More Tacks is the Tack Shooter's path 3 tier 1 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It increases the number of tacks fired per shot from 8 to 10.

Crosspathing with Ring of Fire and Inferno Ring increases its main attack's damage by 1.

Crosspathing with Blade Maelstrom increases the duration of its ability by 0.5 seconds, and Super Maelstrom's duration is increased by 1.5. Additionally, the ability spin direction is reversed (from clockwise to counter-clockwise).

Strategy

This section was last updated for: version 52.2

The extra tacks granted by More Tacks is not worth the price when upgrading from a 0-0-0 Tack Shooter, thus More Tacks is only recommended as a crosspath, in which case purchasing the subsequent upgrade, Even More Tacks, is recommended in nearly all cases.

More Tacks is optimal for Inferno Ring when pierce buffs such as Berserker Brew and Primary Training are available, Ring of Fire when range and pierce are not an issue, and Blade Maelstrom and Super Maelstrom when reliability instead of burst damage is required for the mid-game. More Tacks is generally not recommended as a crosspath for Hot Shots and Blade Shooter.

Inferno Ring has felt very outclassed for a long time, and more recently the tack shooter was reworked to give pierce on x2x which made the old 402 pierce crosspath not make as much sense anymore. We wanted to start work on both these issues together by reworking how Ring of Fire and Inferno Ring interact with crosspaths
— Update notes
4-0-1, 5-0-1
  • Nerf More Tacks no longer grants +10 pierce to Ring of Fire/Inferno Ring
The Ring of Fire & Inferno Ring upgrades recently received a crosspath functional rework, as we’re happy with the x2x range/pierce combo now this small follow-up is just to bring a bit more impact to the short-range 402 variant.
— Update notes
4-0-1
  • Buff Damage increased ― 3 → 4
5-0-1
  • Buff Damage increased ― 4 → 5
Maelstrom crosspathing? Why not, feels that this could be cool to try out, and more consistency on bottom crosspath may be able to make it the preferred ability crosspath while top path which already improves the base tower more will give back the massive pierce amount for times where the greater punch per use is required.
— Update notes
0-4-1, 0-5-1
  • Neutral Ability: Now rotates counter-clockwise with this crosspath
0-4-1
  • Buff Ability: Duration increased ― 3s → 3.5s
0-5-1
  • Buff Ability: Duration increased ― 9s → 10.5s
Tack is a very powerful base tower technically, but it is unable to achieve high uptime of that potential power in many early rounds, so some base cost is moving into the cheaper xx1 and xx2 upgrades to make it easier for other towers to start alongside the tack.
— Update notes
  • Nerf Upgrade cost increased ― $100 → $110
    • Buff Overall cost reduced by $10 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
  • Buff Reload rate reduced ― 1.4s → 1.12s
