Path 4 Spike Factory
The original idea of Lava Factory originally came from thinking about wanting a Wall of Fire type of Spike Factory, which can counter a majority of its pierce weaknesses. The earlier upgrades was formerly similar to Long Reach but with additional projectile speed as a bonus, but we already have Long Reach, though Long Reach would suit this new path better, in my personal opinion. The idea of Double Dispensing was also in my mind earlier, but didn't quite get the idea out in a document until 25th January 2021.
- 1 Tier 1: Double Dispensing
- 2 Tier 2: Sticky Spikes
- 3 Tier 3: Lava Factory
- 4 Tier 4: Volcanic Generator
- 5 Tier 5: Mini-Vesuvius
- Description: Produces two spike piles every shot.
- Cost: $1200
With Double Dispensing, the Spike Factory produces two spik…
i ranked all 330 upgrades in terms of price and added some other info like tier and the tower that the upgrade belongs to. does anyone want to see a bit of it
[1] yep. i wanted a list like this myself, but I couldn't find one, so i made one myself! first i was only going to do $20,000 or up, then it was everything more expensive than the cheapest 4th tier (juggernaut at $1,800) then it was $1,000, and then eventually i said "screw it, i'll just do all 330 of them.it was tough, and i missed a few that i had to correct later. it took about a week, and it includes 5 rows; including placement, the upgrade name, the tower name, the price, and the tier. there are some pretty big ties on it, and i sincerely hope that you enjoy it!

Balance change suggestions for Version 23.0
Version 22.0 has brought a lot of new changes for the whole meta. Many of these changes have been very welcomed. Dartling Gunner as a whole is fairly balanced too, even on initial release of the tower, although personally the only problems with it right now are the crosspathing benefits. Some changes were hardly welcome, with the only two instances being the base Bomb Shooter pierce decreases and the Exploding Pineapples pierce decreases, although those two nerfs were truly necessary to balance out the powerful MOAB Maulers and Bomber Aces, respectively, which I respect NK's decision for.
The most notable changes that I were pleasantly surprised about the Maim MOAB shrapnel buffs and the 3-2-0 Spiked Balls indirect nerfs. Those two were ver…
All Description Changes for BTD6 22.0
For the purposes of archiving and also making it more accessible to anyone who is looking for such information, here are all 22.0 description changes. Compared to 21.0, there were much fewer changes and most reflected buffs from either the 21.0 or 22.0 Update. Interestingly, the comma in Relentless Glue's description was removed and was the only description that was changed not due to balance. 3 description changes reflected 22.0 balance changes, while 4 description changes reflected 21.0 crosspathing changes. Descriptions were changed for 2 hero levels, 5 upgrades and 1 Monkey Knowledge.

