General changes

Test Bloon icon in BTD6 This section is empty. You can help out by adding to it.

Towers

Dart Monkey

“ Dart Monkey at its core is an early game focus tower, so we added some projectile speed options to try and help with its tendency to miss faster Bloons. Spike-o-pult’s rate was also increased and damage type changed to shatter to be more versatile of a stepping stone in niche setups saving for Juggernaut
— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
3-X-X Spike-o-pult
  • Buff Damage type changed ― Sharp → Shatter
  • Buff Attack cooldown reduced ― 1.25s → 1.15s
    • Note: Juggernaut unchanged
X-X-2 Enhanced Eyesight
  • Buff Projectile speed increased ― 300 → 330
X-X-3 Crossbow
  • Buff Projectile speed increased ― 300 → 360
X-X-4 Sharp Shooter
  • Buff Projectile speed increased ― 300 → 400
    • Note: Crossbow Master unchanged at 450

Bomb Shooter

“ We’re really excited about the recent rise in Bomb fame, and we want to encourage this by buffing some of the detracting parts of Bomb Shooters. But larger groups of basic T3 Maulers are now performing far too well against everything when they are intended to be more of a MOAB Specialist. This change means little in the early game, but should pull these groups back a little in more higher round gameplay.
— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
3-X-X Really Big Bombs
  • Buff Damage increased ― 2 → 3
    • Note: Bloon Impact unchanged
X-3-X MOAB Mauler and further upgrades
  • Nerf Ceramic bonus reduced ― +5 → +4
X-4-X MOAB Assassin
  • Buff MOAB bonus increased ― +18 → +25
X-5-X MOAB Eliminator
  • Buff MOAB bonus increased ― +79 → +99

Tack Shooter

“ Inferno Ring has felt very outclassed for a long time, and more recently the tack shooter was reworked to give pierce on x2x which made the old 402 pierce crosspath not make as much sense anymore. We wanted to start work on both these issues together by reworking how Ring of Fire and Inferno Ring interact with crosspaths
— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
4-1-0 Ring of Fire + Long Range Tacks
5-1-0 Inferno Ring + Long Range Tacks
  • Buff Long Range Tacks now grants +10 pierce to Ring of Fire/Inferno Ring
4-2-0 Ring of Fire + Super Range Tacks
5-2-0 Inferno Ring + Super Range Tacks
  • Buff Super Range Tacks now grants +10 pierce to Ring of Fire/Inferno Ring
4-0-1 Ring of Fire + More Tacks
5-0-1 Inferno Ring + More Tacks
  • Nerf More Tacks no longer grants +10 pierce to Ring of Fire/Inferno Ring
4-0-2 Ring of Fire + Even More Tacks
5-0-2 Inferno Ring + Even More Tacks
  • Nerf Even More Tacks no longer grants +10 pierce to Ring of Fire/Inferno Ring
  • Buff Even More Tacks now increases damage by +1 for Ring of Fire/Inferno Ring
    • Note: Ring of Fire damage increased 3 to 4 and Inferno Ring damage increased 4 to 5

Ice Monkey

Glue Gunner

“ Many people seem to agree 5xx Glue is ‘good’, but simply outclassed (mainly by 5xx mortar at a similar price). This won’t completely fix that, we hope to work on making the earlier stepping stone tiers a little easier to use and provide the 520 crosspath with a better niche by making Bloon Solver benefit from all pierce twice as much (which x2x provides).
— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
3-X-X Bloon Dissolver
  • Buff Upgrade cost reduced ― $3,300 → $2,700
4-X-X Bloon Liquefier
  • Buff Upgrade cost reduced ― $7,000 → $6,500

5-1-0 The Bloon Solver + Bigger Globs
  • Nerf Pierce per projectile reduced ― 13 → 7
5-2-0 The Bloon Solver + Glue Splatter
  • Nerf Pierce per projectile reduced ― 16 → 11

