Monkey Bank (BMC): Difference between revisions

it's kinda funny how the roles flip between bank and BIA between the btd5 gen games, even if both use cases are somewhat obscure.

conclusion, the bank mvm glitch isn't really worth it (why not just spam plantations early on after completing the ceramic and moab rushes and getting the wincon like spectre or apache which hardcarries the entire game?) you get lots of money elsewhere anyway and not beating the final zomg after the last spawned bloon is spawned is just skill issue I guess...

'''Monkey Bank''' is the [[Banana Farm (BMC)|Banana Farm]]'s path 2 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons Monkey City]]''. {{#lst:Monkey Bank (BTD5)|lede 1a}} $10 per round, totalling $450 ($15 per packet and a total of $600 on the {{flash version of|Bloons Monkey City}}), {{#lst:Monkey Bank (BTD5)|lede 1b}} $5000 ($7500 in the Flash version); {{#lst:Monkey Bank (BTD5)|lede 1c}} {{#lst:Monkey Bank (BTD5)|lede 2}}
 
With [[Monkey Knowledge (BMC)|Monkey Knowledge]] on Banana Farm, the Monkey Bank provides additional benefits:
*'''Ranks 4, 9, and 14''': Interest in its bank account increases by 2% from the original amount (12%, 14%, 16%)
*'''Ranks 5, 10, and 15''': With at least one Monkey Bank or above, the current cash stored at the end of the round is increased by 2%, 4%, or 6%. This effect doesn't stack with other Banks.
 
Due to [[List of errors in BTD5 and BMC (multiplatform)#MVM Final Round Errors|a bug]] in the {{multiplat version of|Bloons Monkey City}}, the final spawned Bloon on the final round of [[Monkey vs Monkey]] causes Monkey Bank's income generation to trigger on every frame, which includes the Rank 5+ Banana Farm MK's end-of-round cash benefit.

Does not include Rank 5+ Banana Farm's direct end-of-round cash.

The Monkey Bank is simply not worth it due to the lowered round count of tiles compared to Bloons TD 5, making withdrawls much more risky due to lack of reinvestment speed. However, with Monkey Knowledge, a niche appears where it can generate more interest based on the amount of cash in reserves. Only a single bank is needed to do this, so the rest of the farms should be [[Banana Research Facility (BMC)|Banana Research Facilities]].
Due to the lowered round count of tiles compared to ''Bloons TD 5'', Monkey Bank is simply not worth it in most situations due to its very high cumulative costs for its slow and inefficient reinvestment rate. However, with Rank 5+ Monkey Knowledge, a niche opens where it can generate a new method of interest based on the amount of cash in reserves. Only a single bank is needed to do this, so the rest of the farms should be [[Banana Research Facility (BMC)|Banana Research Facilities]].
