Call to Arms inherits the same perks as its previous upgrade, Monkey Intelligence Bureau, but with an added ability, the increased attack speed and pierce makes this ability one of the strongest in the game. Certain towers particularly benefit from the Call to Arms buff, including Spike Factories other than their abilities (which don't benefit from speed buffs), and top-path Engineers, which double-dip speed buffs (extra and faster sentries) and improve efficiency against dense groups.
Most of the time, Call to Arms is bought as a budget version of Homeland Defense, or to transition into it. Call to Arms can also be bought to charge up and sell-and-rebuy Homeland Defense abilities. In most game modes other than CHIMPS, Call to Arms is outclassed by Homeland Defense, as the latter has double the bonuses, though they both see use in Boss Bloon Events and Boss Rush. Being able to activate the ability between rounds is most useful in Timed Bosses, so other abilities can be pressed during the round without missing any of the Call to Arms buff.

Call to Arms ability suffers from uptime, for such an expensive upgrade which is such low range and purely support this makes it hard to use, so duration has now been increased to push it up to a 1/3rd uptime threshold

- Ability: Duration increased ― 12s → 15s

Village Call To Arms doesn't have a place in current high level meta gameplay as grouped clusters of equal towers are never really ideal. As it stands, the village radius is not a large enough area to get lots of benefit to all of the towers that you would be spreading out and maintain any uptime on them. A seemingly huge change but perhaps not in practical use, so we will be looking for feedback on this and whether this reduces placement skill or the need for multiple Villages.
