| Tower | Monkey Sub — Path 2 — Tier 1 | |
|---|---|---|
| XP cost | 130 | |
| Cash cost | $380 — Easy $450 — Medium $485 — Hard $540 — Impoppable | |
Barbed Darts is the Monkey Sub's path 2 tier 1 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It increases the pierce of the Monkey Sub's projectiles from 2 to 5. Crosspathing with Airburst Darts causes it to increase the pierce of the mini-darts by 3 instead of the main dart. Crosspathing with Submerge and Support and above increases the pierce of its decamo pulses by 50, and for Bloontonium Reactor and above, it also increases the pierce of the damaging element of the pulses by 50.

Strategy
[edit | edit source]Barbed Darts serves as a relatively strong early-game tower when purchased with Twin Guns. However, it is less cost-efficient compared to one Airburst Darts, which is far more powerful and fares better when purchased with Advanced Intel. As a crosspath, Barbed Darts is useful for Bloontonium Reactor in Race Events and in niche scenarios where innate Lead-popping from Heat-tipped Darts is essential, but it is not recommended as a crosspath otherwise. Barbed Darts is serviceable on all T3+ bottom path Subs, but they tend to prefer Advanced Intel due to it synergizing better with external buffs and the longer range targeting Bloons sooner.

Dart: pierce increased by 1
- Note: Does not affect Airburst Darts and above
- Description changed
Before Sub's darts can pop 4 Bloons each. After Sub's darts can pop an additional 3 Bloons.
- 4-1-0, 5-1-0
Barbed Darts now increases the pierce of the damage pulse by 20%
- 4-1-0
Damage pulse: base pierce reduced ― 84 → 70
- Note: Pierce bonus increased from +14 to +20
| “ | The logic on a Lead crosspath not being required to give Lead popping to an attack based on something weak against Lead has never sat right, so we’re finally sorting that out and making sub a little angrier. — Update notes |
” |
| “ | Similar types of camo reveal like Shimmer/Signal Flare/Embrittlement are all pierce limited, but the Submerge sub has practically infinite pierce while also being extremely cheap with a very fast rate and a T4 that is far better at camo removal than those other towers can reach. Giving this upgrade a more reasonable pierce value brings these more in line and allows for the pierce crosspath to have some potential meaning. — Update notes |
” |
- 3-1-0, 4-1-0
Camo Pulse: Pierce reduced ― infinite → 120
- 5-1-0
Camo Pulse: Pierce reduced ― infinite → 1020
| “ | We have come back a number of times to add, fix & balance sub crosspathing, over years of learning though it currently feels messy and we’d like simplification. Heat-Tipped Darts doesn’t increase base sub pierce, so it feels silly to require it for maximum pierce on Submerged subs. Likewise Airburst shouldn’t be required to maximize the rate of submerged subs, instead we’d rather give people an easier way to work with the Airburst attack if they desire to upgrade to it so ‘Submerge’ is moving to a new Tower Special rather than target priority. — Update notes |

- 3-1-0, 4-1-0, 5-1-0
Decamo pulse: Pierce increased ― 120 → 150
