Monkeys that can attack outside of their range, such as [[Sniper Monkey (BTD6)|Sniper Monkey]], [[Druid of the Jungle (BTD6)|Druid of the Jungle]], or [[Spike Factory (BTD6)|Spike Factory]], can benefit from the attack speed increase without causing any bloons to move faster. For monkeys like [[Heli Pilot (BTD6)|Heli Pilot]] or [[Rosalia (BTD6)|Rosalia]], only the “range” of the main tower is considered. Bloons will not gain increased movement speed within the monkey’s actual firing range.

The high attack speed increase is especially effective for [[Sentry Gun (BTD6)|Sentry Gun]] and above. Attack speed increases both the firing speed of sentries and the rate at which they are deployed, resulting in an overall sentry DPS increase of +38%, +56%, or +178% at Common, Rare, and Legendary, respectively.

[[Biggest Beacon]] has a negative interaction with this artifact, as range of the [[Monkey Village (BTD6)|Monkey Village]] will likely cover a significant portion of the track.
[[Biggest Beacon]] and [[Heightened Perception]] have a negative interaction with this Artifact, as range of [[Monkey Village (BTD6)|Monkey Villages]] or Primary Towers, specially Desperados, will likely cover a significant portion of the track. Increased movement speed can be a bigger issue for some towers than others. Towers with low projectile speed may miss attacks more often, and Bloons will be more spread out, causing towers that deal damage in an area to hit less Bloons with their attacks. [[Bomb Shooter (BTD6)|Bomb Shooter]] is an example of a tower affected by both of these issues.

As the campaign progresses the Bloon speed penalty becomes less relevant as better stalling options are available or by simply overwhelming Bloons with a critical amount of attack speed buffs.
