How to use Seeking Shuriken
Seeking Shuriken gives the Ninja +7 range (about 17.5% more than a base Ninja) and makes its shuriken home in on bloons from any distance with very fast turning. Shurikens that would have missed fast or spread-out bloons now find a target.
When to buy it
At $300 it is a great early buy, especially when bloons come in thin lines or move fast. It is the best crosspath for top path Ninjas (3-0-1, 4-0-1, 5-0-1 or 5-0-2), since homing makes every extra shuriken count.
Middle path Ninjas take it mostly for range, so Shinobi Tactics buffs reach more Ninjas. It also leads into Caltrops and the bomb line.
Homing also stops shurikens from flying past bloons on tracks that curve away from the Ninja, which matters on maps with scattered lanes.
Is it worth it?
Yes. It is cheap, reliable and one of the most common Ninja crosspaths.
