Hydra Rocket Pods (BMC): Difference between revisions

Line 37:

Hydra Rocket Pods is a much better upgrade in the multiplatform version compared to the [[Bloons TD 5 (Flash)|Flash version]] due to the aforementioned pierce-based explosion duplication bug, which allows it to effortlessly handle large Bloon cluster rounds on its own, and with Bloons Monkey City's reduced MOAB health, can also eliminate hordes of lower tier MOAB-Class Bloons. This scales into the Bloon Area Denial System well and functions as a win condition for tile captures. To increase its explosions per missile, get Hydra near [[Monkey Fort (BMC)|Monkey Fort]], as well as investing in Dartling's pierce MK (Ranks 3, 8, 13).

Without the bug, it is ~~simply~~ overpriced in both its research and in-game cost~~. For early cities~~, ~~other smaller Bloon cleanup towers perform its function better, such as~~ [[~~Operation: Dart Storm~~ (BMC)|~~Operation: Dart Storm~~]] or [[~~Glaive Ricochet (BMC)|Glaive Ricochet~~]]~~, though it can be used~~ to ~~decent effect on some Monkey Teams that include Dartling~~.

Without the bug, it is slightly overpriced in both its research and in-game cost, but can still be useful on [[Monkey Teams (BMC)|Monkey Teams]] with Dartling for proper ceramic cleanup and packed [[MOAB-Class Bloon]]s. This upgrade requires heavy aiming and proper positioning to ensure the explosion hits the correct target.

It is always recommended to buy [[Faster Barrel Spin (BMC)|Faster Barrel Spin]] to maximize rockets.

It is always recommended to buy [[Faster Barrel Spin (BMC)|Faster Barrel Spin]] to maximize the amount of rockets fired.
