'''Trident Swiftness''' is the [[Mermonkey (BTD6)|Mermonkey]]'s path 1 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede"/>It reduces the cooldown of the trident attack by a further 25% (effectively +33.33% [[attack speed]]), for a total of ~~exactly~~ 40% reduced cooldown (effectively +66.67% attack speed) relative to the base tower due to it stacking ~~with~~ [[Trident Efficiency]]. It also increases the projectile speed of its tridents by 50%, but reduces their lifespan, so the maximum distance they can travel before expiring is effectively ~~unchanged~~.

'''Trident Swiftness''' is the [[Mermonkey (BTD6)|Mermonkey]]'s path 1 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede"/>This upgrade reduces the cooldown of the trident attack by a further 25% (effectively +33.33% [[attack speed]]), for a total of 40% reduced cooldown (effectively +66.67% attack speed) relative to the base tower, due to it stacking on top of [[Trident Efficiency]]. It also increases the projectile speed of its tridents by 50%, but reduces their lifespan, so the maximum distance they can travel before expiring is effectively the same. Contrary to its description, this upgrade affects other attacks when [[crosspath]]ed, not just the trident attack:

*With [[Alluring Melody]] and above, it reduces the delay of the trance attack pulling in Bloons while active by 10%, for a total of -21% in combination with Trident Efficiency (effectively +23.46% pull rate overall).

Contrary to its description, this upgrade affects other attacks when [[crosspath]]ed, not just the trident attack:

*With [[Riptide Champion]] and above, it increases the rate that its projectiles gain size and damage at by 50%, to compensate for their reduced lifespan. For [[Popseidon]], it only affects the side tridents in this way.

*With [[Alluring Melody]] and above, it reduces the delay of the trance attack pulling in Bloons while active by 10%, for a total of -21% in ~~conjunction~~ with Trident Efficiency (effectively +23.46% pull rate overall).

*With [[Riptide Champion]] and above, it increases the rate that its projectiles gain size and damage at by 50%, to compensate for their reduced lifespan.

*With [[Arctic Knight]] and above, it also increases the projectile speed of Ice Jet's ice balls by 50%, without reducing their lifespan.<section end="lede"/>
