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.

Dread Pirate Brickell starts with the Common variant of this Artifact. It also provides a Desperado to the party (1-0-1, 1-0-2, 0-0-2) depending on the Artifact rarity.

Strategy

Due its low chance of applying effects and the inability of affect MOAB-Class Bloons, this Artifact does not provide an useful or reliable way to stall Bloons as Ice Monkeys or Glue Gunners will do a better job than any Desperado for Freeze and Glue effects and artifacts like Dazing Frostburn and Enchanted Rebuttal or towers like Druid of the Storm provide stun / pushback of small Bloons without having to get the favorable roll of a 10% chance.

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.
