Artillery Battery is a solid mid-game tower, with the blasts easily wiping out Bloons, dealing decent blimp damage and wiping out all bloons with Bombardment active. It retains power into the late-game, being a good cleanup tower against Ceramics and wiping out large clumps of low-tier blimps with Bombardment. It is especially optimal on maps with good loops, such as [[Moon Landing (BTD6)|Moon Landing]] and [[Dark Path]], and can save up for a large variety of late-game towers, including its powerful Tier 5, [[Pop and Awe (BTD6)|Pop and Awe]]. Target it on the densest or most dangerous clump of Bloons or blimps for the best effect. [[Striker Jones (BTD6)|Striker Jones]] is the optimal hero thanks to his various buffs to Mortars, in addition to Concussive Shell generating bonus stun damage. | |||
The 2-4-0 crosspath is optimal in almost all cases, due to the greater pierce, increased blast radius, and increased damage. 0-4-2's burn is only better than 2-4-0's general damage on Race Events and CT Time Attack, and only if it avoids hitting non-blimp Bloons more than once, especially given its lesser pierce. | |||

Strategy
[edit | edit source]Artillery Battery is a solid mid-game tower, with the blasts easily wiping out Bloons, dealing decent blimp damage and wiping out all bloons with Bombardment active. It retains power into the late-game, being a good cleanup tower against Ceramics and wiping out large clumps of low-tier blimps with Bombardment. It is especially optimal on maps with good loops, such as Moon Landing and Dark Path, and can save up for a large variety of late-game towers, including its powerful Tier 5, Pop and Awe. Target it on the densest or most dangerous clump of Bloons or blimps for the best effect. Striker Jones is the optimal hero thanks to his various buffs to Mortars, in addition to Concussive Shell generating bonus stun damage.
The 2-4-0 crosspath is optimal in almost all cases, due to the greater pierce, increased blast radius, and increased damage. 0-4-2's burn is only better than 2-4-0's general damage on Race Events and CT Time Attack, and only if it avoids hitting non-blimp Bloons more than once, especially given its lesser pierce.
