Introduced Version 49.0

What In Tarnation is a type of Artifact in the Rogue Legends DLC for Bloons TD 6, introduced in version 49.0. When active, Tier 2 and above Desperados have a 10% chance to apply status effects to Bloons after damaging them. The specific effect depends on the upgrade path, crosspathed Desperados can apply both applicable effects:

  • Path 1: Stun Bloons for 1/2/4 seconds, affects 9 layers.
  • Path 2: Freeze Bloons for 1/2/4 seconds, affects 9 layers.
  • Path 3: Glue Bloons for 2/4/8 seconds, which halves their speed and has a glue level of 0, affects all layers.

None of the effects can affect MOAB-Class Bloons.

It also provides a Desperado to the party (1-0-1, 1-0-2, 0-0-2) depending on the Artifact rarity.

Tips

This section was last updated for: version 54.2
  • One of the most useless but not detrimental Artifacts. Due its low chance of applying effects, the inability to affect MOAB-Class Bloons, and Desperado receiving less from speed buffs, this Artifact does not provide a useful or reliable way to stall Bloons.
  • This Artifact should only be obtained if the player wishes to add a Desperado to the Party and afterwards it can be sold at a Merchant without consequences.
  • Players seeking Deadeye should choose other options unless it's the Legendary version.
