Farwind Seer

Farwind Seer

True mastery of the wind knows no bounds. The arrow's sting grows deadlier the further the air currents reach.

← Galesage

Farwind Seer is the Skywarden's path 1 tier 5 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. This upgrade increases the base damage of the Skywarden's arrows to 5 and further increases damage based on attack range. Arrow damage is increased by +1 when reaching 70 range and +1 for every 5 units of range above that, capping at +20 damage. Without any other range buffs, switching the Farwind Seer to long-range mode gives +2 damage, for a total of 7. This upgrade also causes the Skywarden to spawn 4 additional arrows instead of 2 when hitting a Bloon with the 2nd combo effect activated.

With Icebore, the bonus Frozen damage increases to +5, but this does not scale with the Farwind Seer's range-to-damage scaling.

Strategy

This section was last updated for: version 56.3

To maximise the damage this tower deals, its range must be increased as much as possible. Range can be increased using Aerial Attunement up to 5 times, Berserker Brew, Monkey Village, the Take Aim ability from Deadeye or Bounty Hunter (with the latter giving significantly more range), and buffs from Obyn, Geraldo, or Etienne. Gerry's Fire benefits massively from this tower's damage scaling as well.

Farwind Seer excels against MOAB-Class Bloons, but struggles against Ceramic Bloons if they're not fully popped in a single hit. If a round is causing trouble because Ceramics are getting popped into Reds or Blues, it may be worth giving this tower a Jar of Pickles or switching to its long-range mode.

The 5-0-2 crosspath (Icebore) is usually preferred for the piercing capabilities, with 5-0-1 (Shatterpoint) being sufficient if no freezing effects are present. 5-1-0 (Storm's Pulse) is currently non-functional for the speed boost due to a bug, and 5-2-0 (Thundering Arc) can sometimes be a downgrade due to not piercing in a straight line, despite ignoring obstacles and granting extra pierce and explosion radius based on arrow travel distance.
