Strategy

[edit | edit source]
This section was last updated for: version 53.2

The Biggest One is a powerful and easy to use global grouped popping power and blimp stunner that lacks single-target damage. Target it so that each explosion covers the largest portion possible of the track to focus. Striker Jones is the only viable Hero for The Biggest One because his direct buffs to attack speed and damage type cannot be easily replaced. On harder maps, an Overclock is also necessary in order for The Biggest One to consistently catch Super Ceramics and DDTs. MOAB Eliminator is the optimal combo for The Biggest One, since it has high single-target damage that also pairs well with Striker Jones.

Generally speaking, 5-0-2 is optimal on longer maps and maps with wide bends, where the burn duration can be fully taken advantage of and blasts more reliably hit Bloons. However, 5-2-0 is better on short or multilane maps because of more reliable stuns.

  • Buff Main explosion: base damage increased ― 10 → 20
  • Buff Upgrade cost reduced ― $30,000 → $24,000
    • Buff Overall cost reduced by $8,000 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Buff "Blast radius increased by a big amount"
  • Buff Deals 3x damage to any Ceramic or higher
  • Nerf Price increased ― $24,000 → $28,000
  • Explosion art updated compared to 4-x-x
  • Nerf Explosion: damage to Ceramics and MOAB-Class reduced ― +40 → +20
  • Buff Shockwave: now deals +20 damage to Ceramics
  • Nerf Shockwave: damage to Ceramics reduced by 10
    • Note: Main explosion Ceramic damage bonus is unchanged
  • "Mortars should no longer display line of sight as they can ignore all blockers"
  • "The mortar’s projectiles should no longer visually drop back down the barrel"
5xx The Biggest One description updated as it deals much more damage now
— Update notes
  • Change Description changed ― "Smashes through 20 layers of Bloon over a huge area." → "Smashes deeply through Bloons and layers over a huge area."
Mortar’s Faster Reload feels like a ‘required’ as a crosspath with Burny Stuff never scaling well on any path but it’s own. We like choices not requirements so to counter this we have made Burny Stuff scale with top-path damage & shifted a small amount of the speed from Faster Reload onto the base mortar and reduced base accuracy considerably.
— Update notes
  • Buff Mortar base rate of fire increased ― 2.2s → 2s
  • Nerf Random spread radius increased ― 18 → 30
    • Note: Random spread with X-X-1 Increased Accuracy is unchanged (8)
5-0-2
  • Buff Damage over time: Damage per tick increased ― 1 → 25
We felt like we set up the math quite well with Mortar changes last update, but regardless of this missed shots due to inaccuracy vs. attack speed turned out to be unpopular and impacted the middle path too severely. Fortunately this change led to the community finding some critical bugs in the middle path upgrades there since Mortar’s release! That said, since low tier Mortars were never powerful we chose to leave the speed buff from last update but revert the accuracy nerf.
— Update notes
  • Buff Base accuracy increased ― 30 → 18
Mortar top path feels too weak for the lead up to the Tier 5, so it along with the T5 have had some general number increases. Additionally the 302 crosspath has failed to ever see a great deal of use compared to much faster firing, to make it easier to to use up power from the DoT this path will now burn through faster
— Update notes
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $350 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Buff Center AoE damage increased ― 20 → 25
  • Buff Center AoE damage to Ceramic increased ― +10 → +20
5-0-2
  • Buff DoT: Damage rate increased ― 1.25s → 0.625s
  • Nerf DoT: Duration reduced ― 3.75s → 1.875s
5-0-2
  • Buff Biggest One now correctly applies burn to DDTs without MIB as long as it can detect camo (bug fix)
It has been hard for The Bloon Solver & The Biggest One to exist so close in the same price range when they fill the same role but with The Biggest One being simply better and more versatile, so we have ramped The Biggest One to fill a better role but for a higher cost.
— Update notes
  • Nerf Upgrade cost increased ― $28,000 → $36,000
  • Buff Shockwave: Can now stun MOAB Class Bloons at a reduced rate
    • MOAB 0.3s, BFB/DDT 0.2s, ZOMG 0.1s
The recent Mortar 5xx rework significantly devalued 502 crosspath, undermining the work we previously put into trying to balance that choice
— Update notes
5-0-2
  • Buff DoT: damage increased ― 25 → 45
As the Rapid Reload crosspath has actually fallen behind in value compared to Burny Stuff for top path Mortars we want to try a slight stun duration increase as this buffs the base path with a larger benefit to Rapid Reload mortars as a stalling option.
— Update notes
  • Buff Stun: duration MOABs increased ― 0.3s → 0.5s
  • Buff Stun: duration BFBs increased ― 0.2s → 0.3s
  • Buff Stun: duration DDTs increased ― 0.2s → 0.3s
  • Buff Stun: duration to non-MOABs increased ― 0.5s → 0.75s
Such a heavily explosive based tower upgrade to ignore its explosive weakness on every path didn’t sit right, some of the Normal damage type on top path is now trading in to make it stronger in other ways.
— Update notes
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $1,500 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Buff  Shockwave damage increased ― 1 → 2
  • Nerf  Main center explosion damage type ― Normal → Explosion
5-0-2
  • Buff Burny Stuff crosspath damage increased ― 45 → 50
General tweaks to top path upgrade flow, slightly moving up the costpoint but improving the power of this path.
— Update notes
  • Nerf Overall cost increased by $625 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Buff Center explosion: damage to Ceramics increased ― +20 → +30
  • Buff Center explosion: damage to MOAB-Class increased ― +20 → +30
5-0-2
  • Buff No longer has halved burn duration ― 1.875s → 3.75s
  • Buff Damage over time: damage per tick increased ― 50 → 60
Improvements made for the underused damage over time crosspaths [...]
— Update notes
5-0-2
  • Buff DoT damage increased ― 60 → 65
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $150 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $400 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
The Biggest Stun gains great value from any rate buffs, causing it to become a powerful full game lockdown without very much support.
— Update notes
  • Nerf Stun: Duration for MOABs reduced ― 0.5s → 0.4s
  • Nerf Stun: Duration for BFBs and DDTs reduced ― 0.3s → 0.2s
