Towers

Boomerang Monkey

“

This part has to be included along with the Lych Soul rework with Paragons which is finally making it in this update after necessary delays. As Boomerang Paragon’s knockback hits so many times so quickly, we need to make it more reasonable when applied to targets that aren’t immediately destroyed. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
Paragon	Glaive Dominus anti-MOAB glaives knockback amount reduced ― 3 → 1

Bomb Shooter

“

MOAB Assassin fills a useful role of a pure long cooldown ‘single target assassination’ in the game, but when compared to something like First Strike it feels a little lacking that it is unable to carry damage through MOAB Layers — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-4-X MOAB Assassin X-5-X MOAB Eliminator	MOAB Assassin and MOAB Eliminator abilities now penetrates through MOAB layers  MOAB Assassin ability explosion centers around the impact target

Tack Shooter

“

Blade Shooter has always struggled to find much value without MK or as a step to Maelstrom, so to give it build value on its own we feel like this should be a part of the base value on the upgrade. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-3-X Blade Shooter and further upgrades	Blade pierce increased ― 6 → 8

Ice Monkey

“

Lowest tiers of ice monkey are far too effective for their cost against ceramics, with this scaling well all the way to round 100, we feel like ice duration against ceramics needs to be reduced to counter this but for now this reduction will only apply until T3. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
0-0-0 base tower 1-X-X Permafrost 2-X-X Cold Snap X-1-X Enhanced Freeze X-2-X Deep Freeze X-X-1 Larger Radius X-X-2 Re-Freeze	Freeze duration: reduced by 50% on ceramics Note: Tier 3s and above unaffected
X-X-2 Re-Freeze	Resolved a number of cases of the Refreeze crosspath not re-freezing bloons when dealing certain numbers of damage (bug fix)
2-0-3 Cryo Cannon + Cold Snap and further upgrades	Cold Snap crosspath now grants camo prio

Glue Gunner

“

The Bloon Solver’s rework has been very popular, however, we’d like to have a better lead up into the new mechanics by introducing this earlier at the tier 4 now. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
4-X-X Bloon Liquefier	Now creates puddles on the track 1 damage 7.7s duration 3 pierce

Sniper Monkey

“

This will allow Cripple MOAB to take out regular MOAB layers in one shot until round 100; for such a slow attacking single target tower we feel this will help top path flex, even if mostly for show. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
5-X-X Cripple MOAB	Damage increased ― 80 → 280

Monkey Buccaneer

“

Reworking Grape Shot crosspathing as it gains far too much crosspath value by T2 but then is lacking in purpose at higher tiers, double shot will only work as one extra grape however Destroyer will now apply its full attack rate buff to the grapes and Flagship will equip aspects of Grape Shot on the mini planes. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
2-1-0 Double Shot + Grape Shot and further upgrades	Grape Shot: projectiles reduced ― 10 → 6
3-1-0 Destroyer + Grape Shot and further upgrades	Grape Shot: attack cooldown decreased ― 0.39s → 0.195s
4-0-X Aircraft Carrier 5-0-X Carrier Flagship	Aircraft Carrier plane radials damage ― 1 → 2
4-X-X Aircraft Carrier 5-X-X Carrier Flagship	Aircraft Carrier missiles now follow tower target priority
4-1-0 Aircraft Carrier + Grape Shot and further upgrades	Aircraft Carrier planes radial attack now fires an arc of grapes instead of darts  Aircraft Carrier planes radial Emission Angle ― 360 → 90  Aircraft Carrier planes radial projectile count ― 8 → 6  Aircraft Carrier plane grape projectile speed ― 100 → 200
4-2-0 Aircraft Carrier + Hot Shot 5-2-0 Carrier Flagship + Hot Shot	Aircraft Carrier planes radial damage type ― Sharp → Fire
X-X-5 Trade Empire	Trade Empire should no longer buff too many merchants in co-op (bug fix)
Paragon	Resolved an issue where Navarch’s attack rate buff would not apply to Doomship in some cases depending on build order (bug fix)

