Symphonic Resonance ~~allows~~ stalling of ~~smaller blimps into a focused area, which also aids~~ low-range, radial towers ~~to focus on the~~ tranced blimps. However, ever since removing the BFB pull, the Symphonic Resonance's only distinct values compared to [[Giant Condor]], a similar blimp-repositioning tower, is its effectiveness at stalling multiple DDTs at once, and reliably move them to the range of other DDT supports such as [[Embrittlement (BTD6)|Embrittlement]]. The improved max instant DoT ~~trigger~~ damage and lack of Ceramic penalty are less significant, though the latter helps cement its late-game by not having too much pierce clogged by Super Ceramics.

The improved max instant DoT detonation damage and lack of Ceramic penalty are less significant, though the latter helps cement its late-game by not having too much pierce clogged by Super Ceramics. Since tranced Bloons can be re-targeted by the trance, each trance essentially has a maximum capacity; at base pierce, it can only pull up to 3 DDTs or 4 MOABs.

~~Top crosspath is often~~ preferred ~~for~~ the ~~faster pickup rate~~, ~~which improves consistency against DDTs~~. ~~The extra~~ +2 pierce from 0-1-4 ~~does allow more pickup at once, but it~~'s ~~not much of a bonus otherwise~~. 0-2-4 is no different from 0-1-4 other than larger freezing tridents.

Path 1's benefits are preferred if revolving around the DoT detonation, but otherwise the Symphonic Resonance's crosspathing benefits are minor. +2 pierce from [[Sharper Prongs]] alone is not enough to let Symphonic Resonance pull in an extra blimp (as its pierce cannot be overflown), but does reduce wastage on smaller Bloons; with other pierce buffs as well (e.g. [[Admiral Brickell (BTD6)|Admiral Brickell]]'s Level 8+ passive pierce buff), the 0-1-4 crosspath's benefits are worth it over 2-0-4. 0-2-4 is no different from 0-1-4 other than larger freezing tridents.
