Avenger
|
 Shotgun hits release shrapnel and can even knock back MOABs. When lives are lost, weaker Bloons only take 1 life each for a short time.
|
| Tower | Desperado — Path 3 — Tier 4 | |
|---|---|---|
| XP cost | 14,000 | |
| Cash cost | $5,525 — Easy $6,500 — Medium $7,020 — Hard $7,800 — Impoppable | |
Avenger is the Desperado's path 3 tier 4 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It increases the damage of the pistol attack from 6 to 18 and does +18 Ceramic damage, increases the knockback of the shotgun attack on non-blimp types to -200%, allows it to knock MOAB-Class Bloons back at -100% speed, and causes each shell to spray three shrapnel projectiles on contact with a Bloon, spread 120° apart each dealing 1 damage to up to 6 bloons (affected by 
Extra Dart Pops).
Additionally, whenever a life is lost, all Bloons up to Rainbow only take away 1 life when they leak, alongside all the effects gained from the Nomad upgrade, for 15 seconds.

Avenger is somewhat weak for its cost without pierce buffs such as Primary Training, having average damage and MOAB-class knockback for its cost. Since its knockback is a speed multiplier, it lacks much synergy with other slowdown effects, but it does want a Berserker Brew and Primary Training for better pierce and enjoys speed buffs in general. The shotgun's low range, pierce, and damage demands multiple buffs including Berserker Brew to become a viable midgame carry, worsens consistency if it doesn't follow straight lines, and still struggles to dense rounds.
If only used for MOAB-class knockback, Avenger's shotgun range can be positioned just far enough from the track to avoid targeting Ceramic Bloons but only target the large hitboxes of MOAB-class, particularly for the Quickdraw benefits. Since its knockback is just as strong against ZOMGs as against MOABs, it should focus on stalling the strongest bloons to make the most of its low pierce. Setting on Strong usually accomplishes that. Acidic Mixture Dip buffs wear off too quickly for Avenger to beat DDTs, but blimp debuffs such as Glue Strike are reliable.
Its life loss reduction effect is generally hard to use, especially as Ceramic Bloons become more prevalent in mid-game. It can be used as a last resort for leaks in the mid-game, but never for making income.
2-0-4 is the preferred crosspath, as it directly increases knockback uptime to improve its support role, and is much more effective at boosting its poor single target damage at long range as well. 0-2-4 gets more damage at close range via crits and has natural camo detection, but camo detection can actually hurt Avenger late game due to a lack of DDT damage.

Attack speed scaling with Bloons in radius should work correctly (bug fix)
Cash bonus on Bloon leak should no longer stack per Desperado- Desperado no longer gains Camo Prioritization when granted Camo detection from external sources (bug fix)
- 1-0-4, 2-0-4
- Shotgun attack: Pierce is no longer capped at 1 with top crosspath ― 1 → 3 (bug fix)
“
At higher tiers Pistol damage has increased for better long-range Single Target performance.

”
- Pistol: Damage increased ― 12 → 18
- Pistol: Bonus damage to Ceramic Bloons increased ― +12 → +18 (undocumented)
- Shotgun: Attack cooldown increased ― 1.56s → 1.97s (attack speed reduced by 20.81%)
“
Avenger’s price is going down as it did too little damage for that price range.

”
- Upgrade cost reduced ― $9,500 → $8,500
- Pistol now reloads at the end of the round
“
Bottom path desperado on the other hand suffers on trickier maps due to its low range design so we are bumping up the knockback at all tiers and reducing Avenger’s cost.

”
- Upgrade cost reduced ― $8,500 → $6,500
- Shotgun: Knockback multiplier for MOAB-Class Bloons increased ― -0.1× → -1×
- Shotgun: Knockback multiplier for Lead and Ceramic Bloons increased ― -1× → -2×
- Shotgun: Knockback multiplier for Rainbow and below Bloons increased ― -1× → -2×
“
Bottom path’s Avenger was severely underappreciated when it was last buffed, with that buff bringing in so much attention it is time to step back that power. At the same time bottom path Desperado’s low shotgun range is being scaled up to increase their useful placement, and as a fittingness and fun bonus Nomads[sic] will also be allowed to group up in range of other Nomads[sic] with no penalty.

”
- Upgrade cost increased ― $6,500 → $9,500
- Shotgun attack: Range increased ― 28 → 36
- Note: Also increases the range required to lose Wanderer stacks

- Shotgun attack: Knockback multiplier for MOAB-Class Bloons reduced ― -1× → -0.5×
