'''Super Range Tacks''' is the [[Tack Shooter (BTD6)|Tack Shooter]]'s path 2 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. | '''Super Range Tacks''' is the [[Tack Shooter (BTD6)|Tack Shooter]]'s path 2 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede" />This upgrade increases the Tack Shooter's [[range]] by another +3.91 [[Unit|units]], or +17% of its base range (for a total of +34% range), as well as increasing its [[Projectile Lifespan|projectile lifespan]] by ~12.44%, and increasing [[pierce]] by +3 (4 without additional upgrades). | ||
Crosspaths further increase with certain upgrades: | |||
*{{BTD6|Ring of Fire}} or {{BTD6|Inferno Ring}}: the pierce increase is +15 | |||
*{{BTD6|The Tack Zone}}: the pierce increase is +8 and the range bonus is +20 units instead.<section end="lede" /> | |||

The large pierce boost that Super Range Tacks grants makes it a very strong tower to start with on [[Race Event]]s; with crosspaths (1-2-0 being the most cost-efficient of the lower-tiers), it can take out the first dozen rounds simultaneously when placed on a good bend. Elsewhere, Super Range Tacks is a strong early-game tower on maps with very good bends (which maximize its large pierce), but falls short on maps without them, where it is only recommended as a crosspath. | |||
Super Range Tacks is the optimal crosspath for {{BTD6|Hot Shots}}, which only has 1 pierce and benefits greatly from the +3 pierce that Super Range Tacks provides. Super Range Tacks is preferred for {{BTD6|Ring of Fire}} in Race Events where extra pierce is needed and for {{BTD6|Inferno Ring}} when no pierce buffs can be obtained, but is suboptimal for Tier 3+ bottom-path Tack Shooters outside of Race Events. | |||
The maximized crosspathed range provided by Super Range Tacks allows greater coverage on bends, though the main incentive is usually the pierce bonus. On some maps, such as [[Spillway]], this Tack can reach areas that other Tacks cannot; in Spillway, it can attack if placed at the bottom of the map's barrel. | |||
