Hydra Rocket Pods is a much better upgrade in the mobile version compared to the [[Bloons TD 5 (Flash)|Flash version]] due to the aforementioned Monkey Fort projectile duplication bug, which allows it to effortlessly handle large bloon cluster rounds on its own. Without the bug, the upgrade suffers from one main issue: by the time the player is able to ~~unlock~~ it, high odds are that they are facing high HP bloons like [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD5)|Ceramics]] and [[MOAB-Class Bloon|MOAB-Class Bloons]], which are its greatest weaknesses. Thus, it is better used as a stepping stone towards its next upgrade, [[Bloon Area Denial System (BTD5)|Bloon Area Denial System]], which can serve as good bloon cleanup.
