Aircraft Carrier (BTD6): Difference between revisions

Line 20:

== Mechanics ==

Each aircraft follows the same [[Target Priority|target priority]] as the Aircraft Carrier. They have infinite range and can see over obstacles. Aircraft can fly all around the map, alternating between honing in towards their target and flying away after passing over them. If no targets are on screen, they fly around near the main tower.

If no visible targets are on screen, they fly around near the main tower.

Aircraft have several attacks.

Line 33:

If [[Grape Shot (BTD6)|Grape Shot]] is purchased, aircraft do not fire Radial Darts. Instead, they fire 6 grape projectiles in a 90 degree spread in front of them.

Without the [[Hot Shot (BTD6)|Hot Shot]] upgrade, ~~Grapes~~ have ~~the same~~ statistics as Radial Darts. With Hot Shot, ~~they~~ are able to damage [[Lead Bloon (BTD6)|Lead]] and [[Frozen Bloon|Frozen Bloons]] while losing the ability to pop [[Purple Bloon (BTD6)|Purple Bloons]]. Additionally, they apply a fire damage-over-time effect which deals 4 damage every 0.5 seconds, and lasts for 3.1 seconds.

Without the [[Hot Shot (BTD6)|Hot Shot]] upgrade, these grapes have similar statistics to Radial Darts, except their attack cooldown is 1 second instead of 1.2 and their projectile speed is double while their lifespan is half that of Radial Darts. With Hot Shot, grapes are able to damage [[Lead Bloon (BTD6)|Lead]] and [[Frozen Bloon|Frozen Bloons]] while losing the ability to pop [[Purple Bloon (BTD6)|Purple Bloons]]. Additionally, they apply a fire damage-over-time effect which deals 4 damage every 0.5 seconds, and lasts for 3.1 seconds.

The aircraft's grape attack is not affected by {{BTD6 mk|Big Bunch}}.

The main Destroyer grapes are the same as the T3, however the Hot Shot grapes ~~deal~~ 4 damage every 1.5 seconds for up to 3.1 seconds.

The main Destroyer grapes are the same as the T3, however the DoT damage from Hot Shot grapes is increased from 2 to 4 damage per tick, still ticking every 1.5 seconds for up to 3.1 seconds.
