For the most part, the zigzag movement can be ignored. [[Sniper Monkey (BTD6)|Sniper Monkey]], [[Mortar Monkey (BTD6)|Mortars]], and [[Heli Pilot (BTD6)|Heli Pilots]] (to a lesser extent) can effectively ignore both the zigzag movement and projectile speed penalties due to how the former two attack, and how close they usually are for the latter.

For the most part, the zigzag movement can be ignored. Sniper Monkey, Mortars, and Heli Pilots (to a lesser extent) can effectively ignore both the zigzag movement and projectile speed penalties due to how the former two attack, and how close they usually are for the latter. However caution is advised if it is used in combination with Discord and/or BB Gatling Gun on Dartling Gunners, Monkey Subs or Monkey Buccaneer as the combined effects can make their projectiles outright miss the Bloons most of the time. As the game progresses, the drawback of the Artifact is lessened thanks to the presence of MOAB-Class Bloons and their larger hitboxes.
