Line 11:

'''Essence Of Lych''' is a [[Artifact|Legendary Artifact]] in the ''[[Rogue Legends]]'' DLC for ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'', introduced in {{BTD6 version|54.0}}. It causes all Tier 4+ Monkeys and Level 15+ Heroes to have 20% a chance to summon 5 Zombie Bloons with a 3 unit spacing after their projectiles expire, with a 0.5s cooldown between triggers. Zombie Bloons spawn to the closest track location.

Additionally, upon losing all lives, ~~the player won't get~~ a game over~~. Instead~~, the Artifact automatically restores all lives and provides the player invincibility for 3 seconds. It also summons 3 Zombie BFBs and 1 Zombie ZOMG at the back of all lanes which deal 100 damage to any Bloon they hit. This protection effect can only be used up to 3 times, and after using all its charges, this Artifact will disappear from the player's inventory.

Additionally, upon losing all lives, which would normally give a game over (or, in [[Mini Boss]], the next shield is re-created, if any, and Boss goes immune and jumps forwards), the Artifact automatically restores all lives and provides the player invincibility for 3 seconds. It also summons 3 Zombie BFBs and 1 Zombie ZOMG at the back of all lanes which deal 100 damage to any Bloon they hit. This protection effect can only be used up to 3 times, and after using all its charges, this Artifact will disappear from the player's inventory.

Like all Boss Artifacts, this has a cost of 18 Artifact Power, so players cannot equip it as an Starting Artifact unless they have bought all the levels of the Starting Artifact Power upgrade from the Rogue XP Shop.

==Tips==

~~{{Strategy needed|tips=y}}~~

*The Zombie Bloon portion of the Artifact is relatively weak but it does hit Camo and innately damages all Bloon types, so it's not the worst Boss Artifact without the game over protection. Still, it is one of the weaker Boss Artifacts in the game.

*Use all except the last charge and then sell off Essence of Lych, ~~and then it'll~~ still ~~give~~ value.

*Use all except the last charge and then sell off Essence of Lych at the Merchant, taking advantage of the game over protection while still retaining value.

*In late-stage Endless CHIMPS campaigns, just sell Essence of Lych just before battling Final Boss Lych to potentially restore all charges of this Artifact.

*It is not recommended to play [[Mini Boss]] while holding Essence of Lych; when the player wants to intentionally leak just to quit the Boss as soon as possible for purposes of minimizing lag/crash issues, losing all lives will trigger the game over passive, wasting more time.
