Version 23.0

“

As our most recently added tower we are very happy with all the excitement surrounding this beloved monkey tower and the general middleground play position. We’re happy enough with its time in the wild to make some first impression changes here which we hope you’ll continue to enjoy. — Update notes

”

•  Overall cost reduced by $200 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
•  Now applies knockback to non-MOAB-Class Bloons

Version 24.0

“

Bloon Exclusion Zone’s price has as well been reduced slightly for edge case balance. — Update notes

”

•  Upgrade cost reduced ― $60,000 → $58,000
  •  Overall cost reduced by $2,150 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)

Version 25.0

•  Overall cost reduced by $400 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)

Version 28.0

“

Even though we like the theme of the slow hitting upgrade, Buckshot has struggled to live up to its potential, so attack speed has been further increased through all tiers. — Update notes

”

•  Attack cooldown reduced ― 1.8s → 1.5s (attack speed increased by 20%)

Version 29.0

“

The bottom path Bloon Exclusion Zone on the Dartling has had a lot of talk about damage types, with points raised on the viability here due to the high price. It did recently get a strong buff from the T3 up, but in order to work more into other synergies we have decided to finally do a damage type change here as well, starting from early on in the path. — Update notes

”

•  Damage Type changed ― Sharp → Shatter

Version 30.0

1-0-5, 2-0-5

•  Focus Firing crosspath grants +25% distance to projectiles

Version 33.0

“

Focused Firing’s distance bonus on 203 due to how it is setup with projectile speed dropoff was a bit less than this written ‘25%’ realistically closer to 18.75%, so this number has been increased enough to give it roughly a true 30% increase in distance. — Update notes

”

1-0-5, 2-0-5

•  Focused Firing distance bonus ― 25% → 40%
  • Note: Patch notes lists 203 but this is a typo

Version 34.0

“

BADS on the bottom currently feels like it brings far too much power to carry the midgame for cheap so price is being shifted around from the T5 down into the T4. — Update notes

”

•  Upgrade cost reduced ― $58,000 → $54,000
  •  Overall cost is unchanged (due to cost changes for previous tiers)

Version 35.0

“

While admittedly difficult to handle at T3, the recent changes made to attempt to give Buckshot an easier growth into BADS overall backfired and were a failure. Looking back, the difficult T3 required attention but was still not bad if used correctly and the improved handling at T4 was far worth this effort in the end. That seemed fine enough before and we don't like how it has ended up so walking those changes back. We have to admit when we miss and thanks for continued discussion on bottom path. — Update notes

”

•  Upgrade cost increased ― $54,000 → $58,000
  •  Overall cost is unchanged (due to cost changes for previous tiers)

Version 38.0

“

We weren’t quite ever able to take Laser Shock in the direction we initially hoped to, and due to this the 203 crosspath has fallen behind in value and overall use, so we are improving some crosspath values here to fix up damage with bottom path Buckshocks — Update notes

”

2-0-5

•  Laser Shock: Bonus damage to shocked Bloons increased ― +1 → +6
•  Laser Shock: DoT damage increased ― 1 → 6

Version 44.0

“

Faster Swivel while a nice quality of life doesn’t add any power so also ends up difficult to justify on its own, we don’t expect this will change that too much but even faster swiveling should be much nicer for when you do desperately need that accuracy. — Update notes

”

•  Turn rate increased ― 360 → 440

Version 54.0

“

Buckshot is statted high in theory but in practice requires far too much babysitting, since higher tiers are already heavy hitters we’re boosting up the base rate for the path with a damage tradeoff to make it less of a chore to use. — Update notes

”

•  Overall cost reduced by $400 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
•  Damage decreased ― 8 → 6
•  Attack cooldown reduced ― 1.5s → 1.2s (attack speed increased by 25%)
  • Notes: Attack interval decreased ― 0.25s → 0.2s
  • Stacks with 0-2-5 Faster Barrel Spin crosspath:
    • Attack cooldown ― 0.99s → 0.792s
    • Attack interval ― 0.2475s → 0.198s

2-0-5

•  Laser Shock: Damage per tick over time reduced ― 6 → 4
•  Laser Shock: Bonus damage to shocked Bloons decreased ― +6 → +4
