'''Oversize Nails''' is the [[Engineer Monkey (BTD6)|Engineer Monkey]]'s path 3 tier 1 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases the [[pierce]] of the Engineer Monkey's base [[attack]] by 5 and changes its [[damage type]] from Sharp to Shatter, allowing it to pop [[frozen]] [[Bloon]]s. It has the following special [[crosspath]] bonuses:

Oversize Nails offers a large pierce bonus to ~~tbe~~ main Engineer and a decent pierce bonus to other attacks, and its capability to hit Frozen reduces anti-synergy with freezing towers, including the Cold Sentries of [[Sentry Expert (BTD6)|Sentry Expert]]. The extra pierce on sentries benefits the most during the mid-game, which assists cleanup when used on [[Sprockets (BTD6)|Sprockets]] or Sentry Expert and a further benefit if ~~further~~ upgraded to [[Pin (BTD6)|Pin]]. It's less preferred on [[Sentry Champion (BTD6)|Sentry Champion]] because by that ~~tier it~~ specialises in DPS, which [[Deconstruction (BTD6)|Deconstruction]] ~~fulfills~~ better, instead of supplementary damage. Extra foam pierce allows foam to strip properties from dense groups of Bloons more reliably, and Oversize Nails is cheaper than getting [[Faster Engineering (BTD6)|Faster Engineering]] by cumulative costs.
