Ok I know bloodthirsty doesn't mean they drink blood but. How does bloons kill monkeys. Like how they are made of rubber and the monkeys have special artillery vehicles magic and literal gods.
@@mrmich1304 its called community stupidity. The original lore behind bloons td1 was a sport - like how you kick a ball around, the monkeys pop bloons and compete as a team to clear rounds. Now the idots who make up majority of the fanbase turned it into a war because they've played too many violent games and are incapable of thinking otherwise.
@@mrmich1304 they tie ropes around their necks and hang them in the sky, they do this for buildings in Bloons POP so it’s safe to assume this is how they kill monkeys
maim moabs are still better, supply drop is one of the best tier 4 in the game but it's a little worse if you don't have the cash crate to help you out
The Elite Sniper is actually very good with round 76. The bouncing bullet is incredible and for some reason his attack speed is pretty fast if you get a 2-5-0 tower. Give it a try sometime!
Ive commented this before but ill post it again: I think it'd be cool if you reviewed the map at the end of round 100 to show us what tier 5 put in the most damage, as well as how useful the hero was.
I don’t know if you know this but elite targeting means strongest ballon/moab, and then if anything passes 75% of map immediately targets first by itself. It’s really good for Elite Defending since it’s passive is more attack speed that farther the balloons are. Edit: I’m a sniper nerd in BTD6 😅
pretty sure they made it that additionally to the 4x speed bonus for lost lives, the elite defender gains attack speed AS bloons travel. So if the furthest bloon made it e.g. 50% through the map, he gains 50% more attack speed.
Still waiting for the sniper paragon, just imagine how fun it would be having 3 pretty cheap 5 tiers then having to spend like 700k for the most OP insta kill infinite range hitscan tower in BTD history
Shrapnels come out whichever direction bouncing bullets are bouncing each time they bounce. That's why you saw them coming out backwards from the top that time.
because of the way super ceramics work (high hp, pop into non-duplicating bloons), the best non-5th tier super ceram popper is actually a full auto large caliber
One of the achievements regarding Snipers was to have one of each tier-5 Sniper on the game in Chimps mode. I thought it would be incredibly hard due to budget but all it takes is a very long map as a stepping stone to succeed.
Axis of havoc is one of the meta strats if you know how to play with snipers, I think it might be one of the best strat for bloody puddles although I'm not sure if the strat includes cripple moab, propably yes
@@benadrylion4678 it should work as it has infinite range but they attack very slow and is still affected by line of sight. I still would want to use it though.
All t5 snipers is actually not only a very viable, but very powerful strat. You can beat advanced and expert chimps maps with it. Although top path t5 usually isnt needed. 420 already stuns like crazy.
I'd Love a Sniper Monkey Paragon that ends up being themed after Master Chief or the Doom Slayer OR one of the Predators from the movies, weapons themed after theirs, and abilities too (gauss turrets that one shot down a line and flame thrower shoulder mounts, or throwing grenades while shooting, etc etc)
I consider the sniper one of the most significant additions to the BTD series. In BTD4 there was a lack of cheap and fast firing towers that could take out lead bloons reasonably fast. I play BTD5 so the sniper doesn't have things like shrapnel shot and the super cripple moab thing, maim moab is cripple moab in 5. I imagine it would be possible to get quite far in a normal gameplay using only snipers, you just have to have a LOT of them and make sure you get the target priorities set correctly.
@@PiotrBarcz Elite Defender is really strong tower and if you upgrade it to 2-0-5, it becomes good at damaging single targets. 0-2-5 is better for crowds of bloons. Polska?
@@fangier0 Indeed, I think I once used a shrapnel elite defender for doing a lot of spray damage. The lack of lead popping power is a problem though (also, yes I'm from poland and speak polish xD)
Fun fact: 025 sniper with alchemist touch are great for least tiers in contested territory. You can solo up to 68 or higher with them. Note, you do need to proc it's life loss on 63, but you can toggle first to strong to pad the Bloons away from the front, then switch back to first when you leak yellows.
Elite Defender got nerfed too because with discount villages, you can actually afford an Elite Defender on Deflation mode (or at least you could?). It leaves you with basically no cash left and- assuming lead popping power- solos up to round 60.
10:00 X-4-X Sniper (Supply Drop) can pop both lead and camo still. You could’ve made him X-4-2 so he’ll still have some speed instead of 2-4-X And yeah they did nerf the X-X-4 which sucks that he can’t pop leads anymore
This doesn't matter in CHIMPS mode much but the teir4 supply drop upgrade gives the sniper lead popping power it also says that in its upgrade description so if you can afford the teir4 supply drop upgrade before camo leads and DDT's then going for a 0-4-2 or 0-5-2 sniper then it will be very good for the play through.
My personal opinion with sniper towers is a 2-0-5 sniper, but that’s only if you’re going to get another way to give it camp detection. If not it lacks with most rounds, but can be made up for using other towers.
