'''Bloon Area Denial System''' is the [[Dartling Gunner (BTD6)|Dartling Gunner]]'s path 3 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. ~~It changes the~~ Dartling Gunner ~~into~~ a four-barrelled turret, each barrel at different heights (22.56, 16.52, 10.36, and 4.33), and alternating their attacks from top to bottom, effectively granting 4× attack speed (from 1.2s to 0.3s). The increased height allows some barrels to pass over certain obstacles.

Additionally, this Dartling gains the "Target Independent" targeting option. When set to this targeting option, it no longer passively shoots, instead it has a large non-dummy range and independently targets bloons within the range in the order of First, Last, Close, Strong.

If crosspathed with [[Laser Shock (BTD6)|Laser Shock]], the bonus shocked damage and damage-over-time is increased from +1 to +2 (same as [[Buckshot (BTD6)|Buckshot]]).

Bloon Area Denial System is a mid-game carry with good damage, knockback, range, and receptiveness to buffs. Its main role is as a stepping stone into the {{BTD6|Bloon Exclusion Zone}} to finish the game; if not, the BADS is reduced to an expensive Super Ceramic staller by the 90s. Since it has an almost global range and fires down a line, it is very useful in maps with straightaways or limited placements like [[Sanctuary]].

Alchemist buffs work well on BADS, giving it much needed pierce for the mid-game and late-game.

2-0-4 does more damage, gets higher {{BTD6|Acidic Mixture Dip}} uptime, is more accurate, and is the better stepping stone into BEZ and a less difficult saveup into BADS. 0-2-4 handles Ceramics in the late game more effectively by applying knockback more often and has innate [[Camo detection]].
