Shell Shock is the Mortar Monkey's path 1 tier 3 upgrade in Bloons TD Battles 2. Shell Shock increases its blast radius by 6 (30 to 36) and creates additional explosions: a stunning blast that affects Bloons in a small area, and a shockwave that deals damage in a wider radius. The shockwave deals 1 damage (but cannot damage multiple layers, even if given damage buffs) within 57 radius, but can not hit Bloons within 50% of its blast radius, or DDTs. The stunning blast has 19 radius and stuns Bloons for 0.4 seconds except for Black and Zebra Bloons.
With the Burny Stuff crosspath Shell Shock gains the following improvements:
- +1 damage to burn (from 1 to 2)
- Tick rate increased from 1.4 seconds to 0.625 seconds, but duration decreased from 4.2 seconds to 1.875 seconds

Mortar Monkey has not really been affected by any recent nerfs, still remaining very strong and only seeing a drop in usage due to Etienne offering an exciting alternative. Therefore we think that it’s justified to make some significant nerfs to Mortar’s early game, as it’s been a top tier tower for quite a few updates now.

Pierce reduced ― 45 → 40

Mortar Monkey still excels in the current meta. We have reduced its blast radius, but increased (and fixed) the buff that Jones and Bones give it so that it remains similarly effective when paired with either of these heroes.

Blast radius reduced ― 38 units → 35.2 units
Shockwave: stun radius reduced ― 19 units → 17.6 units
Shockwave: outer radius reduced ― 57 units → 52.8 units
“
The randomness of the Mortar has never been popular and the xx1 upgrade has often felt like a tax to remove RNG than an upgrade in its own right. The new Dynamic Targeting upgrade will hopefully give interesting crosspath options to the other upgrades, allowing the Mortar to easily focus fire on strong MOABs or maximise the impact of stunning by automatically aiming for the densest cluster of bloons. Manual targeting will likely still remain the most consistent option for effects like Signal Flare and Burny Stuff that just want to hit every bloon once.

Mortar spread reduced ― 18 → 8
Main blast: Pierce increased ― 40 → 45
“
Mortar has been a go-to de-camo option but it was not getting used for much else. This should hopeful make its other paths keep up