Night of the Living Lead - Lead Round Table
A rough-draft of the data accumulated for this week's odyssey. Any edit suggestions for further improvement would be great. If y'all want to use this as the wiki table for this mechanic, go for it.
Balance change suggestions for Version 22.0
The Version 21.0 changes have made a big difference to a lot of metas.
Glaive Lord + Red Hot Rangs buff was welcomed, something that should've been implemented a while ago to balance the crosspath benefits. As for MOAB Press, it seems fair enough that they nerf the 0-2-4 crosspath and give 2-0-4 a better chance.
I am glad the More Tacks upgrade deserved that +1 damage buff for Rings of Fire and Inferno Rings; it certainly makes that path more complete, better than that awkward DoT damage thing I suggested.
For the Cryo Cannon buffs, I am glad they finally increased the blast radius of Cryo Cannon to make it far better at stalling, but it seems a bit odd that its price hasn't been lowered. However, I acknowledge Ninja Kiwi's desire to make it …
All relevant description changes for BTD6 21.0
For the purposes of archiving and also making it more accessible to anyone who is looking for such information, here are all 21.0 description changes. The only two directly documented changes (Patch Notes) are the Benjamin and Pre-Emptive Strike change. First Strike Capability, Jungle's Bounty and Perma-Spike were the most obscure changes, not having any balance change or documentation attached to them. Faster Shooting (Bucc) was changed erroneously.
Odyssey Suggestion - High HP MOABs
Here's a theme I would like to be added for the next Odyssey some day: High HP MOABs. It's where MOABs have much higher HP. This might be super hard for some players, but I have tried my best to make the Hard Odyssey a much more challenging Odyssey and the Easy Odyssey not too hard while also still maintaining the theme of this particular Odyssey.
Description: All MOAB-class bloons have much more health!
- Easy
Selectable Hero (all heroes enabled), all towers enabled. 16 tower seats, max 30 non-hero towers. 8 power spaces, max 20 powers (all powers enabled).
- Standard Easy Cubism, Rounds 1 to 40 with $900 starting cash. Stronger MOABs (200%).
- Standard Easy Streambed, Rounds 1 to 50 with $950 starting cash. Stronger MOABs (200%).
- Standard Easy Hedge,…
Preferred BMC version
Flash or Mobile? Second city and more detailed MVM vs exclusive monkeys and higher quality? I personally do mobile but I wanna know what you guys think. I was torn between the two but Mobile won out in the end.
Let me know your preferred version down below!
Bloon ideas
The M.E.T.A.L. (Metallic Evil Tough Angry bLimp) has 350 hp and releases 4 lead Bloons (442 RBE).It is immune to all sharp objects and moves 16.67% slower than a red bloon.It first appears on round 54 where 3 of them appear
The S.I.L.V.E.R (Steel Impregnable Large Vengeful Energized monsRosity) has 1225 hp and releases 4 M.E.T.A.L.S (2993 RBE)It is immune to all sharp objects and moves 10% slower than a B.F.B..It first appears on round 75 which 2 of them replaces 2 BFBS.

Disappointed (sort of)
I kind of wish churchill was a tower. A tank tower would've been an amazing addition to the game. Think of all the things that they couldve added as upgrades. Sure, I like churchill, but I definitely prefer tower-churchill.
Balance change suggestions for Version 21.0
Here's a bunch of refreshed suggestions that I would hope will be added to Version 21.0. A few of my old suggestions were incorporated, including the +1 damage buff for the Really Big Bombs and the pierce interaction with 0-3-1 Dragon's Breath. In fact, I'm still not sure whether adding +1 damage without the price nerf still makes Really Big Bombs better than Cluster Bombs, but at least it stands a chance in the RBB vs CB war. The Overclock save state buff was also incorporated, but it seems like a suggestion that most other players wanted too.
MOAB Mauler and Sub Commander gained some pretty decent nerfs, while a number of other towers gained some decent buffs overall. Pretty surprised how little nerfs the MOAB Mauler and Sub Commander bot…
Idea for the Bloon skins at the Trophy Store.
When it comes to the MOAB-class Bloons, instead of a skin only being for one kind of MOAB-class Bloon, how about it is for all five of them? Like, we could let all MOAB-class Bloons be different kinds of pizzas or different kinds of piñatas. That could be fun. What do you think?
Good towers that can detect camo and invisible and pop anything

Pat Fusty gameplay/balance improvement suggestions
(X-Posted from here with reformatting done as necessary. I'm hoping for more positive reception than reddit's usual skimmers would provide.)
Suggested changes (before anybody goes TLDR):
- Clarification on what is going on with Pat's AOE hit missing bloons if that is intended to be a feature
- Rallying Roar to provide self-buff of 1.25x attack rate (or 80%s in terminology reddit user Topper64 uses)
- Rallying Roar L14 to provide buff of 1.25x attack rate (or 80%s), stacking multiplicatively with above (Pat's self-buff to attack time would be a net value of 1.5625x attack rate, or 64%s)
- Rallying Roar L14 Damage Boost 3 -> 2; Original Damage Boost of 3 restricted to L19+ (credit to Qwertyxp2000 for this)
- Rallying Roar L19 to improve self-buff to also ad…
Attack friend option absent on BMC steam/mobile?

