{{Research|Need someone to verify the v6.4 tip updated info if these are correct to the use cases}}

*Crossbow Monkey does ~~the same amount of~~ damage as [[Night Vision Sniper]] while having more choice to pick off separate targets and better synergy with ATK buffs compared to ammo buffs.

*Crossbow Monkey does just 5 less damage than [[Night Vision Sniper]] while having more choice to pick off separate targets and much better synergy with ATK buffs compared to ammo buffs.

**Crossbow dealing ~~100~~ damage allows it to pop [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]], ~~outside of~~ Zee Jay's passive plus Dark Castle, or [[Amelia (BCS)|Amelia]] buff.

**Crossbow dealing 105 damage allows it to pop [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]], enough even if the Blooming was buffed by Zee Jay's passive plus Dark Castle, but not quite enough versus [[Amelia (BCS)|Amelia]] buff.

**On a ~~deck that relies on~~ [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BCS)|Super Monkey Fan Club]] ~~synergy to defend,~~ Crossbow ~~is still a questionable choice~~, ~~as its buffing power isn't higher than most other Dart Monkeys. Bringing it if combined in a deck with a mid-game win condition~~ to ~~defend~~ for ~~a while before~~ the ~~final kill can be a decent budget strategy~~.

**

*Many ATK buffing sources are excellent with Crossbow Monkey due to how buffable it is with high Ammo for one of the cheapest 3 Ammo options.

**This is one of the best choices with [[Zee Jay (BCS)|Zee Jay]], having a large synergy with his Rad Enhancements, and costing similar Gold to other popular Aggro mirror Monkeys like [[Robo Monkey (BCS)|Robo Monkey]].

**[[Monkey Village (BCS)|Monkey Village]] is a decent pick and works well for reinforcing Control-style decks.

**A dedicated [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BCS)|Super Monkey Fan Club]] strategy also works well with Crossbow Monkey, and both options are fairly easy to afford for newer players, excluding the need to invest in some Primary Tokens to unlock both reliably.
