Sun Temple (BTD6)

(One intermediate revision by the same user not shown)

Line 19:

'''Sun Temple''' is the [[Super Monkey (BTD6)|Super Monkey]]'s path 1 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It replaces the attack of the [[Sun Avatar (BTD6)|Sun Avatar]] with a single sunbeam that can pop any type of Bloon, deals 5 damage with 20 pierce, and is shot every 0.06s at base. The Temple also gains +15 range and the tower's footprint increases from a circle with a radius of 11 units to a 37x40 rectangle.

When bought, all towers in the range of the base Sun Avatar are sacrificed (except [[Paragon|Paragons]], [[Heroes]] and [[Powers]]). The total amount of sacrifice value for each category of tower ([[Primary]], [[Military]], [[Magic]], and [[Support]]) offers special modifications to the Temple that can make the main attack more powerful, add additional attacks, allow it to create sub-towers or grant buffs to other Monkeys in range. The minimum amount of cash value (base towers + upgrades) required to obtain a benefit is $10,001 and they increase for every $5,000 of additional value. The benefits are maxed out when the total value of the sacrificed towers is $50,001 or more. The game will also ask for the player's confirmation prior to sacrificing towers when the upgrade icon is pressed.

The game will also ask for the player's confirmation prior to sacrificing towers when the upgrade icon is pressed. While transforming, it won't attack until after about 3 seconds.

The Sun Temple can only obtain benefits from a maximum of three categories. If the player sacrifices towers from all four categories to the Temple, the category with the least amount of value is ignored. The absorbed cash value from the sacrificed towers does not increase [[sellback]] value of the Sun Temple.

Line 46:

Most of the time there is little reason to not maximize the sacrifices on a specific category if going for Primary, Military or Magic categories. But if the budget doesn't allow it, certain intermediate sacrifices are still worth it, specially in the Support category. This is usually the case in Least Cash [[Boss Bloon Event|Boss Bloon Events]] where players might opt to only use Support sacrifices on a Temple because the spent value is usually worth the benefits. Common thresholds are $15,001 for a 10% discount on all upgrades, $35,001 for +1 bonus damage, $40,001 for 20% upgrade discount or $45,001 for the maximum end of round income of $5,000.

A Sun Temple without sacrifices is never worth it for its cost because the main attack is relatively weak~~, specially when compared with~~ one or more buffed Sun Avatars for a similar amount of space, but if used as a Insta-Monkey then it's still more useful than most T3's.

A Sun Temple without sacrifices is never worth it for its cost because the main attack is relatively weak; one or more buffed Sun Avatars for a similar amount of space are just better, but if used as a Insta-Monkey then it's still more useful than most T3's.
