It | The '''Desperado''' is a [[Primary]] [[tower]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'', introduced in {{BTD6 version|49.0}}. It uses a pistol that fires twice in rapid succession each time it [[attack]]s. It has high [[range]] but low [[pierce]] and [[damage]], and cannot pop [[Lead Bloon (BTD6)|Lead Bloon]]s, [[Frozen]] Bloons, or [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloon]]s. Its [[upgrade]]s focus on other weapons with different attacking styles. Its first path uses revolvers that fire multiple times per attack which can be further upgraded to fire even faster. Its second path uses a long-range rifle that can land [[Crit]]s, with further upgrades able to place bounties on Bloons that increases the damage they take and generates more [[cash]] when popped, and unlocks two [[Activated Ability|Activated Abilities]] for support. Its third path uses a shotgun that pushes Bloons back, with further upgrades improving shotgun power and knockback with life loss gimmicks.<ref name="steam-news">{{cite|url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/960090/view/533227017874703216|title=New Monkey Coming June 18!|publisher=Steam News|retrieved=12 jun 2025}}</ref> | ||

The Desperado's pistol attack fires multiple shots in quick succession before it starts its cooldown. The delay between shots is not affected by [[attack speed]] modifiers, and the cooldown does not start until after it fires all shots. If it fires a shot, but there are no targetable Bloons within range while it still has shots left, it waits until it can fire its next shot and does not start its attack cooldown. If it reaches the end of a [[round]], it instantly reloads its shots. | The Desperado's pistol attack fires multiple shots in quick succession before it starts its cooldown.