024 Sniper is better than a 204 when it comes to a lot of bloons. 204 is only good for individual damage towards one target since it does 7 damage per shot but that’s only for one bloon. 024 with shrapnel shot does hella damage to more bloons.
The elite defender doesn't get lead popping power, ninja kiwi nerf the whole path instead of fully auto rifle Also the monkey knowledge only makes the elite defender life lost cooldown to be none But keep on your great work SJB, love your content
another thing I THINK most people forget is that the middle path for sniper increases attack speed by lowering how long it takes for them to reload making 5-2-0 the better path as compared to 5-0-2
So snipers are my most used tower, it’s boomerangs that I tend to forget about. I guess this makes us opposites. I have started trying to use them more though since watching you beat chimps with boomerangs.
Hi Chris! Would you please consider enabling the large cursor in the options? Sometimes I'm not sure what monkey you are referring to when you point to it and I'm watching ya on my phone. Thanks!
a bunch of 5-0-2 snipers are fantastic against MOABs. 5-2-0 for DDTs. Regular bloons, a mix of 0-2-5 and 0-5-2. With 12 snipers split evenly between these 4, you can make it through rnd 100
Its good to have elite defender on elite targeting, it increases its firing rate and its strong auto then when bloons are 75-85% of the path he focus on first
Sounds to me like you'd be interested in the 2-part Behind the Bastards on Juvvie. The first part is called "The Cash for Kids Scandal" and the second is "The Child Prisons of Texas".
I’d go for 205 on Strong for DPS, 250 on First for cleanup and camo, and 502 for the stun, the rest is probably gonna be bouncing bullets or maim moabs.
As a battles 2 enjoyer, I primarily spam full auto snipers to last for a very long time against my foes. After equally distributing the cross paths for a while, I then invest all money into 2-0-4 snipers. I also get a 2-5-0 to buff the attack speed of all snipers, making elite defender a godsend of a t5.
2-0-5 elite defender is actually better, it has higher popping power and can clear moabs or large groups of rainbows a lot faster, the only weakness it has is camo detection which you can solve with a village
The deflation nerf was because you could get Elite defender for it. No one ever soloed deflation with the 4th tier, it was a full 025 sniper for deflation before the nerf.
2-0-5 is goated for popping power, 5-0-2 because MOABS are just not a problem anymore and you have beaten everything until BADs. Of course, you're gonna need a Town for camo detection.
Me: oh, cool I love cash drop Then: oh wait, chimps. Anyways. Didn't watch it yet, but you better bring an x5x sniper monkey to buff your other ones haha
Sniper: "Boom. Headshot." Sniper: "Snipin's a good job, mate! It's challengin' work, outta doors. I guarantee you'll not go hungry-" Sniper "-'cause at the end of the day, long as there's two people left on the planet, someone is gonna want someone dead." Sniper: "Ooh." Sniper: "Dad? Dad, I'm a- Ye- Not a "crazed gunman", dad, I'm an assassin! ...Well, the difference bein' one is a job and the other's a mental sickness!" Sniper: "I'll be honest with ya: my parents do not care for it." Sniper: "I think his mate saw me." Sniper: "Yes, yes he did!" Sniper: "Feelins'? Look mate, you know who has a lot of feelings?" Sniper: "Blokes that bludgeon their wife to death with a golf trophy. Professionals have standards." Sniper: "Be polite." Sniper: "Be efficient." Sniper: "Have a plan to kill everyone you meet." Sniper: "Dad.... Dad p-, yeah - put Mum on the phone!"
Hey SJB! Personally, when I hear only this tower, I assume just that tower. For the thumbnails, could you put the hero you're using with the selected Tower of the Day? And maybe you can do indepth videos on towers and what they can do, and what innate abilities they do as well. Fast times to get certain towers or Tier 5's like Prince of Darkness or Prime Apache. Love your videos! Been a fan before you revealed yourself and your name, the only Bloons youtuber I watch actually.
the elite defender mk is actually for the retaliation cooldown, because the retaliation has a cooldown (im not sure what it is) so if the retaliation effect goes away, but the cooldown is still there, then you wont get that buff again
I actually had a sniper start strat on logs chimps where I used a single sniper to go into adora on I think round 13, though that was over a year ago now.
I use a lot of sniper in my game and in my opinion I think that a 0-5-2 with targeting first its the best sniper in the game… I would love to see you trying or testing my teory
Hey SJB, I don’t know if you’re reading this but I’m watching while I’m sick with a cold and I just want to thank you for uploading. I appreciate your videos😁
Did you know that if you get a 4-2-0 or 5-2-0 sniper the shrapnell also stuns moabs for 66% of the duration of the normal shot? That was added in a recent update.
SJb, the bottom path is meant for moab damage, 042 is the best for bloon popping, the 040 gives lead and the bottom path id best for bloons since it makes bouncing bullets happen like 2xs more with the faster firing.
