Zig Then Zag is a type of Artifact in the Rogue Legends DLC for Bloons TD 6. It increases the attack speed of Military Monkeys, but in exchange they move slower in a Zig Zag pattern, making them more likely to miss their targets. The Common version of the artifact reduces the attack cooldown by 11%, Rare reduces 15% and Legendary 30%, resulting in an attack speed increase of 12%, 18% and 43%, respectively. Also projectiles can move up to 15 units from a straight line at a speed of 4 units/s and their speed is reduced 20%.
Tips
[edit | edit source]This section was last updated for: version 56.3
- For the most part, the zigzag movement can be ignored, as most Military Monkeys have a way to bypass or counteract the zigzag motion and usually don't require straight lines to optimize their shots. Note that some class-buffed towers do take advantage of straight lines, such as Sharp Shooter. Some other Artifacts, such as BB Gatling Gun, also discourage reliance on straight lines.
- 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.
