MOAB Eliminator (BTDB2)

BTDB2

“	Assassinate ability deals 6x damage with a short cooldown.	”
	^{~ BTDB2 description}

MOAB Eliminator is the 5th upgrade on Path 2 of the Bomb Shooter in Bloons TD Battles 2. It is similar to its BTD6 counterpart, with some differences.

MOAB Eliminator's improved ability functions similarly to MOAB Assassin, but increases its base damage and activated ability, boosting the ability's damage to 4,500 and reducing its cooldown to 10 seconds instead of 30 seconds, which makes its ability more viable against tougher MOAB-Class Bloons, especially versus ZOMGs and BADs. Like MOAB Assassin, MOAB Eliminator's ability missile is locked on Strong and cannot soak blimp layers.

MOAB Eliminator’s main missile additionally deals even more damage versus MOAB-class Bloons to 200 damage per shot, as well as now popping bloons with Black Bloon properties, including visible DDTs, even without 0-5-2 crosspath. Camo detection is still required for it to target DDTs at all.

It costs $25,000, and is unlocked with the other tier 5 Bomb Shooter upgrades for 1500.

Strategy[]

Summary[]

High single-target blimp damage, mainly with ability. It also packs a lot of grouped MOAB-class damage in a single upgrade.

Tips[]

Crosspaths don’t affect the ability, but choose the 2-5-0 crosspath to lay waste on many densely clumped blimps to maximise damage. All crosspaths of MOAB Eliminator already pop Black properties, so 0-5-2 mainly just offers more range.

“	Bomb Shooter has fallen in popularity recently, and MOAB Eliminator is not considered to be a particularly effective option for dealing with MOAB threats. We are buffing the main attack of this upgrade so that it can be a more reliable tower against late game rushes.	”
