'''Sharp Shooter''' is the [[Dart Monkey (BTD6)|Dart Monkey]]'s path 3 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. With this upgrade, every 10th [[projectile]] shot by the Dart Monkey becomes a [[crit shot]] that deals 50 [[damage]] instead of the normal amount. Additionally, this upgrade increases its non-crit [[damage]] from 3 to 6, and increases its [[attack speed]] by +100% from every 0.95s to every 0.475s. It also increases its [[projectile speed]], but reduces its [[projectile lifespan]], so the maximum travel distance of its projectiles remains about the same.

Sharp Shooter is an okay tower for the late early-game and early mid-game. Its crit shots do high damage, allowing it to break down blimps fairly well for its cost and occasionally one-shot {{BTD6|Ceramic Bloon}}. However, it suffers from low pierce with 0-2-4 and from unreliability with 2-0-4, preventing it from being a top-tier option at its price range. Additionally, because the Sharp Shooter has 6 damage and low pierce, it struggles versus mid-game Ceramics if it cannot precisely chip them into Blacks and Whites, due to the potential to create fast-moving Yellow and Pink clumps, and buffing its damage to exactly 7 damage is far worse than not having external damage buffs (e.g. [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]]).
