“	Acid potions dissolve Bloons faster.	”
	^{~ In-game description}

Stronger Acid is the first upgrade on the second path for the Alchemist in Bloons TD 6. It increases the damage of the acid status effect (and any acid pools formed if that upgrade is purchased) by decreasing its tick rate from 2.0 seconds to 1.5 seconds, and increasing its duration from 4.05 seconds to 4.55 seconds, giving the acid 3 damage ticks instead of 2.

Unlike the name of the upgrade, the Stronger Acid upgrade does not improve Acidic Mixture Dip buffs; rather, its succeeding upgrade does this.

This upgrade costs $210 on Easy, $250 on Medium, $270 on Hard, and $300 on Impoppable.

Description[]

Overview[]

Stronger acid — Alchemist with the Stronger Acid upgrade, splashing purple acid onto bloons

This upgrade gives the Alchemist white gloves. The Alchemist's potions also contain purple acid instead of red acid, which also coats bloons purple. Purple acid dissolves bloons faster and for longer.

Targeting Priorities[]

Stronger Acid throws potions in a lobbed arc at bloons according to targeting priority.

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.

Costs[]

Updated as of Version 46.0. Listed prices exclude external buffs, any sacrifices, and Monkey Knowledge.

Strategy[]

Summary[]

Dissolving bloons faster is useful in the early-game to let the affected bloons pop faster by the acidic damage-over-time effects.

Tips[]

When this upgrade is combined with either Acid Pool or Larger Potions, it becomes a moderately powerful tower early game against grouped bloons.

Trivia[]

Stronger Acid is the only variant of the Alchemist upgrades up to Tier 2 where the monkey has a circular mouth. Perishing Potions has the monkey's mouth obscured by a facemask, and all other upgrades up to Tier 2 have a happy mouth.
