Monkey Pirates is the Monkey Buccaneer's path 2 tier 4 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. With this upgrade, the Monkey Buccaneer shoots three bombs at a time instead of one, its bombs deal 3 damage instead of 2 and deal +3 damage to MOAB-Class Bloons, and its grapes deal 3 damage instead of 2 and deal +2 damage to Ceramic Bloons. This upgrade unlocks the MOAB Takedown Activated Ability, which destroys one MOAB, BFB, DDT (if it has Camo detection), or Dreadrock Bloon (if it is not immune to Military) on-screen, prioritizing the strongest Bloon. It has a cooldown of 50 seconds (45 seconds with 
Faster Takedowns).

Bottom crosspath feels behind compared to others here, so in addition to the new Camo Prioritization filter Longer Range on this path will now also grant bonus pierce.

Monkey Pirates is great for the first couple MOABs but with the long ability cooldown it very quickly falls off after that point, we have pushed it and Pirate Lord’s base stats up to feel more competitive especially with possible Brickell synergy.

“
We’ve realized that the 130 crosspath just hasn’t even been working for cannons, so we wanted to correct this so that people get all that they pay for with that crosspath, however middle path buccaneer at higher tiers has been overperforming significantly so in addition to this attack speed buff we have also balanced back out that difference in the opposite direction with a damage reduction.

- DoT: Damage per tick increased ― 1 → 2
- Bomb attack: Damage to MOAB-class reduced ― +6 → +3
- 1-4-0, 2-4-0
- Faster Shooting now reduces attack cooldown of the bomb attack by 25%
“
Reworking Grape Shot crosspathing as it gains far too much crosspath value by T2 but then is lacking in purpose at higher tiers, double shot will only work as one extra grape however Destroyer will now apply its full attack rate buff to the grapes and Flagship will equip aspects of Grape Shot on the mini planes.

Small tweaks to Buccaneer’s Long Range upgrade to improve its additional pierce benefit for a number of attacks.

As noted earlier, Middle Path was identified as not having weakness to justify the power and is seeing changes related to that.

- MOAB Takedown: No longer detects Camo without Crow's Nest or external Camo detection
- Note: Required to hook in DDTs
- Frag: No longer hits the same Bloon as the initial bomb
“
Middle path buccaneer continues to attack with its initial 1 damage projectile that never gets upgraded but the Cannons are very much intended to be a ‘replacement’ upgrade to this main attack, so we are finally disabling that dart along with improving the damage of grapes for the T3 & T4 on this path so the lower tiers can save into Pirate Lord better.

- Grape damage increased ― 2 → 3
- Main dart attack disabled
- Overall cost reduced by $100 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
“
Middle Buccaneer has had mixed feedback with much disappointment that the focus of its balance changes haven’t been improvements for the ability, given this path has again lost considerable power we want to look more on both of those aspects this time.

We’re currently happy with Pirate Lord, but Monkey Pirates has been hit hard by changes so cost is being pushed out of it to encourage multi mid path building.

- Upgrade cost reduced ― $4,900 → $3,900

Pirate Lord is seeing a stat reduction as it deals area damage too effectively to many targets.