Monkey Ace

“

Spectre is shifting a little of the ceramic bonus around into basic all damage at the cost of reduced pierce, which should make up for lack of single target damage while also making the pierce crosspath more necessary when being used for cleanup focus. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-X-2 Centered Path	Upgrading to Centered Path no longer refreshes the cooldown on the special toggle (bug fix)
X-X-4 Spectre	Dart: damage increased ― 3 → 4  Dart: ceramic bonus reduced ― +2 → +1  Dart: pierce reduced ― 15 → 10  Bomb: damage increased ― 2 → 3  Bomb: ceramic bonus reduced ― +4 → +3  Bomb: pierce reduced ― 30 → 20

Heli Pilot

“

Even with the map-range advantage, rotors are weak compared to any other constant AoE circle like this. Chinook feels like it’s near a place we are happy with now, however we want another tiny nudge on cost while keeping cash generation value the same. Pushing some higher values on the last Comanche Commander changes as the missile attack is effectively such a small portion of the tower’s total damage late game. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
3-X-X Razor Rotors and further upgrades	Razor Rotors: attack cooldown reduced ― 0.75s → 0.5s
3-0-2 Razor Rotors + Faster Firing and further upgrades	Razor Rotors: now benefits from the faster firing crosspath ― 0.75s → 0.4s
X-4-X Support Chinook	Upgrade cost reduced ― $10,500 → $9,500  Supply Crate: cash generated reduced ― $1650 → $1550
X-4-X Support Chinook X-5-X Special Poperations	Supply Crate: Max uses per round reduced ― 3 → 2
X-X-4 Comanche Defense X-X-5 Comanche Commander	Comanche mini's follow the target priority set on their main Heli
X-X-5 Comanche Commander	Missile: damage increased ― 7 → 15  Missile: MOAB bonus increased ― +5 → +8  Comanche mini's missile: damage increased ― 5 → 15  Comanche mini's missile: MOAB bonus increased ― +5 → +8

Mortar Monkey

“

As the Rapid Reload crosspath has actually fallen behind in value compared to Burny Stuff for top path Mortars we want to try a slight stun duration increase as this buffs the base path with a larger benefit to Rapid Reload mortars as a stalling option. Mortar consistency is lacking at x3x making it tough to spend on even though x4x is fairly good, so some of the T4 rate is shifting down to help out with this. As the camo property has grown quite weak and currently Signal Flare is considered the best decamo tool, we want to push back slightly on its cost and by reducing the blast radius of the decamo area while emphasizing crosspathing for effectiveness there. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
4-X-X The Big One 5-X-X The Biggest One	Stun: duration to non-MOABs increased ― 0.5s → 0.75s
5-X-X The Biggest One	Stun: duration MOABs increased ― 0.3s → 0.5s  Stun: duration BFBs increased ― 0.2s → 0.3s  Stun: duration DDTs increased ― 0.2s → 0.3s
X-3-X Heavy Shells	Attack cooldown reduced ― 1.08s → 0.81s Note: Artillery Battery buff reduced from 1/4 rate to 1/3 rate but attack speed remains at 0.27
X-X-3 Signal Flare	Upgrade cost increased ― $700 → $800
X-X-3 Signal Flare and further upgrades	Decamo: radius reduced ― 50 → 43
1-0-3 Signal Flare + Bigger Blast and further upgrades	Decamo: Bigger Blasts pierce bonus increased ― +5 → +10
X-X-4 Shattering Shells	Upgrade cost reduced ― $11,000 → $10,900  DoT: Now grants +5 MOAB bonus Note: Blooncineration unchanged

Super Monkey

“

As Engineer sentries do this already, newly spawned Mini Avatars from temples will now by default match the target priority of the temple. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
4-X-X Sun Temple 5-X-X True Sun God	Mini Sun Avatars: when placed will spawn with the same target prio as their parent tower

