Glaive Riccochet



 is the 3rd upgrade of path 1 for the Boomerang Thrower in Bloons Tower Defense 5. It allows the Boomerang Thrower to throw a glaive that bounces from bloon to bloon as long as there is one close by. This means that the glaive will continue and pop all bloons along the path similarly to a homing Spike-o-pult. However, this does NOT mean that the glaive will riccochet between two bloons.

The tower turns purple and gets a blue X on his back. This upgrade is good when there are lots of bloons in a crowd. It costs $940 on Easy, $1100 on Medium and $1190 on Hard.

Trivia

 * Riccochet.png is one of the few attacks with no limit on bloons popped per shot.
 * This is the only Boomerang Thrower upgrade in Bloons TD 5 that makes the Boomerang Thrower purple.
 * Six glaive riccochets can destoy a large bunch of ceramic bloons.
 * When placed at the end of a long track, the glaive will pierce every bloon till it reaches the start, meaning almost infinity popping power, as long as the bloons are somewhat clumped.
