'''Trident Swiftness''' is the [[Mermonkey (BTD6)|Mermonkey]]'s path 1 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. Trident cooldown reduces by 25% (+33.33% attack speed), with a total of exactly 40% (+66.67% attack speed) compared to the base tower, in addition to +50% projectile speed from 200 to 300, but lifespan from 1s to 0.6667s, which retains equal distance.

Contrary to its description, the bonuses also apply to crosspathed attacks, not just tridents.

* [[Alluring Melody]] and above trance cooldown decreased by 10% (+11.11% attack speed), totalling 21% (+23.46% attack speed)

* [[Arctic Knight]]'s Ice Jet gains no attack speed bonus ~~but~~ gains +50% projectile speed ~~but 33.33% lifespan to match~~ distance ~~of the uncrosspathed counterpart~~.

* [[Arctic Knight]]'s Ice Jet gains no attack speed bonus and gains +50% projectile speed without modifying its projectile lifespan, therefore having +50% projectile distance as well.

Trident Swiftness offers the maximum attack speed benefit for the Mermonkey, in addition to extra projectile speed to more reliably catch bloons. The attack speed is usually the main reason to fully crosspath along the top path, especially for higher-tier Mermonkeys. It's not exceptional on lower-tier Mermonkeys ~~though~~.

The attack speed is usually the main reason to fully crosspath along the top path, especially for higher-tier Mermonkeys. It's not exceptional on lower-tier Mermonkeys, but still useful for 2-1-0 [[Sharper Prongs]] in [[Race (BTD6)|Race]] conditions.
