'''Laser Cannon''' is the [[Dartling Gunner (Battles 2)|Dartling Gunner]]'s path 1 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD Battles 2]]''.

'''Laser Cannon''' is the [[Dartling Gunner (Battles 2)|Dartling Gunner]]'s path 1 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD Battles 2]]''. Instead of darts, it fires lasers that deal 2 {{BTDB2 dt|Plasma}}-type damage (can pop Frozen Bloons and [[Lead Bloon (Battles 2)|Lead Bloon]] but not [[Purple Bloon (Battles 2)|Purple Bloons]]) with 5 pierce, faster projectile speed, and no random offsetting. Additionally, shock duration is increased by 1 second. [[Powerful Darts (Battles 2)|Powerful Darts]] grants +3 pierce (from 5 to 8).

==Strategy==

Laser Cannon provides a boost in single-target DPS and general damage, being more effective at breaking apart stronger Bloons, but has a major weakness to Purples. It is best paired with [[Hydra Rocket Pods (Battles 2)|Hydra Rocket Pods]] to offset its Purple weakness and also deal with weak clumps that Laser Cannon can't do alone, as well as being better against isolated Ceramics and MOABs.

3-2-0 is generally better for the innate camo detection and maximized attack speed, which gives more overall benefit than 3-0-2 even though the latter gives +66% base pierce instead of +50% attack speed.
