One Monkey Army is a Legendary Artifact in the Rogue Legends DLC for Bloons TD 6, introduced in version 48.0. It causes Heroes to count as all tower categories, thus benefitting from all buffs, Artifacts, and Boosts that only apply to specific categories of towers, and also grants them Camo detection, double damage to all Bloons, and double damage to Boss Bloons specifically (for quadruple boss damage overall). Additionally, Heroes count as tier 5 towers if their hero level is above 5, meaning they benefit from artifacts such as Essence Of Blastapopoulos and Essence Of Vortex, which seems to be a bug.
As a trade-off, Heroes earn no XP naturally (including from Battlefield Commission, but excluding buying levels and hero-specific XP gains), and all non-Hero towers' projectiles deal zero base damage and are considered "immune" by all Bloons.[fn 1] It does not affect sub-towers, powers, Beast Handlers of any tier, or any kind of damage not dealt directly by a projectile, such as damage over time. Removing Bloon immunities with Alchemist, Embrittlement, or Cleansing Foam does not allow towers to damage them.
Strategy
The One Monkey Army artifact is risky but can be very powerful if using a DPS-focused Hero, such as Captain Churchill, or at least a Hero with adequate range. As the Hero counts for all categories, the Hero synergizes with plenty of Artifacts that involve tower categories. Helpful Heroes include the Captain Churchill, Striker Jones, and Adora. It's only useless on Benjamin, who has no direct attacks.
Be careful to reserve enough lives in case of unfavorable maps such as Dark Dungeons, so you can skip these tiles if necessary.
Additional tips:
- Using a Monkey Intelligence Bureau or the Intelligence Agent Artifact prevents projectiles from being considered immune by all Bloons. They still deal zero base damage, but their damage can be raised above zero with Artifacts and/or buffs.
- Ice Monkeys can freeze Bloons without a damage buff but with an MIB.
- The Lead to Gold effect requires a damage buff to turn the bloons into gold, but will still delete them otherwise.
- Glue Gunners with High Impact need both a MIB and a Damage Buff source to deal High Impact damage, but can scale in damage with bloons on screen afterwards.
- Subtower focused towers like the Engineer and Beast Handler can provide some support in the early game. These should be replaced with towers that buff the hero in later stages.
- The Engineer Monkey also has a valuable buff in its Overclock, so it can be mentored to be a valuable asset at all stages.

Boss Artifacts now stack with the effects of One Monkey Army (bug fix)
- One Monkey Army no longer reduces the XP obtained by Battlefield Commission (undocumented)
Now correctly negates the damage of Desperados and 0-0-0 Beast Handlers (bug fix)- Note: Beasts still deal damage as sub-towers are still excluded from the Artifact's drawback
- Heroes no longer count as all categories when reaching Level 4 when combining One Monkey Army with a Boss Artifact (undocumented) (bug fix)
- Note: The change was actually done on the Boss Artifacts themselves by making the filter explicitly remove Heroes, instead of allowing the other four categories
