Super Range Tacks is the Tack Shooter's path 2 tier 2 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It increases range by +3.9 units, increases pierce from 1 to 4, and increases projectile lifespan. If purchased as a crosspath for Ring of Fire, Inferno Ring, or The Tack Zone, the pierce is increased from 30 to 45, 45 to 60, or 2 to 10, respectively. For The Tack Zone, the range bonus is +20 instead.

Strategy

This section was last updated for: version 51.2

The large pierce boost that Super Range Tacks grants makes it a very strong tower to start with on Race Events; with crosspaths (1-2-0 being the most cost-efficient of the lower-tiers), it can take out the first dozen rounds simultaneously when placed on a good bend. Elsewhere, Super Range Tacks is a strong early-game tower on maps with very good bends (which maximize its large pierce), but falls short on maps without them, where it is only recommended as a crosspath.

Super Range Tacks is the optimal crosspath for Hot Shots, which only has 1 pierce and benefits greatly from the +3 pierce that Super Range Tacks provides. Super Range Tacks is preferred for Ring of Fire when extra range is desired to reach the outskirts of bends, and for Inferno Ring when no pierce buffs can be obtained, but is suboptimal for Tier 3+ bottom-path Tack Shooters outside of Race Events.

The maximized crosspathed range provided by Super Range Tacks allows greater coverage on bends, though the main incentive is usually the pierce bonus. On some maps, such as Spillway, this Tack can reach areas that other Tacks cannot; in Spillway, it can attack if placed at the bottom of the map's barrel.

  • Buff Now increases tack projectile lifespan (bug fix)
  • Change Portrait has been replaced
  • Buff Super Range Tacks increases pierce by +1 ― 1 → 2
    • Note: Blade Shooter unaffected
Inferno Ring has felt very outclassed for a long time, and more recently the tack shooter was reworked to give pierce on x2x which made the old 402 pierce crosspath not make as much sense anymore. We wanted to start work on both these issues together by reworking how Ring of Fire and Inferno Ring interact with crosspaths
— Update notes
4-2-0, 5-2-0
  • Buff Long Range Tacks now grants +10 pierce to Ring of Fire/Inferno Ring
  • Buff Super Range Tacks now grants +10 pierce to Ring of Fire/Inferno Ring (+20 total)
With pierce and range on the base Tack Zone so high that increases weren’t noticeable the middle crosspath was underserved. To balance crosspathing we have reworked the base Tack Zone around lower values then improving them greatly for the crosspaths.
— Update notes
0-2-5
  • Buff Super Range Tacks grants Tack Zone +20 range bonus ― +3.9 → +20
    • Note: range reduced from 53.8 to 50
  • Buff Super Range Tacks grants Tack Zone +6 pierce bonus ― +1 → +6
    • Note: pierce unchanged at 10
Inferno Ring itself feels ok but for the difficult saveup not so much, so as a bit of a buff we have added crosspathing to the Meteor attack.
— Update notes
5-2-0
  • Buff Super Range Tacks now increases the pierce of the meteor attack by 1
[...] Ring of Fire also generally has too high a pierce amount for how effective it is at utilizing its full pierce value.
— Update notes
4-2-0, 5-2-0
  • Nerf Pierce reduced ― 60 → 45
5-2-0
  • Buff Main attack: Pierce increased ― 45 → 60
  • Buff Overall cost reduced by $20 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
For a tower that functions best close-up anyway increasing range has questionable viability, Tack Shooter’s middle crosspath has always struggled due to this so we’ve decided to try out a more considerable pierce increase.
— Update notes
  • Buff Pierce bonus increased ― +1 → +3
    • Note: Blade Shooter, Ring of Fire, and their higher tiers are unchanged
0-2-5
  • Buff Pierce bonus increased ― +6 → +8
  • Buff Reload rate reduced ― 1.4s → 1.12s
