'''Sprockets''' is the [[Engineer Monkey (BTD6)|Engineer Monkey]]'s path 1 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It halves the [[attack cooldown|cooldown]] of the Engineer Monkey's and [[Sentry Gun (BTD6)|sentries]]' [[attack]]s, effectively doubling their [[attack speed]]. It does not improve the speed at which the Engineer deploys its sentries. Additionally, sentries with Sprockets gain the ability to [[stun]] [[Bloon]]s when [[crosspath]]ed with [[Pin (BTD6)|Pin]].

For its cost, Sprockets offer much more DPS from both the Engineer and its sentries. Also, as its sentries are able to pin bloons with 3-0-2, it can stun many more bloons over a wider area.
{{BTD6 last updated|52.2|section=y}}
Sprockets is an early game tower that has a steeper cost than [[Double Gun (BTD6)|Double Gun]] but trades it for higher DPS in its sentries. Like the rest of the top path, it's weak before placing all its sentries, and can do bad sentry placements due to RNG.


For crosspaths, 3-2-0 is mainly for increased single-target damage to MOAB-class, and 3-0-2 is designed better for bloon control.
3-2-0 is better for building into [[Sentry Champion (BTD6)|Sentry Champion]], having better single-target damage. 3-0-2 is better for the early game, stopping groups of Bloons, and more effective at the role than 2-0-3 due to sentry pins.
