Velociraptor: Difference between revisions
Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) stunned bloons assumes also moab-class that are stunned, it's not a moab mauler and it does not do extra damage to non-stunned blimps. also, "it does more blimp damage" is a misnomer; again, it's not a moab mauler. "more consistency" is why power 24 would be done if ever it needs that |
Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) →Strategy: also the d24 is specifically done when pierce is a concern, in which "groups" is the reason why velo is used with d24 instead of d18 for the one-shot, though i don't use velo myself, so I can't really give much advice here |

Velociraptor is used at Power 18 and above due to its ability to one-shot groups of [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramics]] during mid-game. It can take out entire rushes during round 63 in just two hits, or one attack per lane on split lane maps. It also does solid damage against blimps, but struggles to handle fortified blimps and will need some support here as well as repositioning to get enough time to pop them. Since it relies on one-shotting Ceramics, it can become a lot weaker if earlier towers in the track break open Ceramics and cause pierce issues for it, requiring repositioning to handle Ceramic rushes before then. | Velociraptor is used at Power 18 and above due to its ability to one-shot groups of [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramics]] during mid-game.

Low power Velociraptor is slow and weak compared to Power 6 [[Adasaurus]] before it, and it should always be merged to at least 18 power. Typically, this is done with 2 Velociraptors plus an Adasaurus.

Typically, this is done with 2 Velociraptors plus an Adasaurus. Power 24 has more consistency with faster attack speed, does better against blimps and groups, and is useful if planning to upgrade to [[Tyrannosaurus Rex]] later, but is much less important than reaching Power 18. | ||
