'''Flash Bomb''' is the [[Ninja Monkey (BTD6)|Ninja Monkey]]'s path 3 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. ~~It replaces~~ every 4th shuriken attack with a flash bomb attack. Flash bombs explode on impact, with 40 blast radius, dealing 3 [[damage]], with 30 [[pierce]], and stunning non-[[MOAB-Class Bloon|MOAB-Class Bloons]] for 1.3 seconds. Flash bombs can damage every Bloon type~~. This upgrade also grants +4 [[Stunned damage]] to shurikens as well as giving +2 pierce to shurikens~~. With the 0-1-3 crosspath, the flash bomb gains a 30% chance (32.5% chance with {{BTD6 mk|Diversion Tactics}}) to distract ~~bloons~~. With the 0-2-3 crosspath, the flash bomb additionally decamos bloons.

Flash Bomb gives a notable improvement to the shuriken attack ~~but~~ the ~~ninja~~ still attacks too ~~slow~~ for the flash bomb to be consistent enough even with the top crosspath. As a standalone tower Flash Bomb performs poorly, but can be used in ~~ninja strategies since~~ [[Shinobi Tactics (BTD6)|~~Shinobis~~]] ~~can give enough attack speed~~ for it to be a decent ~~ceramic~~ control and support. Otherwise, it is ~~usually~~ used as a stepping stone to Sticky Bomb.

Flash Bomb gives a notable improvement to the shuriken attack; however, the Ninja still attacks too slowly for the flash bomb to be consistent enough, even with the top crosspath. As a standalone tower Flash Bomb performs poorly, especially in the mid-game due to the bomb often getting pierce-capped, but it can be used in [[Shinobi Tactics (BTD6)|Shinobi]] strategies for it to be a decent Ceramic control and support with enough attack speed and pierce buffs. Otherwise, it is best used simply as a stepping stone to [[Sticky Bomb (BTD6)|Sticky Bomb]].

Generally, ~~top crosspath is~~ preferred because of ~~the~~ buff to the ~~ninja's attack speed and~~ it ~~simply being the better crosspath if building into~~ Sticky Bomb and Master Bomber. ~~Middle crosspath can be usable~~ with ~~Shinobis but~~ the ~~decamo aspect~~ is heavily outclassed.

Generally, crosspaths with path 1 are preferred because of its attack speed buff, in the same way it is preferred for Sticky Bomb and [[Master Bomber (BTD6)|Master Bomber]]. [[Ninja Discipline (BTD6)|Ninja Discipline]]'s attack speed boost is even better than it looks at first glance because it allows the Ninja Monkey to hit Bloons with three shurikens before the stun wears off instead of two, thus taking more advantage of its bonus damage to stunned Bloons. [[Sharp Shurikens (BTD6)|Sharp Shurikens]] is a niche further upgrade that makes it even better at damaging stunned Bloons to help with cleanup. 0-2-3 is heavily outclassed as a camo remover by [[Signal Flare (BTD6)|Signal Flare]] and [[Submerge and Support (BTD6)|Submerge and Support]] and should only be used if no other option is available. Similarly, 0-1-3 is outclassed by other [[blowback]] options such as [[Downdraft (BTD6)|Downdraft]] or [[Druid of the Storm (BTD6)|Druid of the Storm]].
