Duration of all, except the debuff durations from [[Embrittlement (BTD6)|Embrittlement]] and [[Super Brittle (BTD6)|Super Brittle]], increase by the same amount as the freeze duration. Other attack speed benefits from other paths include:

*[[Super Brittle (BTD6)|Super Brittle]]: 1.8s → 1.~~35s~~

Enhanced Freeze is useful for starting [[Race Event]]s when {{BTD6|Mortar Monkey}} is banned, stalling {{BTD6|Super Ceramic Bloon}}s ~~(with 1~~-1-0), ~~and the Round 21~~-~~30 and 31~~-40 {{BTD6|Golden Bloon}}s ~~(with~~ 0-1-2 and 2-1-0, respectively). As a crosspath, it is recommended for {{BTD6|Ice Shards}} regardless of the situation. Enhanced Freeze is recommended {{BTD6|Embrittlement}} and {{BTD6|Super Brittle}} outside of [[Freeplay]] and Tier 4/5 [[Boss Bloon]]s, {{BTD6|Cryo Cannon}} and {{BTD6|Icicles}} when innate [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo]] detection is not needed, and {{BTD6|Icicle Impale}} when both {{BTD6|Acidic Mixture Dip}} and {{BTD6|Radar Scanner}} can be obtained. In the cases of Ice Shards, Cryo Cannon, Icicles, and Icicle Impale, further crosspathing with {{BTD6|Deep Freeze}} is strongly recommended.

Enhanced Freeze is a useful crosspath for maximizing consistency and DPS, combined with its slowdown of Bloon groups. Without anything to increase freeze duration, it can set Bloons consistently near the Ice Monkey, with only 0.05 seconds between each freeze (1.8 seconds cooldown, versus 1.75 seconds of freezing). It's helpful for starting [[Race Event]]s when {{BTD6|Mortar Monkey}} is banned, having consistent attack speed with reasonable pierce. Its increased attack speed also allows for faster Ice Fragments with [[Silas (BTD6)|Silas]] strategies.

With 1-1-0, it can assist stalling of {{BTD6|Super Ceramic Bloon}}s by consistently applying Permafrost. Versus {{BTD6|Golden Bloon}}s, Enhanced Freeze can be used for Round 21-30 and 31-40, using 0-1-2 and 2-1-0, respectively. For Silas strategies, the 0-1-0 is enough if only wanting to maximize Ice Fragments. When bought as a crosspath, it is recommended for {{BTD6|Ice Shards}} regardless of the situation. Enhanced Freeze is recommended {{BTD6|Embrittlement}} and {{BTD6|Super Brittle}} outside of [[Freeplay]] and Tier 4/5 [[Boss Bloon]]s, {{BTD6|Cryo Cannon}} and {{BTD6|Icicles}} when innate [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo]] detection is not needed, and {{BTD6|Icicle Impale}} when both {{BTD6|Acidic Mixture Dip}} and {{BTD6|Radar Scanner}} can be obtained.
