The '''Dart Monkey''' is a [[Primary]] [[tower]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It is unlocked at the start of the game.
The '''Dart Monkey''' is a [[Primary]] [[tower]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It [[attack]]s by throwing darts that each pop up to 2 [[Bloon|Bloons]] (3 with {{BTD6 mk|Extra Dart Pops}}). Its darts cannot damage [[Lead Bloon (BTD6)|Lead Bloon]]s or [[frozen]] Bloons. It can be upgraded to hurl bouncing spiked balls from catapults, throw more darts per shot and transform into miniature [[Super Monkey (BTD6)|Super Monkeys]], or operate a crossbow that shoots high-damage bolts.

The Dart Monkey has the lowest cost of all Monkeys in [[Bloons TD 6]]. Its cost-efficient nature and inexpensive upgrades allow it to function very well in the early-game.  


* Dart Monkeys are extremely useful for defending against the opening rounds of [[CHIMPS]], even on [[Advanced]] and [[Expert]] maps. Common starts include three Dart Monkeys, Dart + [[Monkey Sub (BTD6)|Sub]], Dart + [[Sniper Monkey (BTD6)|Sniper]], and Dart + [[Engineer Monkey (BTD6)|Engineer]].

* Path 1 of the Dart Monkey converts the tower into a machine that fires spiked balls with high [[Pierce]]. They are strong against Ceramics and grouped Bloons. The balls will also bounce off [[Line of Sight]] obstacles, making the tower most effective when placed near these obstacles.

* Path 2 focuses on increasing the number of darts thrown, eventually unlocking a powerful ability that temporarily turns many nearby Dart Monkeys into [[Super Monkey (BTD6)|Super Monkeys]].

* Path 3 grants the Dart Monkey a crossbow, allowing it to pop multiple layers of Bloon each hit. Its good damage, range, and [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo]] detection enables it to function effectively in the early- and mid-game,  especially when placed near straight lines.

* The [[Apex Plasma Master]] is the least expensive of all [[Paragon|Paragons]], making it a viable option against Tier 3 and 4 [[Boss Bloon|Bosses]]. With the second Crossbow Master from the [[Master Double Cross]] Monkey Knowledge, one can build a Degree 20+ Paragon even with little additional investment. Like the Dart Monkey's top path, it is most effective when there are obstacles for its projectiles to bounce off of.
