Round 71
Round 71 in BTD6: 30 Ceramics and 10 tightly packed MOABs. RBE, cash, spawn timings and how to beat it, plus the ABR version.
Guide
Round 71 is a short MOAB round. Thirty Ceramic bloons trickle in over about 16 seconds, and in the middle of that stream ten MOABs arrive roughly half a second apart. Nothing in the round is camo, lead or fortified, so any defence that survived rounds 63 to 70 normally has the raw power for it.
The real test is the MOAB line. Ten blimps popping close together release 40 Ceramics in one spot while the original Ceramic stream is still coming. The round is worth 9,280 RBE, pays $1,332 from pops plus a $171 end-of-round bonus and lasts about 17 seconds.
Bloons in round 71
- 30 × Ceramic Bloon (0–16.6 s)
- 10 × MOAB (4.4–9.4 s)
How to beat round 71
You need steady single-target damage for the MOABs and area damage right where they die.
- MOAB damage: a 2-5-0 Elite Sniper, a MOAB Mauler or MOAB Assassin bomb, a Sticky Bomb ninja or a Sun Avatar all melt 200-health MOABs quickly. MOAB Glue slows the line down and spreads the pops out.
- Ceramic clean-up: every MOAB drops four Ceramics. Place your best pierce (Glaive Lord style boomerangs, Plasma Fan Club darts, Ring of Fire tacks, a Sun Avatar) so it covers the part of the track where the MOABs usually pop.
- Buffs: a Monkey Village with Jungle Drums and an Alchemist Berserker Brew make the same towers noticeably stronger for the 70s.
In CHIMPS this round is a useful check. If MOABs from round 71 get far down the track, your defence is not ready for the much denser rushes on rounds 76 and 78, so spend the cash on more ceramic damage now.
Alternate Bloons Rounds
In Alternate Bloons Rounds the layout is the same, but every Ceramic is Fortified and Regrow and every MOAB is Fortified, doubling its health to 400. RBE rises to 11,980 and you need noticeably more MOAB damage.
- 30 × Ceramic Bloon (Fortified, Regrow)
- 10 × MOAB (Fortified)
