Shrapnel Shot is the Sniper Monkey's path 2 tier 2 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. With this upgrade, each shot from the Sniper Monkey emits 5 shrapnel projectiles from behind the target in a 45° angle spread. Each shrapnel projectile deals 1 damage, +2 damage to Camo Bloons (inherited from Night Vision Goggles), and can pop up to 2 Bloons. Shrapnel does not deal damage to the main target.
Crosspathing with the top path increases the shrapnel's damage, allows them to pop frozen Bloons and Lead Bloons, and allows them to apply a weaker version of the Maim MOAB and Cripple MOAB effects.

| “ | 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 — Update notes |
” |
- Fire rate increased ― 2s → 1.59s
| “ | To retain value in more Lead-heavy situations including against DDTs, this upgrade that has always allowed Lead popping to main attack will now also grant this to the Shrapnel from any shrapnel shot snipers mixing in this upgrade — Update notes |
” |
- 1-2-0, 2-2-0, 3-2-0, 4-2-0, 5-2-0
- Now changes the damage type of shrapnel to Normal
| “ | Trading off rate of fire for shrapnel crosspath doesn’t work well for Maim MOAB as it’s all about being a stall tower, so instead of focussing on a damage increase here the shrapnel will now apply the benefits of the sniper’s stun & debuff to turn this crosspath choice into a question of preference in grouping vs single target. — Update notes |
” |
- 4-2-0, 5-2-0
- Shrapnel: can now apply stun
- 5-2-0
- Shrapnel: can now apply debuff
- 5-2-0
- No longer spawns shrapnel (bug)
- 5-2-0
- Now applies its debuff effect and visuals correctly in all cases (bug fix)
| “ | As middle path sniper has been feeling to be in a good spot with alchemist buffs, but other uses of sniper shrapnel weak due to lack of alchemist buff, we have decided to swap alchemist buffability over from the number of bounces to the power of the shrapnel itself. — Update notes |
” |
- Camo Prioritization filter added
- Shrapnel can now receive external buffs
- 0-2-3, 0-2-4, 0-2-5
- Shrapnel: pierce reduced ― 3 → 2 (undocumented)
| “ | Maim MOABs grouped stun potential when crosspathed with Shrapnel feels it is overperforming too much so the shrapnel will now have a reduced stun amount compared to the initial target hit — Update notes |
” |
- 4-2-0
- Shrapnel: Stun duration reduced by 33%
- MOAB ― 3s → 2s
- BFB ― 1.5s → 1s

- DDT ― 4s → 2.5s
- BAD/Boss ― 0.75s → 0.5s
| “ | 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!) — Update notes |
” |
- 0-2-4, 0-2-5
- Shrapnel: now deals +1 damage to MOAB-Class
- Overall cost reduced by $50 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
| “ | Lower tier Shrapnel crosspathing balance doesn’t feel great currently, so the damage crosspath benefits at T1 & T2 are improving. Even with the high damage per shot, Cripple MOAB still has low value outside of debuff capability, we feel that these shots pack enough of a punch now that they should do a little collateral damage - so lets do it! (we’ve also increased shrapnel pierce at this tier to not tip crosspath balance too far to one side). — Update notes |

- 1-2-0
- Shrapnel: Damage increased ― 1 → 2
- 2-2-0
- Shrapnel: Damage increased ― 2 → 3
- 5-2-0
- Shrapnel: Shrapnel pierce increased ― 2 → 3
| “ | 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. — Update notes |
” |
- 0-2-4, 0-2-5
- Shrapnel: base damage increased ― 1 → 2
- Shrapnel: no longer deals +1 damage to MOAB-Class
| “ | Cripple MOAB’s shrapnel piercing has been improved to assist in support purposes. — Update notes |

- Note: With both effects the Shrapnel will travel for 80 units instead of 32 units
| “ | Shrapnel defender has been doing too good a carry job early on across too many maps, so the flat damage has been reduced back to a ceramic bonus, keeping it quite good but not overstaying its welcome. — Update notes |
” |
- 0-2-5
- Shrapnel: Damage reduced ― 2 → 1
- Shrapnel: Now deals +1 damage to Ceramic Bloons
