Apache Dartship is an expensive T4 that | Apache Dartship is an expensive but only decent T4 that takes down most mid-game rounds with ease on maps with one active entrance per round, due to its slow flight speed. Apache Dartship mostly stands out in {{BTD6|Contested Territory}} Least Tiers, where it can be a set-and-forget after upgrading from a buffed [[Razor Rotors (BTD6)|Razor Rotors]]. In [[CHIMPS]], it only serves as a saveup to {{BTD6|Apache Prime}}, which still has the map weaknesses, but it pairs well with [[Rosalia (BTD6)|Rosalia]] as she greatly discounts it and the T5. | ||
4-0-2 is preferred for optimal DPS as opposed to 4-2-0, whose flight speed boost is insufficient for multi-lane maps and [[Camo detection]] that is better bought elsewhere (outside of [[Least Tiers]] in {{BTD6|Contested Territory}}, {{BTD6|Odyssey}}s, etc). | |||
