The Desperado (plural Desperados)[2] is a Wild West-themed monkey in Bloons TD 6. It was introduced 7 years into BTD6's life as a new Primary Monkey. Their abilities revolve around his three weapon types: the pistol, the rifle, and the shotgun. The pistol is a flexible two shot burst that all Desperados have, the rifle is a long range straight line piercing attack, while the shotgun releases bursts of shrapnel to hit other Bloons nearby. The tower currently has no Paragon.

Gameplay

Teaser screenshot[3]

The Desperado is a Primary tower that attacks with a pistol, which fires two rounds each time it attacks. It can be upgraded to replace its pistol with a revolver that fires more rounds per shot, use a rifle to attack Bloons out of range of its pistol, or use a shotgun to attack Bloons close to it.

Physical appearance

Desperados are monkeys with tan fur, grey skin, and brown eyes. The basic Desperado wears a brown cowboy hat, a red bandanna around its neck, and a belt with a holster for its pistol. It has an upgrade that changes its hat to a ten-gallon hat with a green band.

Lore

  • Most Desperadoes have a hobby that involves sitting around a campfire while eating beans and playing Buckaroo.[4]
  • The Desperado is not a cowboy, and doesn't use a lasso.[5]
  • Desperadoes own many tamed horses.[6]

    What is Desperado's favorite toy?
    Most desperadoes sit around the campfire eating beans, playing Buckaroo!

    why doesn't the desperado have a lasso????
    The Lasso is a tool of a Cowboy, but Desperado is not a Cowboy. They are not herding cows, so have no need for one!

    Outside of battle do Desperado Monkey’s have tamed horse companions? Have they also tamed other creatures to Ride? Like maybe the Beast Handler creatures?
    They have tamed many horses, their favourite animal to bond with and ride! We are unsure if that is for the aesthetic or just stopping while you're ahead!
