'''Trident Efficiency''' is the [[Mermonkey (BTD6)|Mermonkey]]'s path 1 tier 1 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It reduces the [[attack cooldown]] of the Mermonkey's trident [[attack]] by 20%, increasing its [[attack speed]] by 25%. It also increases the pulling rate of the trances of [[Alluring Melody]] and above by +11.11%, but does not decrease the downtime of the trance. It has no effect on the [[Arctic Knight]]'s Ice Jet ability.

Trident Efficiency is rather weak for a lower-tier Mermonkey, which is often less effective than buying a second Mermonkey. Hence, this upgrade is usually bought as a crosspath, especially for higher-tier Mermonkeys. It's still useful for a minor speed buff to lower-tier Mermonkeys.

It's less effective than [[Sharper Prongs]] in [[Race (BTD6)|Race]] conditions but still the best crosspath for an existing 0-1-0 Mermonkey.
