They are exceptionally powerful (and exceptionally expensive) upgrades that combine major elements of all three of a [[tower]]'s tier 5 upgrades. Paragons have massive [[damage]] bonuses against [[Boss Bloon]]s, which were introduced in the same update, making them essential against high-tier bosses in [[Boss Bloon Event]]s, [[Boss Challenge]]s, and [[Boss Rush]]es. | ||
Upgrading a tier 5 tower into a Paragon requires having all three tier 5 versions of the same tower on the map at the same time. For example, creating the [[Dart Monkey (BTD6)|Dart Monkey]]'s Paragon requires having a Dart Monkey with the [[Ultra-Juggernaut (BTD6)|Ultra-Juggernaut]] upgrade, a Dart Monkey with the [[Plasma Monkey Fan Club (BTD6)|Plasma Monkey Fan Club]] upgrade, and a Dart Monkey with the [[Crossbow Master (BTD6)|Crossbow Master]] upgrade all on the map at the same time.

In [[Sandbox (BTD6)|Sandbox]] mode, the option to upgrade to a Paragon does not appear unless the player has already made that Paragon at least once in another game mode. Once one of the tier 5 towers is upgraded into a Paragon, it absorbs all other towers of the same tower type and [[Paragon Power Totem]]s on the map, merging them into a single tower. Paragons come with a Degree stat that affects how powerful it is, which is determined by multiple factors: | ||
*The amount of extra cash invested on the Paragon menu plus the total amount of cash invested into the towers absorbed | *The amount of extra cash invested on the Paragon menu plus the total amount of cash invested into the towers absorbed | ||
*The total number of upgrade tiers on non-tier-5 towers absorbed | *The total number of upgrade tiers on non-tier-5 towers absorbed | ||
