchanged (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
“
frequently unused caltrops clutter up the screen and cause extra lag we want to balance out their lifespan to reduce the number always on screen and make them no longer last longer than the base Spike Factory.

”
- Caltrop: Lifespan reduced ― 70s → 35s
“
We’re mindful that this has been in place since launch, but still think this change could lead to more balanced crosspath Ninja play for casual and for apex players. Ninja's 1xx feels like it does too much, granting both range and attack speed to all crosspaths, so these benefits are now being split apart. As Sticky feels like it’s doing a fair lot of work these days we’re somewhat reworking this path into a range path but taking away the free ‘bonus range’ that Sticky used to gain independent of the tower radius.

”
- Range increased ― 40 units → 55 units
- Ninja Discipline crosspath no longer increases range, but overall range is still larger ― 47 units → 55 units
- Sticky Bomb: No longer has 50% more range than the base attack
- Note: Master Bomber's Sticky Bombs still have full map range
- Multiple Sticky Bombs should no longer be able to stack the single target damage of their explosions when clustered together (bug fix)
“
Flash Bomb’s long time between bombs, without improvements on the main attack leaves this as quite a bad stepping stone, for now due to this long downtime we want to try increasing the stun duration.
— Update notes
— Update notes
”
- Flash Bomb: Stun duration increased ― 1s → 1.3s
“
For an early game Distraction improvement the consistency of blowbacks is being averaged out more with increased minimum distance but reduced maximum, in many cases there would not actually be 250 units of track length in front of defenses to be blown back across anyway so the overall average distance is slightly lower. More at the mid to endgame we are also weakening distraction distance against Ceramics specifically as by this point Ninja have stacked so much speed and projectiles the consistency doesn’t matter anymore. Finally, distraction values for secondary projectiles are being modified, as Distraction chance as it has existed was never balanced around more than the main attack

- 0-1-4, 0-2-4
- Caltrop: distraction chance reduced ― 15% → 10%
- Flash Bomb: distraction chance increased ― 15% → 30%
“
Flash Bomb has pierce too excessive for Shinobi Tactics to do anything for it but then lacks any actual damage output, so this high pierce is trading in for greater damage.
— Update notes
— Update notes
”
- Flash Bomb damage increased ― 1 → 3
- Flash Bomb pierce reduced ― 60 → 30
- Flash Bomb explosion: stun lasts through 2 more layers to match the new damage value
“
Bottom path Ninja never does anything with the main shuriken projectile past the xx1 upgrade leaving it inconsequential on higher tiers. Given that Flash Bombs can feel lacking without heavy support, we’re trying out a change that makes Flash Bomb Ninja scale better with attack speed and pierce as something of a combo-attacker. Overall, this feels pretty ‘right’ for ninjas and more importantly it’s cool and sometimes that’s what matters most.

- Flash bomb: No longer fails to stun targets if given external damage buffs (bug fix)
- Shuriken: Now deals +3 damage to stickied Bloons
- Sticky bomb: Damage to main target reduced ― 500 → 450
- Shuriken: Now deals +3 damage to stunned Bloons
“
While a great early game option, Ninja generally struggles with dominant crosspathing choices and also has relatively poor base tower value. Without going into every single change, T3s onward remain relatively unchanged with a lot of prices below T3 being moved around from less favorable crosspaths into better/higher tier upgrades.

“
To allow Shinobi combos to scale more effectively with the Flash Bomb, the combo-attack pattern is being improved with more base Shuriken pierce & slightly larger bonuses to Stunned & Stickied targets – however the increased range at T4 is being removed.
