Semi-Automatic's two crosspaths serve very different roles. Both crosspaths are concentrated versions of lower-tier Snipers, with its much higher attack speed significantly improving reliability. 0-2-3 is geared towards popping groups of bloons, provided it faces against them, while 2-0-3 offers accurate single-target damage. | {{BTD6 last updated|56.3|section=y}} | ||
Semi-Automatic's two crosspaths serve very different roles. Both crosspaths are concentrated versions of lower-tier Snipers, with its much higher attack speed significantly improving reliability. 0-2-3 is geared towards popping groups of bloons, provided it faces against them, while 2-0-3 offers accurate single-target damage. However, a 3-0-2 [[Deadly Precision (BTD6)|Deadly Precision]] Sniper is stronger and cheaper than a 2-0-3 for MOAB and Ceramic damage. | |||
0-2-3 is a decent tower for the early mid-game, dealing good and well-rounded damage on maps where it can be placed to shoot Bloons while they travel toward it (such as [[Infernal]]). However, it falls apart on maps where such placements are not available, such as [[Bloody Puddles]] and [[Ouch|#Ouch]]. | 0-2-3 is a decent tower for the early mid-game, dealing good and well-rounded damage on maps where it can be placed to shoot Bloons while they travel toward it (such as [[Infernal]]). However, it falls apart on maps where such placements are not available, such as [[Bloody Puddles]] and [[Ouch|#Ouch]]. 0-2-3 Semi-Automatic pairs very well with a 3-2-0 {{BTD6|Berserker Brew}}, which grants much-needed damage, pierce, and attack speed. | ||
The 2-0-3 Semi-Automatic is tailored towards mid-game {{BTD6|MOAB}}s. However, it struggles against groups of MOABs, making it not optimal for this purpose. While the 2-0-3 Semi-Automatic can be used against early-game {{BTD6|Lead Bloon}}s and {{BTD6|Zebra Bloon}}s, it is too expensive and struggles immensely to Round 36. | The 2-0-3 Semi-Automatic is tailored towards mid-game {{BTD6|MOAB}}s.

*Internally, this upgrade also increases the pierce of the main attack from 1 to 5, but it has no effect because the bullet ignores all [[Bloon]]s except the target. | *Internally, this upgrade also increases the pierce of the main attack from 1 to 5, but it has no effect because the bullet ignores all [[Bloon]]s except the target. | ||
