'''Faster Engineering''' is the [[Engineer Monkey (BTD6)|Engineer Monkey]]'s path 1 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It reduces the [[cooldown]] of the Engineer Monkey's [[Sentry Gun (BTD6)|sentry]]-spawner [[attack]] from 10 seconds to 6 seconds, increasing its production rate by ~~~66.7~~%~~. Additionally, it increases the [[MOAB damage]] of the Engineer Monkey's base attack by 1, which is lost if [[crosspath]]ed with the second path or upgraded to tier 3, possibly due to a bug~~. If [[crosspath]]ed with [[Cleansing Foam (BTD6)|Cleansing Foam]], it reduces the foam gun cooldown by 40%. If crosspathed with [[Bloon Trap (BTD6)|Bloon Trap]], it reduces the time it takes for the Engineer Monkey to stockpile a new trap by 40%, ~~but does not change~~ the 2.~~8-second minimum delay between deploys~~.

'''Faster Engineering''' is the [[Engineer Monkey (BTD6)|Engineer Monkey]]'s path 1 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It reduces the [[cooldown]] of the Engineer Monkey's [[Sentry Gun (BTD6)|sentry]]-spawner [[attack]] from 10 seconds to 5 seconds, increasing its production rate by 100%. If [[crosspath]]ed with [[Cleansing Foam (BTD6)|Cleansing Foam]], it reduces the foam gun cooldown by 50%. If crosspathed with [[Bloon Trap (BTD6)|Bloon Trap]], it reduces the time it takes for the Engineer Monkey to stockpile a new trap by 50%, and reduces the replacement delay by 0.7s from the base amount.

==Strategy==

Faster Engineering is an effective crosspath for improving the rate of creating sentries, as well as foam or traps. It is more cost-efficient at sentry spawning than its predecessor, allowing up to five sentries (six with {{BTD6 mk|Vigilant Sentries}}) at a time per Engineer instead of two or three. As a crosspath for foams and traps, it's the preferred crosspath if utility is less required.

For [[Cleansing Foam (BTD6)|Cleansing Foam]], the rate boost does better than extra pierce when handling Regrows, in addition to the stronger sentries. For [[Bloon Trap (BTD6)|Bloon Trap]] and [[XXXL Trap (BTD6)|XXXL Trap]], both benefit from faster trap refreshment rates, but suffer from a lack of trap repositioning and manual collection, and their created sentries may steal possible pops unless the Engineers are placed behind an obstacle.
