Ultraboost (BTD6)

Due to its high price, Ultraboost is rarely viable in CHIMPS ~~Mode~~ and most standard game modes. However, it is a vital support during Boss events and Freeplay due to the strong permanent buffs it provides to towers over time. Stalling may be important to acquire as many stacks on towers as possible, though it's still capped by its 10 uses per round. Purchasing Ultraboost always sets the ability to full cooldown, so it's usually preferred if [[Overclock (BTD6)|Overclock]] uses its ability one more time before upgrading to Ultraboost.

The most powerful towers such as [[VTSG|(Vengeful)]] [[True Sun God (BTD6)|True Sun Gods]] should be given ×10 Ultraboost stacks as soon as possible, along with strong tier 5 towers such as [[M.A.D (BTD6)|M.A.D]] and [[Super Mines (BTD6)|Super Mines]]. Ultraboosting a [[Banana Central (BTD6)|Banana Central]] increases its cash production substantially, which is especially useful during Boss events. Note that [[Lych]] steals both the permanent and temporary buff of towers in range when it absorbs buffs, which heals the ~~boss~~. If using Ultraboost against Lych, try to keep boosted towers far away from Lych during tiers 1-4, and do not use Ultraboost at all during tier 5.

The following table shows the increase in production of different Banana Farms after using Ultraboost, and if they have the Overclock active or not.

~~As a supportive tower~~, Ultraboost is a very poor damage dealer by itself ~~despite the fact that it gains pierce~~. ~~It usually should~~ not ~~be crosspathed at all~~, since none of the crosspaths improve the ability.

Despite its extra pierce, Ultraboost is a very poor damage dealer by itself. Crosspaths are not needed, since none of the crosspaths improve the ability.
