Sapper: Difference between revisions

→Strategy: I think it's worth noting that health ramping will slowly drain your ability to do this achievement and at a certain point it's better to restart. I can't tell if 200 or 300 is optimal though. It will need some testing.

Sapper is one of the most time-consuming achievements to obtain. As such, it should not be focused on until after unlocking features such as [[Paragon|Paragons]] and most [[Monkey Knowledge (BTD6)|Monkey Knowledge]]. It would take over a thousand games up to round 100 to achieve the necessary pops.

Fortified MOAB-Class Bloons appear in far greater quantities past round 100 than before it, making [[Freeplay|Freeplay mode]] highly recommended for this achievement. To obtain this achievement one should repeatedly go far into Freeplay (ideally round 200 and above) without the use of insta-killing towers such as [[Bloon Master Alchemist (BTD6)|Bloon Master Alchemist]], [[XXXL Trap (BTD6)|XXXL Trap]], [[Navarch of the Seas]], [[Psi (BTD6)|Psi]], or [[Ezili (BTD6)|Ezili's]] MOAB Hex ability. One should also avoid use of Fortify-removing towers such as [[Shattering Shells (BTD6)|Shattering Shells]].

To obtain this achievement one should repeatedly go far into Freeplay (ideally up to round 300, as health ramping will reduce the amount of MOAB-Class popped compared to just restarting) without the use of insta-killing towers such as [[Bloon Master Alchemist (BTD6)|Bloon Master Alchemist]], [[XXXL Trap (BTD6)|XXXL Trap]], [[Navarch of the Seas]], [[Psi (BTD6)|Psi]], or [[Ezili (BTD6)|Ezili]]'s MOAB Hex ability. One should also avoid use of Fortify-removing towers such as [[Shattering Shells (BTD6)|Shattering Shells]] and blimp layer-skipping towers such as [[First Strike Capability (BTD6)|First Strike Capability]] or [[Giganotosaurus]].


It is recommended to play on standard [[Easy]] mode on the easiest [[Beginner]] maps such as [[Logs]], [[Resort]], or [[Cubism]]. [[Alternate Bloons Rounds]] is not recommended; although it contains more Fortified Bloons during rounds 1-140, the increased prices and Bloon speed of Hard difficulty make it harder to reach very high rounds where most Fortified Bloons appear.

For those without the in-game resources or the hardware for late Freeplay runs, a possible alternative involves repeatedly fighting Elite [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]]. The Boss spawns many Fortified and MOAB-class Bloons, even spawning multiple fortified [[BAD (BTD6)|BADs]] upon reaching a skull at Tier 5. Beating all five tiers will result in tens of thousands of pops being added to this achievement's progress.
 
For more guidance, consult the [[Strategy:Freeplay (BTD6)]] and [[Strategy:Boss Bloon Event]] articles, the latter will help with farming setups to afford the necessary defenses for higher rounds.
