Acidic Mixture Dip is the second upgrade of Path 1 for the Alchemist. It allows the Alchemist to throw separate potions every 10 seconds at towers that boost their popping power. These special potions sent at towers allow affected towers to pop Lead Bloons (but will not grant popping of Frozen Bloons) and deal +1 damage to Ceramic and MOAB-class bloons for the next 10 shots, and can be stacked up to have more Acidic Mixture Dip-buffed shots. Unlike Berserker Brew, the chosen target is selected randomly.
It costs $295 on Easy, $350 on Medium, $380 on Hard, and $420 Impoppable.
Tips
Edit
- Unlike Berserker Brew, this buff has no maximum per tower and does not expire by time. Thus, the number of buffed shots stored in a tower can be arbitrarily high.
- As long as there are no other towers in range of the Acidic Mixture Dip Alchemist, its acid potions can sustain towers of attack speed of less than one attack per second.
- This synergy is especially notable on Perma-Spike, which allows it to cheaply pops DDTs.
- Caltrops that are on the track will not wear out its Acidic Mixture Dip if the original tower's Acidic Mixture Dip wears out. In fact, Caltrops that were affected by Acidic Mixture Dip will retain its bonuses until consumed or destroyed.
- In a similar way, Permaspike can have essentially permanent lead-popping and DDT-popping power just by having an Acidic Mixture Dip Alchemist in range. This is the strongest use of this tower.

TriviaEdit
- There was formerly a misconception that Acidic Mixture Dip would only apply up to 30 attacks. However, this is not true.
