This attack cannot damage Purple Bloons. The Transforming Tonic ability has a cooldown of 60 seconds and an initial cooldown of 20 seconds.

Concoction explosion: ZOMGs and DDTs now consume +3 pierce
Concoction explosion: BADs now consume +9 pierce

“
While the middle path T5 gets some use, T4 Transforming Tonic does not perform well for the low pierce amount so pierce has been increased.

Transformed Alchemist: Pierce increased ― 4 → 6
Unstable Concoction: Explosion damage no longer scales with Freeplay or HP modifiers in the Challenge Editor (undocumented)
Unstable Concoction: Explosion damage for fortified blimps is the same as their unfortified counterparts (bug)
Concoction explosion: Now deals double damage to Fortified Bloons (bug fix)
Base potion attack: no longer has single-layer damage (undocumented)
“
Transforming Tonic has always had a large struggle with pierce, rather than directly throwing onto the base pierce we have added crosspathing pierce & rate benefits for transformation enjoyers to now choose between.

Monster: pierce increased ― 6 → 9
- 0-4-1, 0-4-2
Monster: Attack cooldown reduced ― 0.03s → 0.024s (attack speed increased by 25%)
“
Transforming Tonic has been compared to being a worse but more expensive Turbo Charge, and that seems like a fair complaint. T5 has good niche uses, but T4 isn't worth the cost right now so we’re adding more juice to the tonic.

Monster laser: damage increased ― 2 → 3
- Note: Does not affect x-5-x mini monsters
“
Alchemist Transforming Tonic is in a weird spot with the transformation unable to attack through walls when the base alchemist is able to. Also with this, including a QoL fix for the T5 that currently prevents transformed towers from functioning with target priority.

Transformed alchemist can now ignore line of sight
Alchemist x4x/x5x no longer loses the ability to fire through obstacles when crosspathed (bug fix)
“
Alchemist 220 stands out a little too effectively in the crosspath efficiency of Acidic Mixture Dip uptime combined with the reduced forced downtime at 320 and so is being reduced. Total Transformation alchemist when transformed have never been allowing damage to distribute to children layers of any targets, while this is an option we can use as an intended balance lever - we have instead decided to turn this blocker off as it isn't one we have used elsewhere and has made these upgrades perform far weaker against regular Bloons comparatively to Ceramic & MOAB-class due to damage buffs that have been given to transformed alchemists over time.

Acidic Mixture Dip: Crosspath bonus to Acidic Mixture Dip buff reduced ― +3 → +2

Currently 031 is the only crosspath that realistically does anything for Unstable Concoction.

- 1-4-0, 2-4-0
Larger potions grants +1 pierce to Concoction ― 3 → 4
“
Middle path alchemists have complicated use cases that don’t bring enough of a payoff for the effort so the price is being reduced.
