Bloonjitsu (BTD5)

"The art of bloonjitsu allows Ninjas to throw 5 shurikens at once!"

- Description

Bloonjitsu is the final upgrade on Path 1 for the Ninja Monkey in BTD5, allowing the Bloonjitsu Master to throw 5 shurikens at once.

Summary
A powerful all-round option at handling early MOABs and handling normal bloons, especially with the 4-2 crosspath.

Tips

 * Adding many 4/2 Bloonjitsus are extremely reliable against distracting Ceramics and lower bloons, especially in Freeplay Mode.
 * Try to get the Path 2 upgrades because these two upgrades are both really useful for providing both accuracy (via Seeking Shuriken) and a high chance to distract bloons (via Distraction)

Update History (Bloons TD Battles Mobile)
This upgrade used to be indirectly cheaper to get in BTD Battles Mobile thanks to Sharp Shurikens and Double Shot getting their prices decreased. However, since update 4.9 the overall cost to get a 4/x Ninja Monkey is now the same as in BTD5.

4.9

Bloonjitsu price increased ($2750 → $3000).
