Elite Sniper (BTD6)

Line 37:

Elite Sniper is good for general gameplay, performing well throughout the mid-game while generating solid amounts of income. In [[CHIMPS]], it is significantly weakened, but it remains serviceable when used in a Sniper spam strategy.

Elite Sniper on its own is a cleanup tower specializing against groups of Bloons, with its high attack speed and high pierce making it perform well in this role. Its cleanup capability falls off somewhat against {{B|Super Ceramic Bloon~~|BTD6~~}}s but remains decent. However, its weak single-target damage makes it generally not recommended for standalone use in CHIMPS. 0-5-2 is the recommended crosspath for Elite Sniper, solidifying its cleanup role due to increased attack speed enhancing its reliability and synergizing better with {{B|Berserker Brew~~|BTD6~~}}, compared to 2-5-0 which is more self-sufficient but much less reliable on simultaneous-lane maps.

There are three Sniper spam strategies commonly used with Elite Sniper: 0-2-5 {{B|Elite Defender~~|BTD6~~}} + {{B|Full Auto Rifle~~|BTD6~~}}s + {{B|Permanent Brew~~|BTD6~~}}, [[Axis of Havoc]], and 2-0-5 {{B|Elite Defender~~|BTD6~~}} + {{B|Bouncing Bullet~~|BTD6~~}}s. Axis of Havoc can be used on all maps, the former is useful on maps with placements for the Sniper to shoot Bloons while they travel towards it (such as [[Infernal]] (right island) and [[Muddy Puddles]] (bottom-middle section)), while the latter is useful on maps without such placements.
