High Energy Beacon

High Energy Beacon was released on Mar 22, 2012, being the current final upgrade of the path 1 for the Monkey Village, replacing the Energy Beacon which did not have the laser beam. It costs $10200 on Easy, $12000 on Medium and $12960 on Hard. All towers within its range with Special Abillities have their cooldowns reduced by 20% and the village itself gets a powerful energy beam attack. This beam doesn't stop and the locked Bloon loses all its layers very quickly. This upgrade also increases the range of the Monkey Village.

Trivia

 * Whenever this tower loses it's target for a bloon, it will zap the left side of the screen.
 * One of these can destroy a M.O.A.B. without help on The Rink. Three can destroy a B.F.B., and eight can destroy a Z.O.M.G..
 * The laser generator appears to be inside a robotic eye, that even spins and blinks.
 * In the iOS version, the eye appears to be hyper-realistic and the beam is also purple.
 * This pops 6 layers per frame.
