'''Faster Rangs''' is the [[Boomerang Monkey (BTD6)|Boomerang Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. ~~It increases the~~ Boomerang Monkey's attack ~~speed~~ by ~33.33%, for an overall attack speed increase of ~~~77.78~~% over base Boomerang Monkey. Additionally it increases projectile speed.

'''Faster Rangs''' is the [[Boomerang Monkey (BTD6)|Boomerang Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede" />This upgrade reduces attack cooldown of Boomerang Monkey's main attack by 33.3%, resulting in a 50% attack speed increase, for an overall attack speed increase of 100% over base Boomerang Monkey. Additionally, it increases its projectile speed by 30%. For [[MOAB Press (BTD6)|MOAB Press]] and [[MOAB Domination (BTD6)|MOAB Domination]], their anti-MOAB kylies have 25% reduced attack cooldown (+33.33% attack speed) compared to [[Faster Throwing (BTD6) (Boomerang Monkey)|Faster Throwing]], for a total of 40% attack cooldown (or +66.67% attack speed). {{BTD6|Glaive Lord}}'s orbiting glaives are unaffected by the attack speed increase, although its ricocheting glaives are affected.<section end="lede" />

{{BTD6 last updated|49.2|section=y}}Faster Rangs is not efficient alone, due to its low cost efficiency compared to two 0-0-0 Boomerang Monkeys, thus relegating its use to being a crosspath. When crosspathed with Tier 2 Boomerang Monkeys, it becomes strong against dispersed rounds (such as 26) with 0-2-2, and strong against dense rounds (such as 27) with 2-2-0. Note that the latter is weaker in overall damage compared to 2-0-2, but is more reliable.

For Tier 3's and above, Faster Rangs is the better crosspath for {{BTD6|Kylie Boomerang}}, and {{BTD6|MOAB Domination}}, with both of them appreciating extra attack speed. {{BTD6|MOAB Press}} prefers this crosspath when the map has more than one entrance per round and {{BTD6|M.O.A.R Glaives}} uses it when buffed by {{BTD6|Berserker Brew}}, but {{BTD6|Glaive Ricochet}} does not prefer it under any scenario compared to {{BTD6|Red Hot Rangs}}.
