May not necessarily be in line with Manual of Style, but I think this is a decent format to summarize all its ordinary attacks (aside from the bolt, which I dunno, and bolt sucks on WLP and is unchanged) and the ability (including the cooldown interactions, but not the stats)

Wizard Lord Phoenix's ability transforms the Wizard Monkey into a Lava Phoenix for 20 seconds which flies in a circle in the center of the screen, and attacks Bloons with flames that deal 20 [[damage]], have 50 [[pierce]], and an [[Attack Cooldown|attack cooldown]] of 0.1 seconds. It has a second attack which fires 8 meteors at a time, one in each direction. Meteors deal 50 damage with a pierce of 300, have an attack cooldown of 1 second.

This ability has a cooldown of 45 seconds and an initial cooldown of 15 seconds. The permanent phoenix remains while the ability is active, but Wizard Monkey stops all other attacks while transformed.

Wizard Lord Phoenix is the Wizard Monkey's path 2 tier 5 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It improves Wizard Monkey's ability to summon a much stronger phoenix, and grants a permanent phoenix sub-tower which is identical to that summoned by the tier 4 Summon Phoenix ability.

Wizard Lord Phoenix's ability transforms the Wizard Monkey into a Lava Phoenix for 20 seconds which flies in a circle in the center of the screen, and attacks Bloons with flames that deal 20 damage, have 50 pierce, and an attack cooldown of 0.1 seconds. It has a second attack which fires 8 meteors at a time, one in each direction. Meteors deal 50 damage with a pierce of 300, have an attack cooldown of 1 second. The Lava Phoenix has infinite range and ignores line-of-sight blockers. The Lava Phoenix's flames cannot damage Purple Bloons, but its meteors can damage all Bloon types. This ability has a cooldown of 45 seconds and an initial cooldown of 15 seconds. The permanent phoenix remains while the ability is active, but Wizard Monkey stops all other attacks while transformed.

This upgrade increases fireball explosion damage from 3 to 9, and increases wall of fire damage from 1 to 5. This upgrade allows the dragon's breath attack to fire 3 flames per shot instead of 2, increases its pierce from 3 to 15, increases DoT damage from 2 to 30, and increases DoT duration from 3s to 15s.

Mechanics

Fireball

The fireball attack hurls out three explosive fireballs at once in a 60-degree angle. Each fireball explosion does 9 damage (10 with 2-5-0) with 15 pierce (20 with 0-5-1), and has 14 blast radius, and pops all visible bloons except Black Bloon properties. The fireball projectile itself does 1 damage (2 with 2-5-0) and cannot damage Purples, and cannot explode if it hits them.

In the console version, which is based on an older version of the game (Version 32.0), this Wizard only shoots one high-damage fireball. Each of these fireballs do 27 damage and no damage bonus with 2-5-0 crosspath.

Wall of Fire

Like the Dragon's Breath, the blaze is deployed every 4.5s and continuously damages up to 20 bloons (+5 with 0-5-1) passing through its radius every 0.1s, with a pierce refresh cooldown of 0.1s, and lasts up to 5.5s (6.5s with 1-5-0), and can be re-positioned anywhere within range with 1-5-0 crosspath. However, the Wizard Lord Phoenix's blaze now deals 5 damage per tick.

The console version version has several differences:

  • 1-5-0 crosspath only allows the blaze to automatically deploy on top of nearby bloons according to targeting priority, with no other benefits.
  • 0-5-1 crosspath grants +4 pierce instead of +5
  • Base pierce of the blaze is 15 instead of 20

Dragon's Breath

Flames are shot every 0.135s (approximately 7.4x per second), but now are shot in groups of 3 per shot in a 15-degree angle and have 15 pierce (17 with 0-5-1). Additionally, its DoT damage is increased from 2 to 30 and DoT duration from 3s to 15s.

The console version version has one major difference: Dragon's Breath is a single attack that does 6 damage, has 50 base pierce, has no bonus DoT damage or duration, attacks every 0.125s, and has +10 range compared to the Wizard's base range.

Permanent Phoenix

The permanent Phoenix is acquired once the Wizard Lord Phoenix upgrade is bought. This Phoenix inherits all its statistics from the Summon Phoenix upgrade.

Abilities

Wizard Lord Phoenix ability

Wizard Lord Phoenix gains the Wizard Lord Phoenix ability, which replaces the old Summon Phoenix ability. Unlike most activated abilities, this ability always starts on a 15-second initial cooldown. It lasts for 20 seconds, and cannot be reactivated until duration ends.

When activated, the Wizard Lord Phoenix transforms into a Lava Phoenix, which constantly hurls a volley of 8 meteors that have huge pierce and damage, and spews flames at bloons according to the Wizard's targeting priority. It always flies in a clockwise circular pattern. After the duration ends, the Lava Phoenix reverts back to the Wizard. The permanent Phoenix remains unaffected by this ability.

Version 38.0

“
Middle path T4 Phoenix continues carrying rounds quite well for a long period of the game, as a light nerf here we’re taking away the free camo detection that Phoenix used to get, given the tower has a camo crosspath it could go for to properly inherit this onto the phoenix anyway.
— Update notes

Version 39.0

“
We set up for this Wall of Fire change quite a while ago, however finally it feels that Wall of Fire has cooled off enough to smooth out the curve a little more, granting it seamless uptime with crosspathing and a lower price tag. Summon Phoenix price is increasing more along with a larger reduction in cost to the Wizard Lord Phoenix, however Phoenix will now also be able to gain seeking frontal breath attacks with Guided Magic crosspathing.

Version 42.0

Wizard is feeling effective across the board with nice use cases across each path so there was hesitation about making changes. Nevertheless we felt there were important changes here with DoT in mind, so there’s now new scaling on the Dragon’s Breath attack improving damage over time on higher upgrades and a for-fun change to the projectile count assisting in spreading flames to many targets. We understand we are affecting current balance but it’s done in the name of fun and for Wizard fans.

  • Buff Dragon's Breath: Damage-over-time tick damage increased ― 1 → 10
  • Buff Dragon's Breath: now fires 3 projectiles
  • Nerf Dragon's Breath: damage reduced ― 6 → 2
  • Nerf Dragon's Breath: pierce reduced ― 50 → 15
  • Buff Phoenix: Base attack projectile speed increased ― 350 → 450

Version 43.0

“
As Fireball becomes very forgotten at higher tiers and is hard to even see at Dragon’s Breath, we’re improving the crosspath and adding even more projectiles at T3 for wider explosive coverage. [...] Wizard Lord Phoenix’s Wall of Fire hasn’t had any meaningful upgrade progression, so its damage is being increased.

[...] we can justify a QoL buff with Dragon’s Breath’s scaling adjusting to match more crosspath improvements, meaning it will now benefit [... from] bottom path’s projectile speed increase.
