Strategy

Like Semi-Automatic, Full Auto Rifle serves highly divergent roles depending on the crosspath. Overall, the 0-2-4 is a generalist that excels against groups of bloons when facing against them, while 2-0-4 excels at accurate, rapid single-target damage. With crosspaths, a single Full Auto Rifle is more efficient than multiple Semi-Automatics, in terms of cost and power, because of its higher MOAB damage and increased shrapnel damage with 0-2-4.

0-2-4 is a good mid-game tower, dealing solid overall damage when placed on a location (such as Muddy Puddles's bottom-middle section) where it can shoot Bloons while they travel toward it. It benefits immensely from a 3-2-0 Berserker Brew, which significantly boosts its damage, pierce, and attack speed. On maps with optimal placements, spamming 0-2-4 Full Auto Rifles with the 0-5-2 Elite Sniper, the 0-2-5 Elite Defender, and Permanent Brew is a powerful CHIMPS strategy. However, it suffers on maps without such placements, such as Pat's Pond and X Factor.

The 2-0-4 Full Auto Rifle is tailored towards mid-game MOABs, performing well against them and being far more efficient than the 2-0-3 Semi-Automatic. 2-0-4's most significant strength is against Boss Bloons, especially Vortex (which it ignores the shield of), thanks to its powerful single-target damage. When attempting Timed Vortex, spamming 2-0-4 Full Auto Rifles with buffs is mandatory for later tiers.

Version 20.0

“

This tower felt like it’s strength too heavily required the xx2 upgrade, and that this harmed crosspath choices. So we increased the base attack rate while nerfing the increase from these upgrades. This is a slight overall buff

Version 40.0

“

Full auto sniper's 024 crosspath sees a lot of fun/meme use, but not so much more than that. We’re hoping that applying the MOAB bonus that it gains to the shrapnel as well will help improve non-meme use here. (And looking over my notes, it seems this was meant to be included a while ago…But better late than never!)

0-2-4

•  Shrapnel: now deals +1 damage to MOAB-Class

Version 41.0

“

Sniper Monkey has some very powerful upgrades but also many poor stepping stones. We felt this tower needed a big price shuffle all around, pushing down the cost of many underwhelming upgrades but returning this back into stronger upgrades.
— Update notes

”

•  Upgrade cost reduced ― $4,250 → $4,100

Version 46.0

“

Players have requested a bonus for the 025 Sniper shrapnel given it’s meant to be a pierce crosspath but struggles on anything non-MOAB, so we’d like to try moving the bonus MOAB damage on 024 shrapnel into base damage instead.
