'''The Blazing Sun''' is the [[Desperado (BTD6)|Desperado]]'s path 1 tier 5 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases the damage of its pistol shots from 6 to 20, grants them 40 extra damage to Ceramics, reduces the [[attack speed|attack cooldown]] between bursts from 1.2 seconds to 0.3 seconds, changes damage type from {{BTD6 dt|Sharp}} to {{BTD6 dt|Normal}}, and grants a special mechanic that changes its [[attack speed]] and allows it to inflict [[damage over time]] based on the number of shots it has fired. | '''The Blazing Sun''' is the [[Desperado (BTD6)|Desperado]]'s path 1 tier 5 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. <section begin="lede"/>It increases the damage of its pistol shots from 6 to 20, grants them 40 extra damage to Ceramics, reduces the [[attack speed|attack cooldown]] between bursts from 1.2 seconds to 0.3 seconds, changes damage type from {{BTD6 dt|Sharp}} to {{BTD6 dt|Normal}}, and grants a special mechanic that changes its [[attack speed]] and allows it to inflict [[damage over time]] based on the number of shots it has fired.<section begin="end"/> | ||

The Blazing Sun is generally unreceptive to buffs that increase attack speed and pierce (e.g. [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]]), but more range effectively improves its speed due to the [[Quickdraw (BTD6)|Quickdraw]] upgrade, so a [[Primary Training (BTD6)|Primary Training]] can be considered. The single target damage is also amplified through the [[Bounty Hunter]]'s markings as well as the Take Aim ability further improving its range to maximize Quickdraw. | The Blazing Sun is generally unreceptive to buffs that increase attack speed and pierce (e.g. [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]]), but more range effectively improves its speed due to the [[Quickdraw (BTD6)|Quickdraw]] upgrade, so a [[Primary Training (BTD6)|Primary Training]] can be considered.

The Blazing Sun is also effective at dealing with tier 1 [[Boss Bloon]]s with its high single-target damage output, namely [[Lych (BTD6)|Lych]], [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]], and the non-primary phases of [[Dreadbloon (BTD6)|Dreadbloon]]. | The Blazing Sun is also effective at dealing with tier 1 [[Boss Bloon]]s with its high single-target damage output, namely [[Lych (BTD6)|Lych]], [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]], and the non-primary phases of [[Dreadbloon (BTD6)|Dreadbloon]]. It's also a cheap Tier 5 for [[Boss Rush]]. | ||
In [[Deflation (BTD6)|Deflation]], the 5-2-0 Blazing Sun is one of two solo options, with it generally outperforming 0-2-5 [[Crossbow Master (BTD6)|Crossbow Master]] outside of maps that require high range (e.g. [[Tricky Tracks]] and [[Ravine]]). | In [[Deflation (BTD6)|Deflation]], the 5-2-0 Blazing Sun is one of two solo options, with it generally outperforming 0-2-5 [[Crossbow Master (BTD6)|Crossbow Master]] outside of maps that require high range (e.g. [[Tricky Tracks]] and [[Ravine]]). | ||
