'''The Big One''' is the [[Mortar Monkey (BTD6)|Mortar Monkey]]'s path 1 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. ~~It increases~~ the ~~main~~ explosion'~~s radius~~ by 20 and damage from 3 to ~~8, shockwave~~'~~s radius~~ by 30 and damage from 1 to 2 (with another +2 damage to [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramics]]~~, and stun explosion~~'~~s radius~~ by 10 and stun duration from 0.5 seconds to 0.75 seconds~~. The shockwave gains the ability to pop all Bloon types, but the other explosions remain unable to pop [[Black Bloon (BTD6)|Black Bloons]]. The total pierce of each shot is increased from 45 to 85~~.

'''The Big One''' is the [[Mortar Monkey (BTD6)|Mortar Monkey]]'s path 1 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede" />This upgrade creates much larger explosions that do more damage, pop more Bloons, and stun longer. The outer shockwave's damage type is changed to {{BTD6 dt|Normal}}, popping all visible Bloon types, but the other explosions remain unable to pop [[Black Bloon (BTD6)|Black Bloons]].

*'''Main explosion''': Radius is increased by 20 (38 to 58), pierce increased from 45 to 85, and damage from 3 to 10.

*'''Shockwave''': Radius is increased by 30 (57 to 87), pierce increased from 45 to 85, and damage from 1 to 2 (with another +2 damage to [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramics]]). Can also target visible {{BTD6|DDT}}s.

*'''Stun blast''': Radius increased by 10 (19 to 29), pierce increased from 45 to 85, and stun duration increased from 0.5 seconds to 0.75 seconds.

With the 4-0-2 crosspath, the [[Burny Stuff (BTD6)|Burny Stuff]] burn damage is increased from 2 to 7.

With the 4-0-2 crosspath, the [[Burny Stuff (BTD6)|Burny Stuff]] burn damage is increased from 2 to 12. It still burns every 0.625 seconds (0.375 seconds with {{BTD6 mk|Extra Burny Stuff}}) and lasts up to 3.85 seconds.<section end="lede" />

The Big One is a decent mid-game tower, being able to take down dense Ceramic clumps and do mild MOAB damage at a relatively high price. It does not have sufficient Black-popping, so [[Striker Jones (BTD6)|Striker Jones]] is strongly recommended for it. [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)#Super Ceramic Bloons|Super Ceramics]], which start appearing on Round 81, greatly reduce the viability of The Big One from this round onwards, though the improved high-pierce stun can still be somewhat useful. It's a decent stepping stone to [[The Biggest One (BTD6)|The Biggest One]], provided MOAB-class Bloons are handled so it can be afforded by the mid-80s.

4-2-0 is more reliable and is recommended on shorter or simultaneously multi-lane maps. In contrast, 4-0-2 does more raw damage, can take down all except round 81+ Fortified Super Ceramics in one hit with Burny Stuff, and is recommended in other cases.

BTD6 400-MortarMonkeyInsta.png|[[Insta Monkey]] icon

</gallery>

==Trivia==

*Its portrait does not include the radioactive symbol on its in-game model and Insta Monkey sprite.

*Its upgrade icon's file name has a typo: <code>TheBIgOne</code>. The same capitalization error occurs for [[The Biggest One (BTD6)|The Biggest One]].

*Its upgrade icon depicts a [[Fortified Bloon (BTD6)|Fortified]] {{BTD6|Zebra Bloon}} being popped. In previous versions, The Big One lacked the damage to instantly pop a Zebra and were able to pop Black properties. However, the icon is still erroneous as Zebras cannot be Fortified in ''BTD6''.
