Well Sharper Darts and Pineapple Present could be useful in Daily Challenges, and even possibly Special Missions.

Long Life Bananas could be useful if you're using Dartling Guns and Banana Farms but have no Dartling Ammo Dump. Each upgrade has its uses I guess.

Back on topic, I reckon Temples are only worth buying if you have sacrifices. Unless it's a blimp-less mode or challenge.

Based on my observations, 'vanilla' Temples would generally be stronger against non-MOAB-class bloons - this is further emphasised by their inherent Camo-detecting trait. On the other hand, if blimps show up a lot, Sun Gods would be better than Temples with no sacrifices. They'd be more cost-effective too.

If you sacrifice correctly, they'd become undeniably the most powerful tower/upgrade in the game. I know that each upgrade has its uses. I'm just saying: The ace upgrade (Path 1, Tier 2) called Sharper Darts is the most useless upgrade in Bloons history, BUT it is still quite useful, e.g. with Neva-Miss Targetting, meaning that all upgrades have a use. Oh, and Pineapple Present onced saved me from being run over by leads.

About the Temple: It turns out that a max Temple directly above the pool in Pumpkin Patch can prevent anything from reds to mass BFBs from entering the screen. (Tested with a 3/2 Village)
