While Boomerang excels as an early game tower and so we are conscious to not make its later tiers overly strong, we still want all upgrades to have some viability. Perma Charge is probably the weakest of Boomerang’s tier 5s and the other two aren’t particularly powerful either, so we think it’s well deserving of a buff.
— Version 4.1.1 patch notes
Tiers Changes
X-5-X Perma Charge
  • Buff Ability damage modifier increased ― +8 → +10
A small adjustment to crosspath balancing to make this option a little bit more enticing.
— Version 4.1.1 patch notes
Tiers Changes
5-0-2 Bloon Crush + Frag Bombs
  • Buff Frag damage increased ― 12 → 20
  • Nerf Frag no longer deals +12 damage to Ceramics
Inferno Ring is still in need of a buff, rarely seeing any use.
— Version 4.1.1 patch notes
Tiers Changes
5-X-0 Inferno Ring
  • Buff Meteor damage increased ― 700 → 900
5-0-1 Inferno Ring + More Tacks
  • Buff Meteor damage increased ― 1,000 → 1,300
5-0-2 Inferno Ring + Even More Tacks
  • Buff Meteor damage increased ― 1,400 → 1,800
Ice Monkey is useful for early game defense and late game support with stalling and debuffing, but provides pretty much no MOAB class damage with any of its upgrades. We would like to give it a bit more to offer by allowing Icicles to attack and damage MOAB class bloons. It won’t deal massive damage to them but it can be greatly buffed by Fusty the Snowman, so we will be curious to see what impact this change has.
— Version 4.1.1 patch notes
Tiers Changes
X-X-4 Icicles
  • Buff Can now target and damage MOAB-Class Bloons, placing Icicles on them but not freezing them
  • Buff Now deals +3 damage to MOAB-Class Bloons
Since it’s hard to get much use out of Sniper in the early game, we’re giving it some simple early game buffs and improvements to crosspathing.
— Version 4.1.1 patch notes
Tiers Changes
2-2-0 Large Calibre + Shrapnel Shot
  • Buff Shrapnel damage increased ― 2 → 3
3-2-0 Deadly Precision + Shrapnel Shot
  • Buff Shrapnel damage increased ― 4 → 5
4-2-0 Maim MOAB + Shrapnel Shot
  • Buff Shrapnel damage increased ― 6 → 8
    • Note: Cripple MOAB shrapnel is unchanged
1-2-0 Shrapnel Shot + Full Metal Jacket
  • Buff Shrapnel damage increased ― 1 → 2
We would like Aircraft Carrier and Carrier Flagship to be more effective in bloon cleanup, which we have done by increasing the pierce that the darts have against regular bloons but not against MOAB class bloons. For example, Carrier Flagship’s darts remain unchanged when hitting all MOAB class bloons, but they have the potential to hit 4x as many regular bloons now.
— Version 4.1.1 patch notes
Tiers Changes
4-X-X Aircraft Carrier
  • Buff Plane dart pierce increased ― 13 → 20
  • Nerf MOAB-Class Bloons now consume +1 pierce from plane darts
5-X-X Carrier Flagship
  • Buff Plane dart pierce increased ― 18 → 72
  • Nerf MOAB-Class Bloons now consume +3 pierce from plane darts
Ace Monkey has a pretty easy time getting through all stages of the game, with the potential to be extremely efficient in the early/mid game when targeted optimally. We have slightly nerfed Bomber Ace so that its bloon cleanup isn’t quite so solid.
— Version 4.1.1 patch notes
Tiers Changes
X-3-0 Bomber Ace
  • Nerf Bomb pierce reduced ― 20 → 12
0-3-1 Bomber Ace + Sharper Darts
  • Nerf Bomb pierce reduced ― 20 → 17
    • Note: This means the Sharper Darts crosspath now gives +5 pierce to bombs
Heli Pilot rarely sees much use as a starting tower so we hope that this change will make this option more attractive.
