In ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'' and ''[[Bloons TD Battles 2]]'', the Tack Shooter is classified as a [[Primary]] tower. The first path revolves around maximized attack speed and high damage, evolving into a fiery theme starting from the [[Hot Shots]] upgrade, replacing the role that [[Tack Sprayer]] has in ''BTD5''. The second path is the pierce-and-range hybrid. The third path relegates to maximizing the amount of projectiles per second, with additional focus on single-target damage, including the Tack Sprayer upgrade. In ''BTD6'', it has a Paragon called the [[Crucible of Steel and Flame]]. | In ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'' and ''[[Bloons TD Battles 2]]'', the Tack Shooter is classified as a [[Primary]] tower.

The base Tack Shooter is a pink cylindrical turret that has 8 barrels equally spaced around its body, with a crossed two-tack emblem on its lid, and reinforced by thick metallic or metal-like fortifications for its base and above the barrels. Each barrel is cylindrical and appear to be made of steel, all supported by each short barrel sleeve from the Tack Shooter's body. | |||

This monkey is not visible unless it peeks out of the cover of the Tack Shooter, revealing its upper body at most. Clothes are absent from the basic Tack Monkey. However, the Tack Monkeys for the [[Ring of Fire]] and [[Inferno Ring]] wear fire insulant suits, as seen in ''Battles 2''. The [[Crucible of Steel and Flame]]'s Tack Monkey is briefly visible when jumping into its machine after creating that Paragon, with it additionally being displayed in the Paragon's portrait. | ||
