Description[]
Overview[]
Echosense Precision seeking trident
Echosense Precision adds a pink orb to the upper base of the trident. The Mermonkey's eyes are now blackened, likely due to exchanging direct vision for echolocation.
Echosense Precision grants camo detection to the Mermonkey, and allows its tridents to seek out Bloons.
Targeting Priorities[]
Echsense Precision targets bloons using the standard targeting priorities. Its trident attack shoots straight movement projectiles.
- First: Targets the first bloon visible within its range.
- Last: Targets the last bloon visible within its range.
- Close: Targets the closest bloon visible within its range.
- Strong: Targets the strongest bloon visible within its range.
Echosense Precision does not add the Camo Prioritization targeting option.
