Mechanics

Submerge

This section is incomplete. You can help out by expanding it. The editor who added this notice did not specify a reason.

When first bought, Nautic Siege Core will be unsubmerged. It can be toggled to submerge/unsubmerge with a special targeting button, at a cooldown of 1 second.

Cruise missile

This section is incomplete. You can help out by expanding it. The editor who added this notice did not specify a reason.

When unsubmerged, Nautic Siege Core fires cruise missiles that burst into three darts.

Radioactive wave

This section is incomplete. You can help out by expanding it. The editor who added this notice did not specify a reason.

When Submerged, Nautic Siege Core gains a radioactive wave that rapidly damages bloons that make contact with it. Nautic Siege Core also provides 20% reduced ability cooldowns to all ability based monkeys globally, but all water towers within its range have their ability cooldowns halved and paragons with activated abilities (excluding himself) have their ability cooldowns reduced by 10%. Heroes within its range have their damage sextupled and pierce tripled, but have an attack cooldown penalty of 30% (attacking roughly 23% slower) but also gain quintuple the XP they gain (this does not include cash injections). All Subs within its range have their damage septupled and their pierce also tripled.

Version 20.0

“

The cost efficiency of Sub Commander's +5 pierce favored low tiers more than we’d like. Fortunately other paths of sub don’t care so much about pierce, so as xx4 AP Darts gives its own large pierce increase we hope lowering the amount of this buff slightly will make driving to T4 more meaningful. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-X-5 Sub Commander	Sub Commander buff: pierce bonus reduced ― +5 → +4

Version 22.0

“

Ballistic Missile previously had far too much attack speed added into the crosspath and was rebalanced for parity, but the overall performance loss from this was too much. Better balance will come from the base rate of Ballistic Missile itself. — Update notes

”

X-X-5 Sub Commander	Resolved some issues with xx5 Sub Commander not always correctly buffing the damage of x5x Pre-emptive Strike (bug fix)

Version 23.0

“

As Bloontonium Reactor rarely uses up enough pierce that the pierce crosspath would ever matter, a large chunk of this has been moved into the middle crosspath. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
4-X-X Bloontonium Reactor	Damage pulse: base pierce reduced ― 70 → 50 Note: Does not affect Energizer (1000)

Version 26.0

“

As Airburst Darts alone already gives a huge benefit to the tower regardless of not applying any crosspath buff, some of the attack speed benefit this upgrade gave to 032 Ballistic Missile has instead been moved into the base 030 Missile. — Update notes

“

Ballistic Missile’s 230 crosspath has been in a confusing spot for a while where it functioned different to Advanced Intel, so it has been converted to function with Advanced Intel in the same way that any other Sub upgrade would. Additionally First Strike's secondary explosion has had its target count reduced slightly. — Update notes

“

Previously the rate increase to Ballistic Missile from crosspath was reduced due to Airburst having enough value on it’s own. This reason still applies as Airburst provides a significant power boost just on it’s own, so all rate increase has been removed from Airburst and applied directly to the base Ballistic Missile to help crosspath diversity slightly. — Update notes

Similar types of camo reveal like Shimmer/Signal Flare/Embrittlement are all pierce limited, but the Submerge sub has practically infinite pierce while also being extremely cheap with a very fast rate and a T4 that is far better at camo removal than those other towers can reach. Giving this upgrade a more reasonable pierce value brings these more in line and allows for the pierce crosspath to have some potential meaning. — Update notes

We have come back a number of times to add, fix & balance sub crosspathing, over years of learning though it currently feels messy and we’d like simplification. Heat-Tipped Darts doesn’t increase base sub pierce, so it feels silly to require it for maximum pierce on Submerged subs. Likewise Airburst shouldn’t be required to maximize the rate of submerged subs, instead we’d rather give people an easier way to work with the Airburst attack if they desire to upgrade to it so ‘Submerge’ is moving to a new Tower Special rather than target priority. Ballistic Missiles always had excessive pierce for what it is, so this is being cut back on. — Update notes

As currently nothing else ever happens with the main attack beyond T2 on the top path we want to give Energizer a little more power here to promote reason to un-submerge, although knowing how well this attack scales in terms of buffability we’re starting off with a careful amount to not take this too far. — Update notes

Bloontonium Reactor’s unsubmerged damage is increasing to encourage unsubmerged possibilities.

We’re improving Reactor’s attack cooldown to improve general consistency. Ballistic Missile struggles greatly against standard Bloons since almost all of its power is in the Ceramic/Moab bonus, so we’re also balancing this consistency out with greater damage to standard targets while retaining the same total MOAB-Class power at the cost of pierce. Sub Paragon unsubmerged form is overperforming, so we’re reducing the boss power of the main attack while greatly improving the less desirable submerged power. — Update notes

Price reductions for Energizer to reduce the cost of related build synergies.

Energizer’s cooldown reduction for nearby water towers has always felt excessive, so we’re dialing it back to 40%, still strong just not quite double uptime strong. Pre-Emptive Strike’s ability is getting a serious boost, both in raw damage and AoE, so hopefully the upgrade can finally feel like a significant step up.
