Upgrading the Beast Handler disables its staff attack, expands its range significantly, and allows it to command a Beast [[sub-tower]] to attack for it. A Beast Handler can control up to two Beasts at a time by purchasing upgrades on two different upgrade paths. Each Beast has a Beast Power stat that determines its [[damage]], [[attack speed]], [[pierce]], and certain other factors depending on the type of Beast. A Beast can be merged with another Beast if its Beast Handler is within range, which combines their Beast Power. Beast Handlers with merged Beasts share their range with each other, creating a network of targeting areas for their Beasts similar to [[Advanced Intel (BTD6)|Advanced Intel]]. | Upgrading the Beast Handler disables its staff attack, expands its range significantly, and allows it to command a Beast [[sub-tower]] to attack for it.

At higher tiers, it can knock Bloons backwards and can grab stronger Bloons and drag them into the water to insta-kill them. It can be placed and relocated to anywhere on [[water]] within range of the Beast Handler or any Beast Handlers it is merged with.
