'''Enhanced Freeze''' is the [[Ice Monkey (BTD6)|Ice Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 1 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''.

'''Enhanced Freeze''' is the [[Ice Monkey (BTD6)|Ice Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 1 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede" />This upgrade increases the freeze duration from 1.5 seconds to 1.75 seconds and also increases attack speed by 33% (0.75x attack cooldown). Without additional upgrades that increase attack speed, the Ice Monkey attacks every 1.8s.

Duration of all other effects, except the debuff durations from [[Embrittlement (BTD6)|Embrittlement]] and [[Super Brittle (BTD6)|Super Brittle]], increase by the same amount as the freeze duration. Other attack speed benefits from other paths include:

*[[Super Brittle (BTD6)|Super Brittle]]: 1.2s → 0.9s

*[[Cryo Cannon (BTD6)|Cryo Cannon]]: 1.2s → 0.9s

*[[Icicles (BTD6)|Icicles]] and [[Icicle Impale (BTD6)|Icicle Impale]]: 0.75s → 0.5625s

Enhanced Freeze is a useful crosspath for maximizing consistency and DPS, combined with its slowdown of Bloon groups. Without anything to increase freeze duration, it can set Bloons consistently near the Ice Monkey, with only 0.05 seconds between each freeze (1.8 seconds cooldown, versus 1.75 seconds of freezing). It's helpful for starting [[Race Event]]s when {{BTD6|Mortar Monkey}} is banned, having consistent attack speed with reasonable pierce. Its increased attack speed also allows for faster Ice Fragments with [[Silas (BTD6)|Silas]] strategies.

With 1-1-0, it can assist stalling of {{BTD6|Super Ceramic Bloon}}s by consistently applying Permafrost. Versus {{BTD6|Golden Bloon}}s, Enhanced Freeze can be used for Round 21-30 and 31-40, using 0-1-2 and 2-1-0, respectively. For Silas strategies, the 0-1-0 is enough if only wanting to maximize Ice Fragments. When bought as a crosspath, it is recommended for {{BTD6|Ice Shards}} regardless of the situation. Enhanced Freeze is recommended {{BTD6|Embrittlement}} and {{BTD6|Super Brittle}} outside of [[Freeplay]] and Tier 4/5 [[Boss Bloon]]s, {{BTD6|Cryo Cannon}} and {{BTD6|Icicles}} when innate [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo]] detection is not needed, and {{BTD6|Icicle Impale}} when both {{BTD6|Acidic Mixture Dip}} and {{BTD6|Radar Scanner}} can be obtained. In the cases of Ice Shards, Cryo Cannon, Icicles, and Icicle Impale, further crosspathing with {{BTD6|Deep Freeze}} is strongly recommended.
