Temple of the Monkey God

''This is about the Temple of the Monkey God in Bloons TD 5. Were you looking for the Monkey Temple in Bloons TD 4 Expansion''?

"The Temple demands sacrifice. Its arsenal of unstoppable bloon destruction is enhanced and modified by the types of towers sacrificed. Use at your own peril."

- BTD5 Description

Temple of the Monkey God (alternate name Sun God Temple or Monkey God Temple) is the final upgrade of the Super Monkey on Path 1. It is the most expensive upgrade in BTD5, costing $85,000 in Easy, $100,000 in Medium, $108,000 on Hard. When Sun God is upgraded to Temple, everything in the range of the Sun God will disappear and is sacrificed. Sacrifices are what makes this tower worth its price. If you buy this upgrade with another one within range, the other one will disappear, so try to space them out if you buy multiple ones.

The Temple Of The Monkey God can be unlocked once the user reaches rank 32 and when the player gets enough XP after he/she gets the Robo Monkey. Note that the temple requires some sacrifice to effectively defeat bloons. The temple can attack Camo Bloons regardless of upgrades or sacrifices.

Sacrifices
To build the best temple, sacrifice:

$30000 of Mortars or Bomb Towers. This is simply 6 strong golden missiles. This is a lot more effective in destroying bloons and does huge damage to MOAB-class bloons.

$10000 worth of Ice Towers. It produces a strong ice shot which damages MOAB-class bloons and freezes any non MOAB-class bloon.

$10000 of Glue Gunners produces a strong glue blob. It is simply corrosive glue frequently shot out of the Monkey Temple, also doing damage to MOAB-class bloons.

$10000 of Monkey Apprentices produces a tornado capable of blowing bloons back. This does damage to MOAB-class bloons.

$30000 of other towers. This produces blades shot around in a 360 circle, each blade popping 360 bloons

Trivia

 * A Temple of the Monkey God will not attack until its construction animation has finished.
 * Temple of the Monkey God is the most expensive upgrade in the game.
 * Sacrificing another Temple (regardless how strong it was) is not a wise move. The old Temple adds almost nothing to the new Temple except the ability to shoot 16 blade volleys, as the old Temple $85,000/$100,000/$108,000.
 * During its construction animation (before the head pops up), there is a picture of a skull on the Temple.Btd53122012skullontotmg.png
 * You can see lightning bolts when the head is popping up
 * All special agent towers apart from Bloonberry Bush can be sacrificed, but they only add a blade attack.
 * The Temple of the Monkey God is the largest tower in Bloons Tower Defense 5.
 * The maximum number of Temples you could possibly fit into one track is 24, but reality testing shows that number is only theroretical.
 * The Temple of the Monkey god upgraded to 4,2 without sacrificing any tower take 9 seconds to destroy a M.O.A.B completely and 37 for a B.F.B, making it less powerful than the Technological Terror.
 * You used to be able to place other towers much closer to TOTMGs so more towers could be fit onto the map and higher highscores were possible. Since this change it makes it much more difficult if not impossible to beat the old all-time highscores.
 * The good thing about the Monkey Temple is its sacrifice ability. Without sacrificing anything, the Temple does only slightly more damage than a Sun God.
 * Don't be afraid to sacrifice towers to this cause, because they will reach full potential if they are sacrificed to the temple. After the god rises out of the temple, you can't sacrifice any more towers to the temple.
 * The temple of the monkey god is arguably the greatest & most expensive weapon in tower defense history, because the abilities that it can get through it's sacrificing ability+the power of it's sun beam can take down even the ZOMG in a few seconds when used to full potential.
 * Blade volleys are very helpful. They do extra damage to M.O.A.B class bloons, can pop 4 layers of bloons and have high penetration.
 * The Temple also appears (albeit in a much less powerful form) as a secret in BTD4 Expansion.

How to put Temples near each other
Here is a slideshow on how to place TOTMGs near each other with out having them suck up each other. Note: Only towers that have their centers within range of the super monkey get sacrificed.
