The Blazing Sun: Difference between revisions

==Strategy==

As a very cheap tier 5, the Blazing Sun serves a similar role to the 2-0-5 [[Elite Defender (BTD6)|Elite Defender]], both towers lacking pierce with high attack speed and damage. Comparatively, it trades off unlimited range of a Sniper for more DPS and the capability to one-shot [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramic Bloon]]s before round 81, allowing the player to easily save up to an expensive tier 5. As a result, it excels at carrying the mid-game<!--2-0-5 edef can't just clean up--> and reaching higher rounds on maps that it fits on. However, it falls off starting from round 81, due to Super Ceramics blocking multiple shots. As such, cleanup towers should be used alongside it, such as [[Etienne (BTD6)|Etienne]] for the UCAV to assist with cleanup and grouped popping power, or [[The Bloon Solver (BTD6)|The Bloon Solver]] for its immense Ceramic Bloon stopping power. On later rounds, dense groups of blimps become a problem for The Blazing Sun, but it can provide solid supporting fire for rounds with high health single targets, such as 97 or 100. Its damage-over-time is high enough to consider pairing the upgrade with [[The Final Harmonic]] to amplify its effect and stall groups of BFBs. Like with all Desperados, [[Captain Churchill (BTD6)|Captain Churchill]] is a strong pick to cover its weaknesses.
