Alternate arm no longer has a stronger knockback effect on Leads and Ceramics (bug fix)
| “ | We were finally able to properly implement a popular suggestion for the Robo Monkey, and will be keeping an eye on it’s performance more closely in this update. — Update notes |
” |
- Middle path Super Monkeys are now able to independently set each arm to different target priorities, instead of fixed First+Last or Strong+Close targeting combinations
| “ | Additionally middle path has received some basic buffs with middle path has received some basic buffs with Robo-Monkey feeling unbalanced for the high price and difficult crosspathing, Tech Terror not keeping up with other towers that perform a similar role. — Update notes |
” |
- Overall cost reduced by $2,000 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
- Ability cooldown decreased ― 60s → 45s
| “ | While not considered an issue on the same level for Races, the Bloon Annihilation ability has preemptively had pierce reduced under the same reasoning as Ground Zero and Maelstrom, but by amounts that still likely won’t be noticeable even under most Race conditions - but we’re keeping an eye on it. — Update notes |
” |
- Overall cost reduced by $3,000 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
- Ability: Pierce reduced ― ∞ → 10,000
- Now remembers target priorities when loading saves (bug fix)
| “ | Robo Monkey has never filled the super effective role it held in BTD5, so Dr Monkey has installed updated HUD targeting systems that now deal occasional critical hits. Additionally as the abilities on this path didn’t match up to their history or other Monkey Tower options (like Ground Zero) so they have been improved significantly in damage and increased radius. — Update notes |
” |
- Overall cost increased by $1,400 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
- Main attack: Now fires a crit shot every 13–17 shots that deals 50 damage
- Ability: Damage increased ― 3,500 → 5,000
- Ability: Radius increased ― 110 → 120
- Overall cost reduced by $400 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
“
The Anti-Bloon is expensive but as a quite underused tower feels it doesn’t live up to the super monkey name for that cost, for now the ability is seeing a cooldown decrease.

- Ability cooldown reduced ― 45s → 30s
- Ability initial cooldown reduced ― 15s → 0s (undocumented)
| “ | Tech Terror's ability runs into niche issues before r100 with some cases causing it to break BFBs into ceramic rushes instead of destroying them entirely, we found a very small damage buff resolves this up to r100, solving this problem for the base game modes, and while we were here added for the possibility for the ability to also deal consistant critical hits. — Update notes |
” |
- Ability: Damage increased ― 5000 → 5200
- Every 3rd ability crits for +50% damage
| “ | We want the base Super Monkey to feel like more of a ‘weak for the cost’ stepping stone into T3s that feel more like T4s; but the base upgrade really does feel very outdated on this idea, and big crosspath problems exist due to this so we are moving some attack speed out from 2xx into the base upgrade. [...] the T5’s ability doesn’t feel like enough of a step up from T4 for the much greater cost it has so some adjustments are also being made here, as after all this is Super Monkey, right? — Update notes |

- Overall cost reduced by $1,000 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
- Ability damage increased ― 5200 → 10,400

- Ability pierce reduced ― 10,000 → 2000
- Base attack rate decreased ― 0.048s → 0.036s
- Note: Plasma Blasts crosspath remains at 0.024s
| “ | We’ve wanted to try out this idea for a while, and finally thought why not. It seemed fun to test with, so we hope people can find some fun use for it in challenges. — Update notes |
” |
- 0-5-1, 0-5-2
- Ability: Now knocks back any surviving targets
- 0-5-1, 0-5-2
- Ability: No longer knocks Bloons forward in some cases (bug fix)
| “ | We lowered the price of Tech Terrors to keep them ‘unchanged’ with Robo’s recent balancing, however in hindsight Robo is still too powerful and Tech Terrors themselves were already good enough that they really should’ve taken the hit along with Robo. Instead as they have risen in power even more, both of these upgrades are being properly nerfed now with a compensatory price buff to Anti-Bloon instead (hopefully not groundhogging to where Anti-Bloon becomes far too powerful and more changes are needed in v43) — Update notes |
