Bloonchipper (BTD5)

Line 20:

The '''Bloonchipper''' is a [[tower]] in ''[[Bloons TD 5 Deluxe]]'', the {{mobile version of|Bloons TD 5}}, and the {{console version of|Bloons TD 5}}. In ''BTD5 Deluxe'', it is unlocked at [[level|rank]] 21 and its tier 4 [[upgrade]]s are unlocked at rank 44, while in the mobile and console versions, it is unlocked at rank 22 and its tier 4 upgrades are unlocked at rank 46. It does not exist in the {{Flash version|Bloons TD 5}}.

The Bloonchipper ~~[[attack]]s by sucking~~ in [[Bloon]]s within its [[range]], holding them in place while shredding one of their [[Bloon layer|layers]], then ~~ejecting~~ the remaining Bloons back onto the track where they were sucked in from. It ~~sucks Bloons in every 0.3 seconds, but it~~ can only hold a certain number of Bloons at a time and cannot suck in more if it is full. [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD5)|Ceramic Bloon]]s count as three Bloons instead of one. In the mobile version and console version, it can hold up to 12 Bloons at a time, but it requires at least three empty slots to suck in a Ceramic Bloon. In ''Deluxe'', it can only hold up to 10 Bloons, but it can suck in a Ceramic Bloon if it only has one or two empty slots (i.e. it can still hold up to four Ceramic Bloons at a time, even though that counts as twelve Bloons).

The Bloonchipper deals 1 damage per second to each Bloon inside of it and ejects their children once their outer layers have been popped. Normally, most Bloons are held for one second since their outer layers only have one point of [[Bloon health|health]], while Ceramic Bloons are held for ten seconds. Bloons ~~cannot be targeted or hit by other towers while inside it, but they~~ will continue to take [[damage over time]] from towers such as [[Corrosive Glue (BTD5)|Corrosive Glue]] and [[Burny Stuff (BTD5)|Burny Stuff]], and they are ejected early if their outer layers are popped ~~from damage over time~~.

Otherwise, Bloons inside the Bloonchipper cannot be targeted or hit by other towers.

The Bloonchipper cannot suck in [[Lead Bloon (BTD5)|Lead Bloon]]s, [[Camo Bloon (BTD5)|Camo Bloon]]s, or [[MOAB-Class Bloon]]s without [[upgrade]]s and/or [[tower buff|buffs]]. It can be upgraded to shred Bloons more efficiently, shred Lead Bloons and MOAB-Class Bloons, or suck in all Bloons on-screen with its [[Activated Ability]].

*Base Bloonchippers and [[Super Wide Funnel (BTD5)|Super Wide Funnel]] are very valuable for being able to strip massive amounts of RBE for little cost.

*~~Unupgraded~~ Bloonchippers can strip a lot of RBE in the early game by eliminating all the Ceramic layers of round 40 and the first few [[MOAB (BTD5)|MOAB]]s.

**Base Bloonchippers can strip a lot of RBE in the early game by eliminating all the Ceramic layers of round 40 and the first few [[MOAB (BTD5)|MOAB]]s.

*Super Wide Funnel can remove an entire [[BFB (BTD5)|BFB]] layer in one shot and can solo a [[ZOMG (BTD5)|ZOMG]] layer and all the BFB layers of its children with enough time and track coverage.

**Super Wide Funnel can remove an entire [[BFB (BTD5)|BFB]] layer in one shot and can solo a [[ZOMG (BTD5)|ZOMG]] layer and all the BFB layers of its children with enough time and track coverage, making it ideal for the mid-late game and one of the best options for beating extremely high rounds.

** For this reason, the ~~Super Wide Funnel is~~ one of the best options for beating extremely high rounds.

*[[Triple Barrel (BTD5)|Triple Barrel]] is much less efficient than multiple Chippers, so it should never be considered.

*[[Supa-Vac (BTD5)|Supa-Vac]] is outclassed by towers that actually clear out Bloons and is much more expensive than other non-MOAB-Class stalling options like [[Bloon Impact (BTD5)|Bloon Impact]].
