Monkey Sense is the Wizard Monkey's path 3 tier 2 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It increases the Wizard Monkey's attack range by 10 distance units, or 25% of its base range, and allows it to detect Camo Bloons. If crosspathed with Archmage, it also increases the projectile radius of its Shimmers by ~16.7%.

Monkey Sense is decent camo detection, notably the 0-2-2 Wall of Fire as a cheap but reliable popper of groups of Camos including Camo Leads. The extra range is a bonus that allows the Wizard to reach further, in addition to Intense Magic granting extra pierce. Both top and bottom path Wizards with Monkey Sense have the advantage of innate camo detection and improved bolt pierce, which assists cleanup and, except Arcane Mastery, all Tier 3+ Wizards can serve as DDT-popping.

  •   Overall cost reduced by $100 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
0-2-2, 0-3-2, 0-4-2, 0-5-2
  •   Intense Magic now grants +5 pierce to Wall of Fire
    •   Overall pierce of this crosspath is unchanged (due to changes to Wall of Fire's base pierce
  •   Overall cost reduced by $50 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  •   Camo Prioritization filter added
0-2-2, 0-3-2, 0-4-2, 0-5-2
  •   Intense Magic grants less pierce to Wall of Fire ― +5 → +4
  •   Overall cost reduced by $25 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
0-4-2, 0-5-2
  •   Phoenix should now correctly interact with camo prio with Monkey Sense crosspath (bug fix)
011 Fireball also does not benefit from having the pierce crosspath
— Update notes
0-1-2, 0-2-2, 0-3-2, 0-4-2, 0-5-2
  •   Fireball: pierce increased ― 15 → 20
Wall of Fire’s exceptional T2 power needs to be moved around for improved crosspathing, along with a slight nerf to Phoenix as it is currently performing too well, and both of these upgrades are shifting some of their power into Dragon’s Breath so it can stand out as more than just a buff to WoF & a stepping stone to Phoenix.
— Update notes
0-2-2, 0-3-2, 0-4-2, 0-5-2
  •   Wall of Fire pierce per tic reduced ― 19 → 15
0-3-2, 0-4-2, 0-5-2
  •   Dragon's Breath WoF pierce per tick increased ― 19 → 25 (undocumented)
Dragon’s Breath range is being fixed to actually match the tower radius, but now xx2 crosspath will also improve range and can bring it back to what it was.
— Update notes
  •   Increases wizard range by +10 ― 40 → 50
    • Note: Shimmer range unchanged at 60
3-0-2, 4-0-2, 5-0-2
  •   Range increased ― 60 → 70
  •   Overall cost reduced by $50 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  •   Overall cost reduced by $75 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
[...] we can justify a QoL buff with Dragon’s Breath’s scaling adjusting to match more crosspath improvements, meaning it will now benefit [... from] bottom path’s projectile speed increase.
— Update notes
Archmage’s MOAB bonuses are a little overkill and being lowered so we can justify a QoL buff with Dragon’s Breath’s scaling adjusting to match more crosspath improvements, meaning it will now benefit from Archmage’s range increase as well as bottom path’s projectile speed increase.
— Update notes
0-3-2, 0-4-2, 0-5-2, 5-0-2
  •   Dragon's Breath attack: Projectile speed increased ― 125 units/s → 250 units/s
