'''Elite Defender''' is the [[Sniper Monkey (Battles 2)|Sniper Monkey]]'s path 3 tier 5 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD Battles 2]]''.

'''Elite Defender''' is the [[Sniper Monkey (Battles 2)|Sniper Monkey]]'s path 3 tier 5 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD Battles 2]]''. It reduces Sniper Monkey's [[Attack speed|attack cooldown]] by 50%, effectively doubling its attack speed. Additionally, it gains more attack speed equal to the percentage of the track that the furthest Bloon is at, up to +100%.

Elite Defender also has a [[Passive Ability|passive ability]] that grants 4× faster attack speed for 7 seconds just before a Bloon leaks to the exit or after losing lives. This ability has a cooldown of 10 seconds. At its maximum attack speed, Elite Defender attacks 16× faster than [[Full Auto Rifle (Battles 2)|Full Auto Rifle]].

Its base [[attack cooldown]] is 0.0592 seconds. However, with enough speed buffs, it is capable of reaching the speed cap for the game.

Just like Full Auto Rifle, Elite Defender's MOAB-class damage increases to +3 with [[Full Metal Jacket (Battles 2)|Full Metal Jacket]] and +4 with [[Large Calibre (Battles 2)|Large Calibre]].

==Costs and sell values==

==Strategy==

Elite Defender is best used in [[Smudge Catt Ezili (Battles 2)|Smudge Catt Ezili]] strategies, as her totem ability has a faster cooldown than normal [[Ezili (Battles 2)|Ezili]] and triggers the passive reliably. Elite Defender can be used to defend against round 19-25 types of rushes against anything except Tight rushes.

0-2-5 is usually the preferred crosspath, and although 2-0-5 improves its single-target damage substantially it isn't as efficient as its cleanup from [[Shrapnel Shot (Battles 2)|Shrapnel Shot]].
