Players will see a 15% increase in the Dart Monkey’s range and its attack speed will become an attack per second instead of an attack every 1.25 seconds. The most impressive aspect to the Juggernaut is the fact that it provides players with 50 pierce (or 51 with Monkey Knowledge) making it one of the “highest pierce” projectiles in the game, though it should be noted that players will also increase to having 2 damage. The Juggernaut hurls a giant spiked ball that pops Lead Bloons, Frozen Bloons and deals 3x damage to Ceramic Bloons. It should be noted that the Spike-o-pult deals damage every 1.25 seconds instead of every 0.95 seconds. The biggest benefit to getting access to the Spike-o-pult is that they deal extra damage to Ceramic Bloons. Spiked balls have an extended range popping a maximum of 22 bloons (or 23 with Monkey Knowledge). The Dart Monkey’s darts will be converted into a large Spike-o-pult that hurls large spiked balls instead of darts. Razor Sharp Shots provides players with 2 extra bloon pops per shot, allowing players to pop a total of 5 bloons (or 6 with Monkey Knowledge) per shot. Since players have an initial pierce of 2 (or 3 with Monkey Knowledge), players will be able to pop up to 3 bloons (or 4 with Monkey Knowledge) per dart. Sharp Shots provides players with an extra bloon pop per shot, allowing players to pop 2 bloons with a single dart. It’s usually a good idea to have at least one Dart Monkey powered up all the way with Path 1 as it will provide players with a great amount of reach in comparison to other Monkey Towers, especially if there are walls around. If players upgrade using Path 1 they will gain a great load of pierce and will dominate the screen with projectiles. The Dart Monkey has a Medium attack speed, coming in at 0.95s. The Dart Monkey can gain camo detection if players upgrade their third path to the second tier. The Dart Monkey has a Small range, which is considered to be “32.” BASE PIERCE The Dart Monkey is unlocked by default when purchasing BTD6. Players will want to make sure they maximize the amount of damage they can deal in order to ensure that no pierce is wasted, especially as players maximize the upgrades of their Dart Monkeys. If placed on a curved path the Dart Monkey may actually lose a lot of damage simply due to the fact that their attacks will go through bloons and essentially end up in a blank area. RECOMMENDED PLACEMENT / WHERE TO PLACEĭart Monkeys are most useful when placed on a long straight path due to the amount of pierce they receive. Most notably Dart Monkeys lack the ability to deal with Dark Dirigible Titans (DDTs), though Dart Monkeys do a decent amount of damage against other forms of MOAB-class bloons. The Dart Monkey is a great Monkey Tower to start off with, though players cannot fully rely on Dart Monkeys when advancing to Hard and Impoppable content as they are not strong enough. In most cases players should be able to rely on Primary Monkey for the different skills they bring to the table. Primary Monkeys are by far the cheapest types of Monkeys players can place, though it should be noted that Primary Monkeys range in power and unfortunately the majority of Primary Monkeys lack the ability to detect camo bloons without the use of a Support Tower. Primary Monkeys cost a minimum of $170 on Easy and as high as $720 on Impoppable. Note: If you want to watch me play games like BTD6 on Twitch head on over here! I’m always happy to answer your questions there as well! The following will take you through the different types of Monkeys, their uses, costs, abilities and when I prefer to use each and which upgrades I prefer to use together. While I have to admit there are some Monkeys that I rarely (or never use), it’s still a good idea to get to know what all the Monkeys get up to and what price they are and their upgrades cost, as some Monkeys are better than others when it comes to quickly upgrading the Monkey Tower or using them to keep bloons from leaking. Selecting the right Monkey Towers to place onto any set race track can be tricky and will depend on what the track looks like, the difficulty of the track and a player’s personal playstyle.
