The Unspoken Heroes is a type of Artifact in the Rogue Legends DLC for Bloons TD 6. It grants the projectiles of Tier 3 or higher Support Monkeys a 20% chance of spawning a ring of tacks when their projectiles expire. These tacks work like the base attack of a Tack Shooter, and can hit the same Bloon as the projectile that damaged it. Sub-towers like Engineer Sentries are not affected by this artifact, except Beast Handlers' beasts. For Beast Handlers, if the main tower is tier 3 or above, all of its beasts can spawn tacks, even if the beast is below tier 3, but the bird cannot be affected at all. The attack deals Shatter damage and can only hit Camo Bloons if its parent tower has Camo detection. Higher rarity versions of the Artifact increase the damage of the tacks, and the Legendary version additionally increases their pierce.

The tacks are useful during the early game to help a bit with the Bloon cleanup, and as the game progresses, thanks to the low damage of the tacks, they can be buffed significantly with towers like Embrittlement, Glue Strike or Berserker Brew, while their pierce is increased with other Artifacts and buffs to attack speed are always recommended so there can trigger the tacks more often. After a Unification-like artifact is obtained, players get access to towers that can use this Artifact with more reliability thanks to their combination of high attack speed and high projectile count like Tack Shooters, Monkey Buccaneers or Super Monkeys.
