*The official update notes contains a joke change to the [[Spike Factory (BTD6)|Spike Factory]]:
{{blockquote|indent=1|After much deliberation we still don’t particularly feel like making any large overhauls to the popular Permaspike upgrade right now, so we have decided that in order to follow through on this vision the best course of action would be to not do anything. This lack of attempt to make any change should in theory prevent any alterations from occurring to this particular upgrade in this update and thus leaves Permaspike extremely similar as to how it currently is. For now.
Rogue Legends took up nearly all of our balance time for this update, however as we know many players look forward to the balance changes each update we’ve included a quick list of simpler changes that shouldn’t be too game breaking. Also get me pictures of spider monkeys! — Update notes
Shuffle on lower tier upgrade costs & increased attack speed across middle path in order to offer these upgrades more value both in and out of Super Monkey Fan Club transformation. — Update notes
Nudging Bloon Impact price down, pushing it more in line with other early support options & as this is a support path. Frag damage is being greatly improved all the way up as there’s little reason to trade stun uptime for improved damage. Moving some cost up into MOAB Assassin so Maulers have more leeway early game & en masse. Cutting down roughly 10% on all bottom path upgrade costs as especially on Bomb Blitz even after recent buffs there are many downsides that need to be covered to use this path effectively. — Update notes
A long time coming - Absolute Zero will finally be able to slow MOAB-Class Bloons within its radius, and additionally the main attack while it can’t initiate attacks without Bloons in radius will freeze non MOAB-Class Bloons over the entire screen for a short time! Nudging bottom path Ice Monkey to keep up with similarly priced support options, and Icicles especially doesn't feel versatile enough, which limits chances to go down this path so it is gaining the attack rate increase from the T5. — Update notes
Improved Ceramic Damage scaling up Bloon Dissolver compared to other support options, and a small price shuffling to make Glue Hose more favourable on the journey up to Glue Strike. — Update notes
Price reductions for Energizer to reduce the cost of related build synergies. Armour Piercing Darts subs are generally a tough choice as even though their single target damage is greatly improved the pierce is lacking for the cost, so price has been reduced at T4 and T5 has been granted extra airbursts to make it more desirable an upgrade for dealing with higher pierce itself — Update notes
We’re currently happy with Pirate Lord, but Monkey Pirates has been hit hard by changes so cost is being pushed out of it to encourage multi mid path building. — Update notes
Upgrades to the basic Bombing run are never why you move up this path, so we’re improving these across the board while also reducing the cooldown of Ground Zero to match the T5. — Update notes
We’re raising move speed for Apache Dartship up to match Prime to improve skillful use in some more difficult situations mainly assisting on spread path maps — Update notes
Improvements made for the underused damage over time crosspaths, and improved damage for the T4 as it’s effective at what it does but not so versatile outside of shredding metal bands. — Update notes
Archmage still seems to prefer the 502 crosspathing, so the fire attacks are being taken even further. Summon phoenix falls off in single target fairly early so we are lowering the cost back again to bring back options to let it fly before it has to deal with so many stronger targets. Shimmer struggles as a de-camo option due to the low consistency, so the attack rate is being improved. — Update notes
Master Bomber is janky to build for given the high cost and the fuse time limits how much single target damage it can do as well, so we’ve given a massive rate boost to the sticky attack. — Update notes
Note: The effect of Counter-Espionage to remove camo gets priority over this bonus, so it doesn't get applied to regular Bloons, however it will work against Phayze while Radar Jam is active.

Middle path alchemists have complicated use cases that don’t bring enough of a payoff for the effort so the price is being reduced. Instead of being only a niche income source, the Rubber to Gold debuff is being reworked to now expire after a duration but for that duration it will nullify Bloon properties. Some seriously interesting build options from this. — Update notes
Middle path pierce was lacking all through to T5, so pierce is now being matched to T5 across the path. Symphonic Resonance is powerful, but Alluring Melody is inconsistent for a Bloon-only stall, so pierce here is also being matched up to the same as T4. — Update notes
This was becoming annoying screen clutter with large numbers of sentries, and feels unnecessary when you can overclock the engineer itself to create more sentries instead. — Update notes
As Benjamin & Geraldo dominate the main income strategies we want to push up another hero choice into the income mix, as Obyn’s druid benefits are currently applied the least effectively to middle path Druid we’re starting this off by giving a Cash Generation boost for Jungle’s Bounty. — Update notes
