Full Metal Jacket (BTD6): Difference between revisions

Line 33:

Full Metal Jacket is a versatile early-game tower, chipping away higher-tier Bloons and reliably dealing with the Leads of Rounds 28 and 30 on nearly all maps. However, more lead-popping defense is needed for Rounds 37 and 38 on shorter maps. The 1-1-0 Sniper Monkey is a very cheap option to pop early [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo]] Leads, in particular those in [[Alternate Bloons Rounds]]. 1-2-0 Sniper Monkey's shrapnel helps to break apart groups of Bloons, especially multiple Lead Bloons, but is unreliable for precise damage and falls off when not shooting Bloons heads-on.

For crosspathing purposes, Full Metal Jacket is recommended for all bottom-path Sniper Monkeys against [[Boss Bloon]]s (except [[Phayze]]) and when they cannot be placed so that Bloons mostly travel facing them (in which case shrapnel functions worse). If crosspathing with Full Metal Jacket, it is strongly recommended to crosspath further by purchasing {{B|Large Calibre|BTD6}}. Middle-path Snipers do benefit from the extra damage and lead-popping of all its shots, but is the sub-par crosspath in the presence of external buffs, as the top crosspath prevents them from receiving [[Geraldo (BTD6)|Geraldo]]'s [[Sharpening Stone]], and the bottom crosspath's attack speed bonuses provide a much stronger ~~synergy~~ with ~~those~~ buffs.
