Upgrades
Path 1
- 1-x-x Full Metal Jacket is a cheap Lead popper for rounds 28 and 30.
- 3-x-x Deadly Precision is easily affordable before round 40, and is an excellent counter to the MOAB. It can one-shot non-super ceramics, meaning it holds up very well into the mid-game.
- 4-x-x Maim MOAB is an incredible staller, being able to hold MOAB-Class Bloons in place while slowly taking them out. Its relatively low price for its value allows it to shine on Impoppable and CHIMPS. Its effectiveness against DDTs makes it stay relevant into the late-game, though by then you should ideally have a more reliable counter (such as Super Glue or Icicle Impale).
- 5-x-x Cripple MOAB is not a bad tower, but its ineffectiveness against BADs, coupled with its rather high price, leave it in an unfortunate situation. While it is great to have, it usually is unaffordable before the mid-90s and so is seen less than its tier 4 counterpart.