Sniper Monkey

“ This tower felt like it’s strength too heavily required the xx2 upgrade, and that this harmed crosspath choices. So we increased the base attack rate while nerfing the increase from these upgrades. This is a slight overall buff
— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
0-0-0 base tower
1-X-0 Full Metal Jacket and further upgrades
X-1-0 Night Vision Goggles
X-2-0 Shrapnel Shot
X-3-0 Bouncing Bullet
X-4-0 Supply Drop
  • Buff Fire rate increased ― 2s → 1.59s
5-X-X Cripple MOAB
  • Stun/debuff duration increased for all MOAB-Class Bloons
    • Buff Duration for MOAB ― 6s → 7s
    • Buff Duration for BFB ― 3s → 6s
    • Buff Duration for ZOMG ― 1.5s → 3s
    • Buff Duration for DDT ― 1.5s → 4s
    • Buff Duration for BAD ― 0.25s → 0.75s
X-5-X Elite Sniper
  • Buff Fire rate increased ― 0.8s → 0.636s
    • Note: 051 increased from 0.52s to 0.4452s and 052 increased from 0.312s to 0.3116s
X-X-1 Fast Firing
  • Nerf Attack cooldown modifer reduced ― -35% → -30%
    • Buff Overall fire rate increased ― 1.3s → 1.113s (due to a buff to the base fire rate)
X-X-2 Even Faster Firing
  • Nerf Attack cooldown modifier reduced ― -40% → -30%
    • Buff Overall fire rate increased ― 0.78s → 0.7791s (due to a buff to the base fire rate)

  • Buff Fire rate increased ― 0.13s → 0.1298s
X-X-5 Elite Defender
  • Buff Fire rate increased ― 0.065s → 0.0649s

Monkey Sub

“ The cost efficiency of Sub Commander's +5 pierce favored low tiers more than we’d like. Fortunately other paths of sub don’t care so much about pierce, so as xx4 AP Darts gives its own large pierce increase we hope lowering the amount of this buff slightly will make driving to T4 more meaningful.
— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
X-X-5 Sub Commander
  • Nerf Sub Commander buff: pierce bonus reduced ― +5 → +4

Monkey Buccaneer

Monkey Ace

Heli Pilot

“ Pursuit Downdraft has felt like an overperformer for a very long time, but instead of outright nerfing it we increased crosspath potential for those who manually take control over their heli micro. On the opposite end of the spectrum, Pursuit Razor Rotors has underperformed due to distancing itself far too much, so we increased the range of this attack slightly.
— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
3-X-X Razor Rotors and further upgrades
  • Buff Razor Rotors: area increased ― 33 → 35

— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
0-3-1 Dragon's Breath + Intense Magic
0-4-1 Summon Phoenix + Intense Magic
5-0-1 Archmage + Intense Magic

  • Buff Dragon's Breath: pierce increased ― 50 → 52

  • Buff Upgrade cost reduced ― $1,800 → $1,700

Super Monkey

“ We were finally able to properly implement a popular suggestion for the Robo Monkey, and will be keeping an eye on it’s performance more closely in this update. In addition to this, Dark Knight’s reliance on Alchemist/Obyn to reach a reasonable pierce value made it too difficult to enjoy teleporting around using Dark Knight’s new ability so we tried to cut out that dependency with a sizable pierce increase.
— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
X-3-X Robo Monkey and further upgrades
  • Buff Middle path Super Monkeys are now able to independently set each arm to different target priorities, instead of fixed First+Last or Strong+Close targeting combinations
X-X-3 Dark Knight
  • Buff  Dark Knight pierce increased ― 3 → 5
    • Note: xx4 Dark Champion does not inherit the pierce buff from xx3

Alchemist

“ Alchemist is already widely used, but we thought of an interesting way to add some more crosspath value and wanted to take the chance to perform a small rebalance at the same time.
— Update notes 		”
Tiers Changes
3-X-X Berserker Brew
  • Nerf Berserker Brew: shots per brew reduced ― 30 → 25
