===Tackagon===
Crucible of Steel and Flame is a cheap Paragon that is overall weaker than the Tack Shooters that are merged, given its lower receptiveness to buffs, huge map dependency, and its camo detection is even less available. The only thing it has better than them is its activated abilities, moreso the Meteor Explosion. It's not a bad Paragon, as it does decent damage when Bloons are within range of all its spinning blades, but still considered the worst of Paragons due to its many weaknesses. For Bosses, it is useless versus [[Phayze]] even with [[Ascended Shadow]]'s camo detection, but still a strong Paragon against [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]].
Higher degrees are helpful if wanting to use it for main damage. Degree 20 and 40 are usually enough most of the time against Bosses, as the Crucible is mostly used for complementary DPS or as a transition Paragon for T3 Bosses.
Most of the Crucible's pops come from [[Inferno Ring (BTD6)|Inferno Ring]], [[The Tack Zone (BTD6)|The Tack Zone]], and many 2-0-4 [[Overdrive (BTD6)|Overdrive]]s, plus [[Super Maelstrom (BTD6)|Super Maelstrom]] for cleanup. Versus Bosses, keep the Tacks if saving up for Crucible on the next Boss tier. For cheapest T2 and T3 crosspaths for the most tiers, use 0-2-2 and 0-2-3, and for the most expensive then use 4-2-0 [[Ring of Fire (BTD6)|Ring of Fire]]. However, 2-0-4 Overdrives do significant single-target DPS and are very buffable.<!--something to explain why 2-0-4 is preferrable for if go transition to paragon than is 4-2-0, though use 4-2-0 for max money sacs without slider-->

something powerful when time well with metamorphosis big burst, minor burst firesplode, use mana suction if wanna get max uptime for metamorphsis or something.
With proper timing and high Mana, the Magus Perfectus offers extreme DPS with its Arcane Metamorphosis ability and especially when buffed with [[Master Builder]]. Elsewhere, the Magus Perfectus offers only average damage for its high cost,<!--still way better than most Paragons, just not stuff like Doomship or something--> and requires careful management of its Mana to achieve high enough DPS through its normal attacks and abilities. Make sure to use Drain Beam when the Bloons are slow, and turn it off for a burst of damage if needed. When getting ready for abilities, go for high Mana to maximize damage (long duration for Arcane Metamorphosis, more important than extra Undead ZOMGs from Phoenix Rebirth). Versus Bosses, its best matchup is [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]], due to its slow speed and complete lack of invulnerability, and its worst matchup is [[Blastapopoulos (BTD6)|Blastapopoulos]], which slows its abilities and can quickly reach Overheat.
 
Higher degrees are important for Magus Perfectus, as its main strength comes from the Arcane Metamorphosis, which has a long cooldown, and versus Bosses the extra degrees for it will often be more worth it than buying a cheap Paragon alongside due to the bonus Boss damage every 20 degrees. Also, a faster cooldown with higher degrees means fewer rounds may be needed to cool off the Arcane Metamorphosis before the Boss begins, or during the Boss to allow extra usages.
 
For maximizing pops, all Tier 5 Wizards can be used, particularly the [[Archmage (BTD6)|Archmage]], which could be used for previous Boss tiers to retain pops. For cheapest T2 and T3 crosspaths for the most tiers, use 2-0-2 and 3-0-2, and for the most expensive use 4-2-0 [[Arcane Spike (BTD6)|Arcane Spike]]s. 2-4-0 [[Summon Phoenix (BTD6)|Summon Phoenix]] could be used to anti-stall without needing to be close to the entrances.


something buildup is not so synergetic for pops. what about the cheap version with t2s and t3s.
