Armor Piercing Darts is a decent T4 for carrying the mid-game when paired with [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]], helping save up for more effective T5's later on. Its relatively high MOAB damage, improved base pierce, and multiple projectiles improve its reliability at damaging bloons quickly. However, it still has low base damage to non-blimps despite its moderate attack speed.

Armor Piercing Darts is a fair candidate for [[Sub Commander (BTD6)|Sub Commander]] armies on maps that utilize [[Advanced Intel (BTD6)|Advanced Intel]] for long-ranged coverage, ~~however~~ the 0-3-2 [[Ballistic Missile (BTD6)|Ballistic Missile]] is usually preferred for better localized damage.

The best crosspath for Armor Piercing Darts is Advanced Intel, which allows targeting of bloons further around the map and greater synergy with external buffs. However, this crosspath disrupts strategies that rely on stalling bloons or dealing precise damage to groups of bloons. 0-1-4 and 0-2-4's granting of increased pierce within local range and ability to affect visible DDTs are not as significant.
