Benjamin is the only hero that does not directly damage Bloons, instead focusing on generating [[cash]] and supporting towers in other ways. Most of his upgrades increase the amount of cash he earns or add new ways he generates income. Starting at level 7 he gains the Trojan attack, which causes affected Bloons to not spawn any children when its outer layer is popped, and returning some cash in return. Higher levels can also generate [[lives]]. His level 3 ability is Biohack, which temporarily increases the damage of towers but with a downtime afterwards during which they cannot attack. His level 10 ability is Siphon Funding, which downgrades newly spawned Bloons and makes them generate more cash than usual. | Benjamin is the only hero that does not directly damage Bloons, instead focusing on generating [[cash]] and supporting towers in other ways.

For 10 seconds, it causes all newly spawned Bloons to be downgraded 1 layer, and affected Bloons generate twice as much cash as normal when popped. Syphon Funding cannot affect [[BAD (BTD6)|BADs]] or [[Boss Bloon]]s, and must be at least Level 18 to affect [[DDT (BTD6)|DDTs]]. This ability has a cooldown of 65 seconds and an initial cooldown of 21.67 seconds. | ||

Benjamin is an easy-to-use hero for income generation. He can quickly snowball income in the early-game and provide heaps of cash at his highest levels. The life regeneration also assists in greeding income during early rounds. However, his abilities are harder to use, and have noteworthy drawbacks; Biohack offers a burst of damage at the cost of downtime, and Syphon Funding's layer downgrade assists against threats of BFBs and ZOMGs but loses a lot of money. | |||
