Strategy

Like Airburst Darts, Triple Darts is a versatile yet cost ineffective tower for the early-game to mid-game. Uncrosspathed, it underperforms due to costing more per DPS than Airburst Darts, but its space-saving aspect and greater efficiency when crosspathed make it remain worthwhile. As a standalone tower, Triple Guns requires a Berserker Brew because of its low base pierce and damage. Without it, it falls behind other superior options and isn't worth using. Spamming buffed Triple Guns is a strong choice for Least Cash ranked settings on Normal Boss Bloons, especially Phayze.

2-0-3 is the generally superior crosspath, especially for maps with alternating lanes, granting Intel that can also be used for Camo Bloons. In Sub Commander armies, the 2-0-3 Triple Guns is ideal if long range is important, as this Sub crosspath maximizes the bonus damage and pierce from the Sub Commander for a relatively low cost. However, 0-3-2 Ballistic Missile missiles are preferred on compact maps with all lanes intersecting, and upgrading to 2-0-4 Armor Piercing Darts is recommended if space is limited.
