Rounds
Round 74
Round 74 in BTD6: 135 Ceramics including 25 camo regrow fortified ones, plus a BFB. RBE, cash and how to beat it.
Guide
Round 74 is a long ceramic round that lasts well over a minute. It starts with 50 plain Ceramics, then sends 25 Ceramics that are Fortified, camo and Regrow at the same time, then a single BFB, and finally 60 Fortified Ceramics.
The middle group is the problem. Fortified Ceramics take twice as much damage to break, camo hides them from towers without detection, and regrow means any you only damage will heal. Players who skipped camo detection on round 67 often lose lives here. The round is worth 18,054 RBE, pays $2,870 from pops plus a $174 bonus and lasts about 82 seconds.
Bloons in round 74
- 50 × Ceramic Bloon (0–20 s)
- 25 × Ceramic Bloon (Fortified, Camo, Regrow) (21.1–41.1 s)
- 1 × BFB (at 43.9 s)
- 60 × Ceramic Bloon (Fortified) (54.9–82.4 s)
How to beat round 74
Make sure your main ceramic killers can see camo before round 74 starts.
- Camo detection: a Monkey Village with Radar Scanner (x-2-x) gives camo detection to everything in range, which is the cheapest fix. Towers with their own detection, such as Elite Sniper, Ultravision Super Monkeys or Monkey Sense Wizards, also work.
- Fortified ceramic damage: use towers with high damage per hit. Plasma Monkey Fan Club ability, Sun Avatar, Glaive Lord boomerangs, Inferno Ring tacks and Wizard Lord Phoenix all chew through Fortified Ceramics.
- The BFB: spawns around the 44-second mark when the track is quiet, so normal MOAB damage handles it.
In CHIMPS, the last group of 60 Fortified Ceramics is long and steady, so it rewards sustained DPS rather than abilities. Save your abilities for rounds 76 and 78.
Alternate Bloons Rounds
The Alternate Bloons Rounds round 74 is easier: 100 Regrow Black Bloons, the same 25 camo regrow fortified Ceramics and a Fortified BFB. It totals only 8,774 RBE, but the Black Bloons are immune to explosions.
- 100 × Black Bloon (Regrow)
- 25 × Ceramic Bloon (Fortified, Camo, Regrow)
- 1 × BFB (Fortified)
