For all Tier 4 and above upgrades and Level 15+ Heroes, Essence of Dreadbloon is an extremely powerful synergizing artifact when combined with other artifacts that are category-specific. For example, with [[Ceramic Chunker]], all towers (instead of just Primary) deal extra damage to ceramics. Another powerful combination is with [[The Unspoken Heroes]], as any fast attacking tower with many projectiles such as a [[Aircraft Carrier (BTD6)|Aircraft Carrier]] can rack up dozens of Crits at once. However, this category-synergizing effect also enables category-specific downsides to all towers. For any subsequent artifacts, choose artifacts that have minimal of these downsides. If the player is only relying on Tier 4 or higher Towers for their campaign, it is not recommended to pick up [[Essence Of Bloonarius]] as it will reduce the [[attack speed]] of such towers, otherwise, players must consider the tradeoff of having more powerful Tier 3 or lower towers in comparison to the attack cooldown increase.
Essence of Dreadbloon is the most powerful Artifact in late stages of a ''Rogue Legends'' campaign as the ability to use category specific Artifacts on all Tier 4 and above upgrades and Level 15+ Heroes creates a  snowball effect when the different buffs start stacking with each other, making virtually any tower capable of handling the entire defense by their own.
 
Examples of powerful combination of this Artifact include [[Sticky Situation (Artifact)|Sticky Situation]] which allows a single Glue Gunner to double the entire DPS of the setup, [[Critical Success]] grants Crit chances to all Towers, and Artifacts like Quickening, Inspiration, Precision, [[Heightened Perception]], [[Discord]], [[Overwhelming Synergy]], [[Squadron Together Strong]], [[Pure Damage]], [[Primary Specialist|Primary]] and [[Support Specialist]] provide the largest raw increases to stats. However, this category-synergizing effect also enables category-specific downsides to all Towers like increased upgrade costs from Overwhelming Synergy or Squadron Together Strong. For any subsequent artifacts, choose artifacts that have minimal of these downsides until the player reaches a critical mass of Artifacts that makes the downsides irrelevant.