Ninja Monkey

“

We’re changing the Ninja Monkey Paragon’s focus as a fighter against camo, as we feel like a greater strength and tactical value against camo will be the full reveal of all camos rather than all camo removal. — Update notes

”

Tiers

Changes

Paragon

Now grants global camo detection instead of stripping camo from Bloons with every attack Note: Buff since towers with bonus Camo damage can continue performing them  Main attack: now deals +6 damage to Camo  Flash Bomb explosion: now deals +20 damage to Camo  Flash Bomb shuriken: now deals +16 damage to Camo  Sticky Bomb projectile: now deals +3,200 damage to Camo  Sticky Bomb explosion: now deals +700 damage to Camo  Now deals 25% damage to all non-Boss MOABs that spawn

Alchemist

“

Alchemist Transforming Tonic is in a weird spot with the transformation unable to attack through walls when the base alchemist is able to. Also with this, including a QoL fix for the T5 that currently prevents transformed towers from functioning with target priority. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-4-X Transforming Tonic X-5-X Total Transformation	Transformed alchemist can now ignore line of sight
X-5-X Total Transformation	Towers transformed by Total Transformation will keep their Target Priority

Druid

“

While the tornado doesn't do anything to MOABs, it still spends itself on them which wastes a relatively long cooldown, so addressing this flaw. Avatar of wrath doubles the base attack speed before any scaling is applied, but this hasn’t ever applied to the 205 Lightning, so taking care of that as well. Housekeeping - even deep in the forest, it does actually make life better. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
3-X-X Druid of the Storm and further upgrades	Tornado: no longer targets MOAB-class Bloons Note: This is a buff as the tornado does not affect MOAB-class Bloons
X-3-X Druid of the Jungle	Jungle Vine defaults tower to strong priority when purchased
X-3-X Druid of the Jungle and further upgrades	Jungle Vine follows target prio of tower instead of always targeting strong  Jungle Vine Brambles without Hard Thorns are now destroyed by Lead/Frozen bloons Note: Lead and Frozen Bloons are still targetable
2-0-5 Avatar of Wrath + Heart of Thunder	Avatar of Wrath base Heart of Thunder attack rate increased ― 2.3s → 1.15s

Spike Factory

“

We’ve heard the feedback, so Spiked Mines get a tweak to get more mines exploding but with less pierce on each, to overall increase quality of life in more frequent use but less wasted pierce. This will help out with some of the problems it has scaling into late game super ceramics. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
4-X-X Spiked Mines	Spiked Mines Explosion: pierce reduced ― 40 → 30 Note: Super Mines explosion pierce remains at 60  DoT: damage increased ― 1 → 10
4-X-X Spiked Mines 5-X-X Super Mines	Spike pierce increased ― 12 → 20
5-X-X Super Mines	DoT: damage increased ― 1000 → 2500

Monkey Village

“

A minor QoL for cheap Monkeyopolis creation, we included a small base amount of cash production to the generation formula. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-X-5 Monkeyopolis	Monkeyopolis income formula now includes a base +$2500 minimum

Banana Farm

Tiers	Changes
5-X-X Banana Central	Banana Central no longer buffs other Banana Centrals in co-op (bug fix)

Engineer Monkey

“

The 005 crosspath fix in the last update left XXXL Trap slower than previously even if crosspathed to 205, so we are increasing that base 005 slightly to match up the 205 crosspath again so that it isn’t any slower than before. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-X-5 XXXL Trap	XXXL Trap: attack cooldown reduced ― 5.8s → 4.6s Note: 205 decreased from 3.48s to 2.76s attack rate. Effectively 2.8s due to minimum trap delay
Paragon	Resolved an issue where the Paragon’s permanent speed boost per round would not load until the end of the first round played after loading a save (bug fix)  Engineer Paragon should no longer throw sentries into the middle of the map due to techbots (bug fix)

