Re-Freeze is the Ice Monkey's path 3 tier 2 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. This upgrade allows the Ice Monkey to target and damage frozen Bloons and reapply the freeze effect to them on each hit. It does not affect Embrittlement or Super Brittle, which can target and affect frozen Bloons by default.

This upgrade is the only way for the Ice Monkey's other crosspaths to target and pop frozen Bloons. Because its inability to pop frozen Bloons is not based on damage types, it cannot be overridden by MIB or external buffs that only modify damage types.

Strategy

This section was last updated for: version 52.2

Re-Freeze is good against the Round 21-30 Golden Bloon when bought with Enhanced Freeze. However, its inability to perma-freeze Ceramic Bloons, even with Enhanced Freeze and Deep Freeze, means that it is otherwise only recommended as a crosspath for Tier 3+ Ice Monkeys.

Re-Freeze is recommended for Arctic Wind, allowing it to perma-freeze Ceramics. It is only recommended for Snowstorm and Absolute Zero when they have support for both Camos and Leads. Re-Freeze is not useful for Embrittlement and Super Brittle, due to Bloons frozen by them lacking the frozen property, unless they are interacting with other Ice Monkeys. For Ice Shards, Re-Freeze is not recommended.

Version 2.0

•  Pierce increased ― 30 → 40

Version 8.0

•  Can now pop Lead Bloons when buffed by Acidic Mixture Dip (bug fix)

Version 28.0

“

Additionally some smaller price nerfs have been made along the lower tiers of bottom path as each of these upgrades has been standing out a little much.
— Update notes

”

•  Upgrade cost increased ― $200 → $225
  •  Overall cost increased by $100 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)

Version 29.0

4-0-2, 5-0-2

•  Larger Radius no longer prevents the Ice Monkey from stacking its debuffs (bug fix)

Version 34.0

“

Ice Monkey base pierce is too high, very easily countering large numbers of strong Bloons early, mid or late in the game for small investment, leading to very low tiers of ice monkey (below t3) being highly effective spam options over upgrading your ice. We are reworking some of this base pierce to require crosspath investment [...]
— Update notes

”

•  Pierce reduced ― 40 → 30 (extra pierce moved to Deep Freeze crosspath)

Version 37.0

“

Lowest tiers of ice monkey are far too effective for their cost against ceramics, with this scaling well all the way to round 100, we feel like ice duration against ceramics needs to be reduced to counter this but for now this reduction will only apply until T3.
— Update notes

”

•  Resolved a number of cases of the Refreeze crosspath not re-freezing bloons when dealing certain numbers of damage (bug fix)
•  Freeze duration for Ceramics is now reduced by 50%

Version 39.0

“

We’re happier with more recent freeze changes succeeding in some of the intentions of older nerfs, given the base tower value in races being hit far more than intended we’re going back over the pierce for Ice Monkey base & middle crosspath.
— Update notes

”

•  Pierce increased ― 30 → 40

Version 49.0

“

Ice Monkey value is limited at low levels where quick & spaced Bloons are the main trouble, so the cost for many low tier upgrades is moving up to higher tiers instead.
— Update notes

”

•  Upgrade cost reduced ― $225 → $200
  •  Overall cost reduced by $150 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
•  Can now be placed on water

Version 51.0

0-5-2

•  Crosspathing with any upgrade no longer prevents the slowing aura from affecting non-MOAB-Class Bloons (bug fix)