In Memory of My Third Path Ideas
Years ago when I first joined this Wiki, I made a promise to post my ideas for a third path for all existing BTD5 towers (it was around the time before the Monkey Engineer debuted in Deluxe). During the creation process, I ended up expanding it to add new upgrades to the Temple of the Monkey God for every tower type sacrificed and 4/4 upgrades for all towers just like the Wizard Lord. Being the perfectionist that I was, I put off posting my work until such time I knew for sure it was perfect. The problem was, it was never perfect. Not to me, at least. When the Monkey Engineer came out, I rewrote a ton of stuff in it. Then Bloons Monkey City happened, which got me wanting to add more stuff. Then serious personal matters came about and I ended u…
Airhorn sound effect
I want the airhorn. Correction: I need the airhorn. But I don't have it since I got to the second odyssey too late and didn't have time to finish, and the third one has half cash (worse then CHIMPS). In the meantime could I have the airhorn sound file?
Official tier list of best strategies ever (ISAB)
A known BTDB player, ISAB in one of his videos ( 20 July 2020 ) says:
Bloons Tower Defense was a good game series with strategies, noobs, glitches and other legendary aspects. But last years (especially about 2 ) was last for Bloons. Yes, BTD 6 are great but BTD in fact died, no no meme with camgrow reds no :) but game yes. Its time to reasume Bloons Monkeys and strategies. I give Our this awesome tier list to do this and have some fun:)
-ISAB
ISAB was created the very huge and nice list with tiers F, A, B, C, D, E, and T (from Tornado Wizard (meme, ISAB says)). Tier list has totally 13 668 strategies, numbered by rank and tier. Strategies most oftenare towers, upgrades, upgrade combinations and others. ISAB was having a tricky work .

Balance change suggestions for Version 20.0
Here's a bunch of refreshed suggestions that I would hope will be added to Version 20.0. Although none of the balance suggestions from me were incorporated, I would hope that these changes be added to make the game a little more interesting.
MOAB Domination, Spiked Balls, and Bank Deposits received some changes that I believe make them all pretty balanced overall.
Some of the ones I made from the earlier one are removed and replaced due to the changes in the game.
- Dart Monkey
- Super Monkey Fan Club and Plasma Monkey Fan Club transformations on nearby Dart Monkeys now accept range buffs (i.e. 40 base range plus the Path 3 range crosspaths)
- Plasma Monkey Fan Club base attack attacks 50% faster.
- Plasma Monkey Fan Club ability duration increased (15s…
Suggestions for Odyssey Mode Week 2
I personally think next week's Odyssey Mode this time have non-standard game modes for harder difficulties.

Oddessy (story) Mode ideas.
NK added "Oddessy Mode" to BTD 6 as a kind of story mode, and here are some ideas to improve it:
Oddessies are all permanent, instead of being an event.
A Boss Bloon at the end of each Oddessy (Reworked for BTD 6).
Custom rounds with some custom bloons.
The ability to recall monkeys from previous levels (Like in The Battle For Wesnoth) through the powers screen for 3/4 of the original cost (including upgrades). As a result, powers and insta-monkeys can't be used.
Special boss music (Like Ocarina Time from BMC for Dreadbloon, and the BTD5 Volcano theme for Blastapopoulos.)
An encyclopedia with an entry for every bloon (including the boss bloons).
Ideas for custom bloons:
PDDT (Bloonarius Oddessy) A DDT that has the purple bloon properties instead o…
Challenge editor crash

