Crosspathing with [[Ring of Fire (BTD6)|Ring of Fire]] and [[Inferno Ring (BTD6)|Inferno Ring]] increases its main attack's [[damage]] by 1.  
Crosspathing with upgrades improves the Tack Shooter's other attacks:
 
* [[Ring of Fire (BTD6)|Ring of Fire]] and [[Inferno Ring (BTD6)|Inferno Ring]] increases its main attack's [[damage]] by 1.  
Crosspathing with [[Blade Maelstrom (BTD6)|Blade Maelstrom]] increases the duration of its ability by 0.5 seconds, and [[Super Maelstrom (BTD6)|Super Maelstrom]]'s duration is increased by 1.5. Additionally, the ability spin direction is reversed (from clockwise to counter-clockwise).

==Strategy==
The extra tacks granted by More Tacks is not worth the price when upgrading from a 0-0-0 Tack Shooter, thus More Tacks is only recommended as a crosspath, in which case purchasing the subsequent upgrade, {{B|Even More Tacks|BTD6}}, is recommended in nearly all cases. If multiple Tacks are inside a [[Primary Mentoring (BTD6)|Primary Mentoring]] Village, buying 1-0-1 brings extra single-target damage for each base Tack, if desperate for budgeting with Mentoring.

The extra tacks granted by More Tacks is overpriced on a 0-0-0 Tack Shooter, thus More Tacks is only recommended as a crosspath, in which case purchasing the subsequent upgrade, {{BTD6|Even More Tacks}}, is recommended in nearly all cases. In edge cases where a specific budget doesn't allow for Even More Tacks, More Tacks is still beneficial as a cheap bonus granted for free with [[Primary Mentoring (BTD6)|Primary Mentoring]], giving higher DPS to the Tack Shooter. Altered spin direction for [[Blade Maelstrom (BTD6)|Blade Maelstrom]] and [[Super Maelstrom (BTD6)|Super Maelstrom]] is niche and is mainly useful when spinning against the grain, but the extra duration is always helpful to sustain the ability instead of a bigger burst.
More Tacks is optimal for Inferno Ring when pierce buffs such as {{B|Berserker Brew|BTD6}} and {{B|Primary Training|BTD6}} are available, Ring of Fire when range is not an issue, and Blade Maelstrom and Super Maelstrom when reliability instead of burst damage is required for the mid-game. More Tacks is generally not recommended as a crosspath for {{B|Hot Shots|BTD6}} and {{B|Blade Shooter|BTD6}}.

==Trivia==
*Previously, on {{BTD6 version|20.0}}, More Tacks had no crosspath benefit to {{BTD6|Ring of Fire}} and above.
**Currently, the only upgrade that has no crosspath benefit is {{BTD6|Long Life Bananas}} for {{BTD6|Marketplace}} and above.
