'''Hydra Rocket Pods''' is the [[Dartling Gunner (BTD6)|Dartling Gunner]]'s path 2 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. Instead of darts, it fires missiles that produce multiple ~~expensions~~. Each missile does zero damage and consumes 2 pierce every time it hits a new target, creating an explosion that deals 1 damage, has 6 pierce, and 8 blast radius. Both the missile and explosions can gain extra pierce, allowing missiles to explode more times.

When crosspathed with [[Laser Shock (BTD6)|Laser Shock]], the shock only is applied by the missile, and does not do extra shocked damage. [[Powerful Darts (BTD6)|Powerful Darts]] increases pierce of both missiles and explosions by +2, essentially adding an extra explosion plus an extra 2 pierce per explosion.

Hydra Rocket Pods is fairly decent for ripping apart crowds of bloons, especially given its extreme buffability and lack of damage type weaknesses, but often too expensive for general usage and lacks pierce to clear hyperdense rounds. It has some uses in Race Events and CT Time Attack when going for [[Rocket Storm (BTD6)|Rocket Storm]], but generally outclassed by other options. However, Hydra Rocket Pods does stand out in CT Least Tiers, which for its tier requires no extra relics to damage all bloon types while still offering solid bloon damage.