"Axis of..." Completion List
This is a list of all the Axis of... challenges I have attempted in CHIMPS Mode.
I have listed only those that are realistically possible, along with the overall cost of the towers combined. This list will contain what maps I have attempted the runs on as well as the difficulty of the challenge altogether post completion.
Criteria for Completion:
I have my own rules for which I abide by when it comes to completing the Axis of... challenge. For a start, all Tier 5 towers must be purchased BEFORE Round 100 is beaten. The final Tier 5 can be purchased during Round 100, but not after the BAD has been beaten. Secondly, it is not required to complete CHIMPS Mode to clear the Axis of... challenge. However, I will pursue to beat Round 100 regardless befor…
Sub Commander rebalancing ideas
(Basically crossposted from here.)
Sub Commander Stats:
- Cost: $30875 (T2 Crosspath: $31505; M2 Crosspath: $31625)
- Range: 42 (T1 Crosspath: 52)
- Camo: See Notes; otherwise, No
- Dart: 4 Damage, effective 1 Pierce (becomes Airburst on hit), x2 MOAB Damage
- Airburst: 2 Damage, 10 Pierce (M1 Crosspath: 13 Pierce), x2 MOAB Damage
- Attack Speed: 60/8
- Other: Command buff has all nearby Subs get x2 Damage to all attacks and +5 Pierce to Dart/Airburst (buff targeting includes self; stats above account for that)
- Notes: T2 allows for hitting enemies in other towers' registered ranges and Camo in Camo detecting towers' registered ranges; M2 allows for damaging Lead/Frozen
Recently, many people have voted Sub Commander to be the most OP tower in the game. After overv…

Balance change suggestions for Version 19.0
This morning, I made a bunch of balance change suggestions that may help improve my experience of BTD6.
- Dart Monkey
- Super Monkey Fan Club and Plasma Monkey Fan Club transformations on nearby Dart Monkeys now accept range buffs (i.e. 40 base range plus the Path 3 range crosspaths)
- Plasma Monkey Fan Club base attack attacks 50% faster.
- Plasma Monkey Fan Club ability duration increased (15s → 20s)
- Plasma Monkey Fan Club ability cooldown decreased (50s → 45s)
- Plasma Monkey Fan Club base attack pierce and transformation pierce increased by +2
- If there are fewer than 20 eligible Dart Monkeys on the field, Plasma Monkey Fan Club ability will summon a number of weaker Plasma Monkeys on the field that are exactly the same as base Plasma Monkeys but deal 1…
Potential New MK for Version 18.0
There could be some interesting new MK that could make for some spicy new changes in gameplay:
- Primary
- Double Ranga (Primary MK, requires Long Turbo, 10 MK unlocks, 1000) – Glaive Lord now shoots two boomerangs at once.
- Would make for some spicy way to incorporate some of the old Premium Upgrades into BTD6 while being not too OP. It would make Glaive Lord that much stronger, especially combined with the new shred-from-first-bloon mechanic, but it's not going to be that OP overall considering the high pricetag of both the MK and the Glaive Lord. It will shred BADs pretty well now, but not really much power for all the other rounds.
- Tack Awesomizer (Primary MK, requires Mega Mauler, Long Turbo, and Violent Impact, 10 MK unlocks, 500) – All tacks fr…
I am issuing a new challenge to all BTD6 players who accept!
OK, I may be a nobody in the world of Bloons, but I would like to challenge anyone who reads this to a challenge!
And it's a very straight forward one: get 16 buff icons on one tower at once!
Simple... WRONG!
Only ONE tower in a standard single-player game can have 16 buff icons active at once, and that is Favored Trades. And it is NOT cheap! You need the following towers to even REMOTELY pull it off:
- Carrier Flagship
- Trade Empire
- Sun Temple with more $1000 worth of Support sacrifices
- Berserker Brew
- 2 different Monkey Villages AT LEAST; one Call to Arms and one Monkey City
- Central Market
- Ultraboost
- And either Gwendolin, Benjamin, Ezili or Pat Fusty as your Hero.
Running quick mathematics... you're looking at around $300,000 for everything! That's a lo…
Legit Freeplay scores.
We all have a round record, and I bet for many it's past round 100. The question is, how many have a legit freeplay score? How many have used continues, cash drops, and super monkey storms to get there? I survived to round 132, singleplayer, legit. My score, however, is 131. I want to see your scores, and how you got there. Please post your high scores here, and please provide a video. The vid is for proof and so I can see how you did it.
Score: The rounds are your main points, but you also gain or lose points based on the track and difficulty.
Easy/beginner(-deflation mode): -5

