'''Even More Tacks''' is the [[Tack Shooter (BTD6)|Tack Shooter]]'s path 3 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases the number of tacks fired per shot from 10 to 12.

'''Even More Tacks''' is the [[Tack Shooter (BTD6)|Tack Shooter]]'s path 3 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede" />This upgrade increases the number of tacks fired per shot from 10 to 12.

[[Crosspath]]ing ~~with~~ [[Ring of Fire (BTD6)|Ring of Fire]] and [[Inferno Ring (BTD6)|Inferno Ring]] increases its [[damage]] by 1 on top of the +1 damage from [[More Tacks (BTD6)|More Tacks]], and Inferno Ring's fireball attack additionally deals 300 more damage to the target. ~~Crosspathing with~~ [[Blade Maelstrom (BTD6)|Blade Maelstrom]] ~~increases the duration of its~~ ability by 0.5 seconds ~~on top~~ of ~~the 0.5 seconds from More Tacks~~, and [[Super Maelstrom (BTD6)|Super Maelstrom]]~~'s duration~~ is increased by 1.5 seconds ~~on top~~ of ~~the 1.5~~ seconds ~~from More Tacks~~.

[[Crosspath]]ing further improves the effects of other Tack Shooter upgrades:

*[[Ring of Fire (BTD6)|Ring of Fire]] and [[Inferno Ring (BTD6)|Inferno Ring]] increases its [[damage]] by 1 on top of the +1 damage from [[More Tacks (BTD6)|More Tacks]], and Inferno Ring's fireball attack additionally deals 300 more damage to the target.

*[[Blade Maelstrom (BTD6)|Blade Maelstrom]] ability lasts a further 0.5 seconds for a total of 1 extra second, and the duration of [[Super Maelstrom (BTD6)|Super Maelstrom]] ability is increased by 1.5 seconds for a total of 3 extra seconds.<section end="lede" />

Even More Tacks is ~~not recommended for standalone use due to being~~ less efficient than ~~an extra~~ 0-0-0 Tack Shooter, and is ~~thus~~ only recommended for crosspathing purposes. It is recommended for Inferno Ring when pierce buffs such as {{B|Berserker Brew~~|BTD6~~}} and {{B|Primary Training~~|BTD6~~}} can be obtained, Ring of Fire when its base range is sufficient~~, and~~ Blade ~~Maelstrom and Super Maelstrom~~ if ~~using them~~ for ~~the mid-game~~ (~~where reliability is key~~). Even ~~More Tacks~~ is the ~~generally suboptimal crosspath for {{B|Hot Shots|~~BTD6~~}} and {{B~~|Blade ~~Shooter~~|~~BTD6}}~~.

Even More Tacks is less cost-efficient at producing tacks than a 0-0-0 Tack Shooter, and thus is only recommended for crosspathing purposes. Like [[More Tacks (BTD6)|More Tacks]], Even More Tacks improves DPS, though losing the benefits of other crosspaths may not always be worth losing. Most of the time, fully crosspathing to Even More Tacks is recommended over stopping at the T1.

{{BTD6|Hot Shots}} prefers this crosspath only when focusing on single-target DPS but generally not as good as the substantial pierce bonus from [[Super Range Tacks (BTD6)|Super Range Tacks]]. On the other hand, Even More Tacks is recommended for [[Inferno Ring (BTD6)|Inferno Ring]] when pierce buffs such as {{BTD6|Berserker Brew}} and {{BTD6|Primary Training}} can be obtained, and for [[Ring of Fire (BTD6)|Ring of Fire]] when its base range and pierce are sufficient.

{{BTD6|Blade Shooter}} may benefit from this crosspath increasing its DPS if accounting for lower consistency than with [[Even Faster Shooting (BTD6)|Even Faster Shooting]], but the biggest benefit for path 2 is the improved duration of [[Blade Maelstrom (BTD6)|Blade Maelstrom]] and [[Super Maelstrom (BTD6)|Super Maelstrom]] abilities to increase their reliability.
