Version 1.0.6

Levels	Changes
10+	Artillery Fire: duration increased ― 5s → 8s

Version 4.1

“

Biker Bones’ new more general level 8 buff is an interesting one that we’re pleased to see has been effectively used with towers such as Spike Factory. We’re slightly increasing the buff to hopefully see more of this, as well as making the same changes to the Mortar buff which Striker Jones received.
— Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
7+	Mortar Monkey blast radius buff increased ― +15% → +25%
8+	Pierce buff increased ― +25% → +30%

Version 4.3

“

The dense bloon targeting we added for Mortar in this update felt like it would be a good fit for Biker Bones as well, allowing him to affect more bloons with the stun and fire effects of his ability and further distinguish him from Striker Jones.
— Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
3+	Concussive shot now aims at densest area, instead of the strongest bloon.  Concussive shot blast radius ― 27 → 40  Concussive shot pierce ― 48 → 72

Version 4.7

“

Similar to Striker Jones, Biker Bones relied too heavily on Bomb and Mortar to be useful and Striker was the better choice if you wanted to use those towers. With that in mind, we are reworking Bones so he leans much harder into the “Biker” part and synergises with vehicle towers, specifically Heli Pilot and Monkey Ace. As these towers do not specialise in explosive damage, there was no need for Biker to bypass explosive immunities so those upgrades have been replaced. In addition, Concussive Blast now targets the strongest bloon again. We were hoping the dense targeting would differentiate Biker from Striker but in practice it made the ability much less reliable and therefore worse.

”

Levels	Changes
3+	Concussive Fire: now targets Strong instead of Dense
4+	Attack speed buff: now applies to Heli Pilots, Monkey Aces, and Biker Bones himself instead of Bomb Shooters and Mortar Monkeys
5+	Replaced the Black Bloon debuff with a +10% range and pierce increase to Biker Bones
7+	Replaced the blast radius buff for Mortar Monkeys with a flame trail buff for Monkey Aces and Heli Pilots
10+	Artillery Fire: now applies to Heli Pilots, Monkey Aces, and Biker Bones himself instead of Bomb Shooters and Mortar Monkeys
18+	Attack speed buff: now applies to Heli Pilots, Monkey Aces, and Biker Bones himself instead of Bomb Shooters and Mortar Monkeys
19+	Replaced the Black Bloon debuff with a 10% range and pierce buff to all towers within Biker Bones' range except himself
20	Artillery Fire: now applies to Heli Pilots, Monkey Aces, and Biker Bones himself instead of Bomb Shooters and Mortar Monkeys

Version 4.7 (OTA update 1)

•  Biker Bones no longer causes Bomber Ace to drop too many bombs (bug fix)

Version 4.10

“

With the synergy between Biker and ace struggling against early game black bloons we thought that adding the vulnerability would be a good addition to help against early game rushes
— Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
5–18	Now causes all explosion damage sources to ignore Black Bloon properties 50% of the time again
19+	Now causes all explosion damage sources to always ignore Black Bloon properties again

Version 4.11

“

Biker Bones is very strong with late game strategies. This nerf to his earlier game will make him weaker early game to balance out his late game strength. Additionally we are introducing a new synergy with the buccaneer to vary his playstyles.
— Update notes

”

Levels	Changes
3+	Concussive Blast: Ability cooldown increased ― 24s → 30s
7+	Flame Trail: Pierce reduced ― 4 → 2  Flame Trail: Now affects the fighter planes of Aircraft Carrier and Carrier Flagship
