Enforcer

Enforcer adds a shotgun and raises pistol damage from 1 to 6. The shotgun fires three pellets in a 35 degree spread, each with 3 damage and 3 pierce, and fires twice per attack. Pellets can pop frozen Bloons and knock non-MOAB Bloons backwards for a moment, including Leads and Ceramics. The shotgun has a short range (36 units) and the Desperado uses it whenever a Bloon is that close, and the pistol otherwise.

When to buy it

Enforcer is solid single-target damage and Bloon control for its price, and the multiple pellets make it a good target for buffs. Its weakness is low pierce. Unlike the middle path, it wants to sit close to the track so the shotgun stays in use, while still keeping some Wanderer stacks.

The shotgun's range is small enough that supports like an Alchemist can sit nearby without costing Wanderer stacks, which matters more at higher tiers.

Crosspaths:

• 2-0-3 for single targets, thanks to Quickdraw and Standoff.
• 0-2-3 for general damage through crits, and it brings its own Camo detection.

Is it worth it?

Yes as a mid-game control tower and as the step to Avenger. On its own it needs support for dense rounds.
