Shoots incredibly fast.

Overdrive

Overdrive is the 4th upgrade on Path 3 of the Tack Shooter in Bloons TD Battles 2. It gives a 3x attack speed increase compared to Tack Sprayer and +1 pierce, like its BTD6 counterpart. However, the cost is increased to account for its high single-target prowess and general fast attack speed.

Crosspaths improve Overdrive's performance. It attacks every 0.35s, cooldown decreased to every 0.2625s (+33%) with 1-0-4 and 0.1575s with 2-0-4 (+66%, +122% overall attack speed). Pierce by +1 with 0-2-4, and range by +4 each Path 2 crosspath.

It costs $3,400, and is unlocked by default.

Strategy[]

Summary[]

An extremely fast attacker that shreds MOAB-class and does decent weaker grouped bloon damage. It can decrease the strength of grouped rushes, chipping off layers; this is mostly useful to assist a Ring of Fire to not waste pierce on Purples.

Tips[]

  • 2-0-4 is better than 0-2-4, as Overdrive already gains a reasonable pierce boost.

Countermeasures[]

Version History[]

Initial release (compared to BTD6 during Version 28.0)
  • BUFF [bug] Overdrive now gains +1 pierce
    • JoeyRainstorm from Ninja Kiwi stated that this is a bug, and should only apply to 0-3-2 Blade Shooter.
1.0.4
  • NERF Overdrive base pierce decreased (3 → 2)
1.5.0
  • BUFF No longer requires 8750 XP to unlock. Players who have unlocked this upgrade before the update will not receive a full refund.
2.0.4
  • NERF Overdrive cost increased ($3200 -> $3400)
Tack still feels a little bit too strong overall, so we are making some small changes to its tier 4 upgrades that have proven to be efficient. [...]

Trivia[]

  • Overdrive is the only Path 3 Tack that doesn't directly involve extra projectiles, just extra attack speed.
