But when a 3-2 attacks ceramics it does 104 damage per shot.

Layers per second ≠ Damage per second

And there is a point that Bihapove says about Layers per second ≠ Damage per second. Think about that fast popping of 7 layers 3x fast vs. a single popping of 18 layers at normal Sniper speed. That would be a lot against non-MOAB-class. It would be horribly expensive to cause stunning effect by Cripple MOAB if going for 4/2 Snipers, and plus that would only affect one MOAB, BFB, ZOMG or DDT at a time. The $13500 + $4000 could've been spent on things like more MOAB Maulers, upgrading your Super Monkey to Robo-Monkey and getting Plasma Blasts, or even getting a Bloonchipper with Super Wide Funnel (mobile only).