BTD6 Monkey City Upgrade Effect Learned
Guys, I just worked out how the new v17.0 buff to the X-X-4 Monkey Town upgrade - Monkey City - functions.
It DOESN'T affect all monkeys... it ONLY affects - get this - Monkey Farms.
I noticed during a very dodgy round of Apopalypse mode on Firing Range that the Monkey Banks I was putting down (I was using Benjamin as my hero) had an extra buff icon on then. It resembled the Monkey City upgrade but had a cash crate instead of a Dart Monkey. At first, I thought it meant that the tower was in range for Monkeyopolis sacrifice, but that didn't make sense. The icons are meant to indicate buffs, not 'in-range-to-be-removed.'
So I took to Sandbox mode on a different map and placed down both a 0-0-3 Monkey Town and a 0-0-4 Monkey City and placed a 0…
BTD6 Mod Idea: Crosspath Chaos
I've been sitting on this idea for a mod for BTD6 (or even a potential idea for BTD7) for a while, and I figured now would be the best time to reveal it and talk about it.
I call it Crosspath Chaos.
The rules and mechanics of this mod are simple: ALL upgrades and crosspaths are open to purchase at all times, regardless of which upgrades have been bought prior. In other words, even if you have already purchased an upgrade on two separate upgrade paths, you can still purchase the an upgrade on the remaining upgrade path.
There's just one catch: you can only buy 6 upgrades at any given time!
Allow me to give you some examples of what this means and how this would work:
- For Tier 1 and 2 upgrades, you are able to purchase any and/or all of at will as l…
New Bug?
So,when I was playing Bloons Tower Defense 6 a few days ago,the update came out.And well,I think its pretty good.But,with the update,I lost my saved 2832$ in Monkey Money.Now,I would play maps to get more,but now I realized something.In order to get max Monkey Knolegde,you need to beat every map in the game with easy,primary,and deflation.Whyis this such a big deal?That means the game is now WAYYYYY more farm-heavy.For those that have already gotten max Monkey Knowledge,good job.Now the others have to suffer.I lost all my saved monkey money,and I lost a lot of the fun in the game.an somebody tell me something that I can do?Because this is veryy irratating.I can understand if Hero Monkey Knowledge requires money,but even still,its very unba…
Added something!
I added to the big bloon blueprint knowdledge so it say it benefit more to level 4+ adora due to her shooting mutiple bolts at once
If this is wrong pls dont block me because i think that is how it works
Druid is best Waifu
I like to think druid is female mainly because of her face in T1 and T2 Top Path, T3 Middle Path, and T5 Top Path.
Superstorm looks like a goddess, and normally goddesses are good waifus.
BATTD: A New Undiscovered Secret...
Actually, I don't know if this secret really IS undiscovered, but it's not mentioned here on the Wiki, so I'm just going to assume it is.
So I was just doing one of the Bloon Beaon challenges in BATTD, when I accidentally discovered something incredible! There is a hidden, secret synergy between Supermonkey and Captain Cassie. And it's actually really REALLY good!
How it works is simple:
- Place Supermonkey in range of Captain Cassie. You may want to farm for cash using stuff like Finn and Jake's Brofist upgrade, BMO, and so on, because you will need a LOT of money for this.
- Upgrade Captain Cassie to Bloon Pillage (requires Captain Cassie to be Level 5), and Supermonkey to Sun Avatar.
- Select Captain Cassie. You will notice that a new upgrade that…
