'''Super Range Tacks''' is the [[Tack Shooter (BTD6)|Tack Shooter]]'s path 2 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases range by +3.9 [[Unit|units]], ~~increases~~ [[~~pierce~~]] ~~from 1 to 4~~, and ~~increases~~ [[~~Projectile Lifespan|projectile lifespan~~]]. ~~If purchased as a crosspath for~~ {{BTD6|Ring of Fire}}, {{BTD6|Inferno Ring}}~~, or~~ {{BTD6|The Tack Zone}}, the pierce is ~~increased from 30 to 45, 45 to 60, or 2 to 10, respectively~~.

Crosspaths further increase with certain upgrades:

*{{BTD6|Ring of Fire}} or {{BTD6|Inferno Ring}}: the pierce increase is +15

*{{BTD6|The Tack Zone}}: the pierce increase is +8 and the range bonus is +20 units instead.<section end="lede" />

The large pierce boost that Super Range Tacks grants makes it a very strong tower to start with on [[Race Event]]s~~, as~~ with 1-2-0, it can take out the first dozen rounds simultaneously when placed on a good bend. Elsewhere, Super Range Tacks is a strong early-game tower on maps with very good bends (which maximize its large pierce), but falls short on maps without them, where it is only recommended as a crosspath.

The large pierce boost that Super Range Tacks grants makes it a very strong tower to start with on [[Race Event]]s; with crosspaths (1-2-0 being the most cost-efficient of the lower-tiers), it can take out the first dozen rounds simultaneously when placed on a good bend. Elsewhere, Super Range Tacks is a strong early-game tower on maps with very good bends (which maximize its large pierce), but falls short on maps without them, where it is only recommended as a crosspath.

Super Range Tacks is the optimal crosspath for {{BTD6|Hot Shots}}, which only has 1 pierce and benefits greatly from the +3 pierce that Super Range Tacks provides. Super Range Tacks is preferred for {{BTD6|Ring of Fire}} ~~when~~ extra ~~range~~ is ~~desired to reach the outskirts of bends,~~ and for {{BTD6|Inferno Ring}} when no pierce buffs can be obtained, but is suboptimal for Tier 3+ bottom-path Tack Shooters outside of Race Events.

Super Range Tacks is the optimal crosspath for {{BTD6|Hot Shots}}, which only has 1 pierce and benefits greatly from the +3 pierce that Super Range Tacks provides. Super Range Tacks is preferred for {{BTD6|Ring of Fire}} in Race Events where extra pierce is needed and for {{BTD6|Inferno Ring}} when no pierce buffs can be obtained, but is suboptimal for Tier 3+ bottom-path Tack Shooters outside of Race Events.

The maximized crosspathed range provided by Super Range Tacks allows greater coverage on bends, though the main incentive is usually the pierce bonus. On some maps, such as [[Spillway]], this Tack can reach areas that other Tacks cannot; in Spillway, it can attack if placed at the bottom of the map's barrel.
