Triple Barrel

"Triple barrels provide the most efficient bloon shredding possible."

- BTD5 Mobile description

 is the third upgrade of path 2 for the Bloonchipper in Bloons Tower Defense 5 Deluxe. It allows it to suck up Bloons three times as fast, sucking up three times as many bloons, and gain a capacity of 9 instead of 3. In BTDB Mobile, this capacity boost increases to 36 instead.

In BTD5 Mobile, it costs $3825 on Easy, $4500 on Medium, $4860 on Hard and $5400 on Impoppable. In BTD5 Deluxe, it costs $6000 on Medium. It is quite expensive when compared to some of the other towers.

Appearance
The Bloonchipper obtains two more barrels attached to it and each barrel becomes the color purple. Each barrel has two thin yellow stripes on them.

Summary
Triple Barrels in general gameplay tends to be lacklustre at dealing with large groups of bloons, as a Triple Barrels tends to still have the core problem with getting Ceramics stuck inside it, whereas multiple Chippers can be used to alleviate those specific issues. And for dealing with weaker bloons, Triple Barrels tends to produce giant crowds of weaker bloons that may overwhelm specific defenses. Its expensive price is a major downside of this upgrade's overall effectiveness, especially compared to its rival Tier 3 Dual Layer Blades, which is far cheaper and doesn't spawn as many children bloons.

In Bloons TD Battles Mobile, Triple Barrels is much cheaper and sucks bloons much more effectively. Within this game, it can be used to deal with large waves of early-game bloons sent by the enemy player.

Tips

 * 1-3 is normally enough unless needing to suck in Leads, or also Ceramics if BTDB Mobile.