Beast Handler

“

As our newest tower to be added to BTD6, we went over feedback for every path and made a large number of adjustments addressing a variety of points. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
1-X-X Piranha and further upgrades X-1-X Microraptor and further upgrades	Top and Middle path Beast Handler paths can now be targeted by Overclock and Ultraboost
3-X-X Great White	Great White damage increased ― 4 → 8  Great White max extra damage from merge increased ― 8 → 16 Note: Max power Great White damage increased from 12 to 24  Great White max attack rate buff from merge increased ― 0.20634 → 0.38 Note: Thrash rate is actually a lot more than intended due to a bug   Great White extra thrash knockback duration from merge increased ― 0.1 → 0.2  Great White projectiles can no longer hit bloons far out of range (bug fix)  Great White’s slow applied to grabbed target now expires correctly (bug fix)
3-X-X Great White and further upgrades	Thrash rate benefits from speed buffs
4-X-X Orca	Orca thrash damage increased ― 20 → 30   Orca thrash max extra damage from merge increased ― 40 → 60   Orca max attack rate buff from merge increased ― 0.37829 → 0.38  Orca thrash radius increased ― 20 → 24
5-X-X Megalodon	Upgrade cost reduced ― $55,000 → $45,000  Megalodon thrash radius increased ― 30 → 36
X-1-X Microraptor	Microraptor no longer fails to attack in some cases when being moved to different heights (bug fix)
X-4-X Tyrannosaurus Rex X-5-X Giganotosaurus	Tyrannosaurus Rex and Giganotosaurus Max Merge Bonus: Overkill damage on MOABs now distributes to the children of that target  Stomp ability now scales with Challenge Editor ability cooldown slider (bug fix)
X-X-1 Gyrfalcon and further upgrades	Gyrfalcon path deals +1 damage to Regrows Note: This was added to limit accidental infinite regrow farms
X-X-3 Golden Eagle	Golden Eagle pierce increased ― 12 → 15  Golden Eagle pierce range increased ― 24 → 30  Golden Eagle ceramic pierce penalty reduced ― +3 → +1  Golden Eagle Max Merge Bonus: Now grabs MOABs with pierce penalty +14

Heroes

Gwendolin

“

Removing the stacking aspect of Gwendolin’s burn damage over time, but increasing the damage as she levels up so that it actually scales up in power now. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
6+
9+	Main attack: DoT damage increased ― 1 → 2  Main attack: DOT no longer stacks
9	Main attack: DoT damage increased ― 1 → 4
10+	Main attack: DoT damage now increases by 1 per additional level

Obyn Greenfoot

Levels	Changes
10+	Resolved an issue where Obyn’s Wall of Trees when placed on an intersection looping back around on itself would not be able to hit the children of any targets that passed over it (bug fix)

Adora

“

While they are complicated individuals, Adora can now fully appreciate the sacrifice of the newest Monkeys in the struggle against the Bloons. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
7+	Blood Sacrifice can now be used on Beast Handlers

Admiral Brickell

“

We aren’t happy with strats that start looking like exploits with frequent sell-replace loops. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
All	Sea mine: Now expires if Brickell is sold
10+	Mega Mine: Now expires if Brickell is sold

Psi

“

Psi’s stalling out of the end of round is an odd mix of useful / annoying / out of control, so we are for now capping this to a 3 seconds of overtime stalling. Psi’s Psychic Blast ability also has weirdly low pierce for a long cooldown ability with no damage, we are increasing the base pierce greatly but it no longer increases in pierce at Lv7 since the extra pulse brings more pierce anyway. — Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
All	If no Bloons are left unpopped on screen aside from ones Psi is currently holding & destroying, these Bloons will be destroyed after a maximum of 3 seconds Note: Big nerf for strategies that involve stalling
3–6	Psychic Blast pierce increased ― 50 → 200
7+	Psychic Blast pierce increased ― 100 → 200

Bosses

•  Lych-soul can now be stunned and slowed by Paragons
