'''Guided Magic''' is the [[Wizard Monkey (BTD6)|Wizard Monkey]]'s path 1 tier 1 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It doubles the [[projectile lifespan|lifespan]] of the Wizard Monkey's [[projectile]]s and allows them to [[seek]] [[Bloon]]s over a short distance and ignore [[line of sight]] blockers. This upgrade provides several [[crosspath]] benefits:

*[[Fireball (BTD6)|Fireball]] and [[Dragon's Breath (BTD6)|Dragon's Breath]] ignore blockers and last twice as long.
*[[Fireball (BTD6)|Fireball]] and [[Dragon's Breath (BTD6)|Dragon's Breath]] ignore blockers and last twice as long.

*The fire breath [[attack]]s of [[Summon Phoenix (BTD6)|Summon Phoenix]]'s and [[Wizard Lord Phoenix (BTD6)|Wizard Lord Phoenix]]'s phoenixes gain the same seeking properties as the Wizard Monkey's attack, though they're less accurate due to their projectiles' much higher [[projectile speed|speed]].

Guided Magic's homing alone is inferior compared to other options like [[Monkey Sub (BTD6)|Monkey Sub]], but it improves the Wizard's consistency against spaced out and faster bloons, allows it to ignore obstacles, and is valuable for [[Wall of Fire (BTD6)|Wall of Fire]] for its full uptime and free placement. For [[Necromancer (BTD6)|Necromancer]] and [[Prince of Darkness (BTD6)|Prince of Darkness]], the increased lifespan of Undead Bloons can be helpful for easier reach of targets far beyond its normal range.

[[Shimmer (BTD6)|Shimmer]] only needs Guided Magic if obstacles are a concern, and for [[Necromancer (BTD6)|Necromancer]] and [[Prince of Darkness (BTD6)|Prince of Darkness]] the extra lifespan of Undead Bloons can be helpful for easier reach of targets far beyond its normal range.
