'''Bouncing Bullet''' is the [[Sniper Monkey (BTD6)|Sniper Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. ~~It grants~~ Sniper Monkey's bullets ~~the ability~~ to bounce up to 2 times, hitting up to 3 Bloons per shot. Each bullet impact retains the [[Shrapnel Shot (BTD6)|Shrapnel Shot]] attack ~~which sprays~~ 5 ~~projectiles~~ in a cone formation ~~which hit~~ 2 ~~Bloons each~~. Bullets can bounce to other Bloons within a 40 [[unit]] radius of a target.

'''Bouncing Bullet''' is the [[Sniper Monkey (BTD6)|Sniper Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede" />This upgrade allows the Sniper Monkey's bullets to bounce up to 2 times, hitting up to 3 Bloons per shot. Each bullet impact retains the [[Shrapnel Shot (BTD6)|Shrapnel Shot]] attack, triggering 5 shrapnel in a cone formation parallel to the direction of the bullet, with 2 pierce per shrapnel. Bullets can bounce to other Bloons within a 40 [[unit]] radius of a target, always bounces towards the closest targets, and the bounces can ignore obstacles.

== Crosspathing ==

[[Crosspathing]] with [[Full Metal Jacket (BTD6)|Full Metal Jacket]] increases shrapnel damage to 2 and grants {{BTD6 dt|Normal}}-type damage to its shrapnel. With [[Large Calibre (BTD6)|Large Calibre]], the bounce distance increases from 40 to 80 units and shrapnel damage increases to 3. <section end="lede" />

~~With~~ [[Full Metal Jacket (BTD6)|Full Metal Jacket]]

* Bullet gains +2 ~~damage~~

* Can now pop Lead and ~~Frozen Bloons~~

* Shrapnel now deals 2 damage

With [[Large Calibre (BTD6)|Large Calibre]]

* Bullet gains +3 additional damage (total of 7)

* Shrapnel now deals 3 damage

* Shrapnel now bounces further (40 units to ~~50 units)~~

~~With [[Even Faster Firing (BTD6)|Even Faster Firing]]~~

* Attacks faster

==Strategy==

Bouncing Bullets serves as a decent mid-game, being a solid cleanup option on maps without simultaneous lanes, but poor single-target. Unlike [[Shrapnel Shot (BTD6)|Shrapnel Shot]], positioning matters less, because the shrapnel from bounces will travel in a consistent direction. Going late-game, it has fairly good cleanup when spammed alongside {{BTD6|Elite Sniper}} and {{BTD6|Elite Defender}} in a {{BTD6|Geraldo}} strategy.

0-3-2 is preferred when desiring consistency and better synergy with {{BTD6|Berserker Brew}}. 2-3-0 is better self-sufficiently, and is less disadvantaged on maps with simultaneous lanes.

==Trivia==

*Its portrait resembles that of the [[Semi Automatic Rifle (BTD5)|BTD5 Semi Automatic Rifle]], both with similar poses and the Night Vision Goggles.

*Its upgrade icon was not updated when its number of bounces was nerfed, still showing the bullet bouncing off 3 Bloons.
