Bloonjitsu is the Ninja Monkey's path 1 tier 4 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It allows the Ninja Monkey to throw five shurikens at a time (six with Deadly Tranquility) instead of two. Like Double Shot, the center of each shot's spread is randomly offset by 5° clockwise or anticlockwise, but the projectiles are always spread over a 45° angle (even with Deadly Tranquility).

Strategy

This section was last updated for: version 51.0

Bloonjitsu thrives on its strong reception to buffs, having the capability to shoot many seeking projectiles quickly. Without buffs, it's not at all worth it, being exceedingly weak for its cost. At minimum, the tower should be used with a Berserker Brew, preferably with Shinobi Tactics as well. With large numbers of Shinobi, the extra speed and pierce coupled with Distraction hits from Shinobi let it effectively handle even dense midgame rounds like 63. In this context, Bloonjitsu serves as a stepping stone to Grandmaster Ninja or Master Bomber or a late game defense setup with several Bloonjitsus surrounded by Shinobi coupled with damage-increasing buffs and debuffs. If not building into a Ninja-centric late game defense, Shinobi are more expensive than other mid game options, and Bloonjitsu without Shinobi is very weak. As Shinobi upgrades can all be discounted, these setups should be used with two discount Monkey Villages, one x-0-2 and one 0-x-2. This saves extra cash in the long run, particularly if going for MIB for DDTs.

In late Freeplay, Bloonjitsu becomes the most cost-efficient damage option in the game with Shinobi Tactics buffs and damage buffs. With max Shinobi Tactics stacks, Permanent Brew, Sun Temple and True Sun God Support buffs, coupled with all blimp debuffs, a Bloonjitsu can put out a little over 100x the single target damage of the base tower. Sun Avatars can still be more space-efficient, but otherwise Bloonjitsu is the best tower to spam in late Freeplay.

Bloonjitsu's favored crosspath is 4-0-2. Seeking Shuriken allows shurikens to maximize pierce on multiple targets, while Caltrops piles up more damage without detrimenting uptime with Alchemist buffs. Note that 4-0-1 is sometimes used in deep Freeplay due to Caltrops contributing to lag. The middle crosspath's benefits are better covered by Shinobi.

Version 11.0

•  "[S]hould no longer be able to occasionally shoot with an infinite range in specific setups" (bug fix)

Version 28.0

“

As ninja is the ‘Camo Specialist’ and has been since inception, it is the only tower that will unlock Camo Prioritization on the base tower.
— Update notes

”

•  Camo Prioritization filter added

Version 38.0

“

We’re mindful that this has been in place since launch, but still think this change could lead to more balanced crosspath Ninja play for casual and for apex players. Ninja's 1xx feels like it does too much, granting both range and attack speed to all crosspaths, so these benefits are now being split apart.
— Update notes

”

•  Range decreased ― 47 units → 40 units
  •  Seeking Shuriken crosspath is unchanged

Version 43.0

4-0-2

•  Caltrop attack: Attack cooldown increased ― 2.728s → 2.73s (attack speed reduced by 0.07%)
