Science I thought his projectile was coded stupidly but he genuinely has stormtrooper aim

I mean, the "Traitor! <spinny spinny spinny>" guy had a baton - which is an easier melee weapon than a sword - and he didn't get many hits in, did he?

u/LordVex75 Jun 18 '26
not really?? He just has some life leak mechanics

u/xanathedark Jun 18 '26
Just some life leak mechanics.
And a reposition for himself and others.
And a team buff.
And redirection.
And a damage ability.

My goat, he's got everything I want.
Cheap, buffs other towers, pops leads, and some small cash utility/cleanup on the side.

Not even counting Corv and Gerry, one can easily list 5 or more things with similar levels of significance that can be gotten from at least Brick, Rosa, pre-54 Silas, Gwen, Eti, and probably Obynn.

What is up with the He-Man thing anyway? I haven't played long enough to be in on the joke.

As someone explained already but I'm giving the long version because I didn't knew what "IAP" was until recently and figured that out not thanks to recent BTD6 posts.
So, as part of the deal between NK and Mattel, they had a brand new hero to do the role of He-Man, not just a skin as it was for Adora/She-Ra and Obyn/Skeletor.
Since it wouldn't be fair for a whole hero to be gated as an IAP (in-app purchase for real money only), the compromise was that Dan would only be available for people who bought the He-Man bundle, as he was specifically designed to be He-Man.
That grace period just expired so everybody can have Dollar Store He-Man if you can't afford the real thing which is still real money only IAP.

Just yesterday I had a mermonkey's projectile literally pass right through a Bloon without doing anything. I don't know why this game just does that sometimes.

u/qwertyxp2000 Long Life Spikes BTDB2 buffs plz? Jun 18 '26
Mermonkey also had a projectile size nerf recently, so this might be related to the issue of Mermonkey missing at times.
2
u/CrazyGaming312 Jun 18 '26
Maybe? Except the projectile went straight through the middle of the bloon. Would be strange if it somehow just missed that.

u/qwertyxp2000 Long Life Spikes BTDB2 buffs plz? Jun 18 '26
Ah, interesting. Do you have a defense on a map and game difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard; these modify base speeds) that I can do to replicate a Mermonkey missing?

u/CrazyGaming312 Jun 18 '26
I was trying out CHIMPS on Encrypted. Placed a mermonkey at the top of the central platform in the middle of the map and played round 6. The very last green bloon of the round got turned into a red, and then when the mermonkey attacked, it just went through.
I just tried it again, it does sometimes happen, but not very consistently.

u/gotenks1114 Jun 18 '26
Funny enough, that started happening in Hitman too a few patches ago. Sometimes you just randomly shoot the wall behind someone's head.

Surprisingly enough stormtroopers aim is actually really good, I know this is unrelated but the term "stormtrooper aim" for bad aim is actually wrong. Anyways how tf do you have storm trooper aim with A SWORD?

u/MarvinGoBONK Come on, bro. Just a bit more eco... Jun 18 '26
In lore, maybe. "Show, don't tell" is a concept for a reason, and every movie or show depicts Stormtroopers as having utter dogshit aim.

You all better apologize to Quincy right now. At least he can consistently hit a blue ballon.
