Achieving Paragon Perfection: A Comprehensive Guide to Degree 100 Paragons in Bloons TD 6

So, you’re aiming for the pinnacle of tower power in Bloons TD 6, the coveted Degree 100 Paragon? Excellent! It’s a challenging but ultimately rewarding goal. Getting there requires a combination of strategic gameplay, careful resource management, and a deep understanding of the game’s mechanics. The key is to maximize the Paragon’s power before you create it, ensuring it spawns at the highest degree possible. It involves meeting certain thresholds in categories like cash spent, pops achieved, and, critically, the number of sacrificed Tier 5 towers and other supporting factors like Paragon Power Totems.

Here’s the bottom line: to reliably create a Degree 100 Paragon, you need to invest significantly in the contributing towers. We’re talking about spending at least 3.15 times the Paragon’s base price on the contributing towers before creating the Paragon, accumulating a whopping 16,200,000 pops across all sacrificed towers (or generating $4,050,000 cash across them), and, especially in single-player mode, utilizing Paragon Power Totems to bridge any gaps. While precise numbers can vary slightly based on difficulty and other factors, consistently hitting these benchmarks will guarantee a Degree 100 Paragon. Let’s dive into the details.

Paragon Power: The Foundation of Degree 100

Understanding the Requirements

The primary drivers for Paragon degree are:

• Cash Investment: Spending a significant amount of money on the towers that will be sacrificed contributes a large chunk of Paragon power. Aim for that 3.15x Paragon price target. This includes all upgrades on the towers that will contribute to the Paragon.
• Pops: Accumulating a large number of pops (balloons destroyed) with the contributing towers is essential. 16,200,000 is the magic number. This requires strategic placement and efficient tower combinations. If you are using a Banana Farm you can use the cash made as a substitute to the 16,200,000 pops needed.
• Tier 5 Sacrifices: The more Tier 5 towers you sacrifice, the better. Generally, having all available Tier 5s of the chosen monkey type is a must.
• Paragon Power Totems (Single Player): These totems offer a direct power boost to the Paragon’s degree. While not strictly required, they significantly increase your chances of reaching Degree 100, especially if you’re slightly short on other metrics. For the Apex Plasma Master, the goal is 20 Totems, but if you are able to afford a second Crossbow Master for the Apex Plasma Master then the goal is 17 Paragon Power Totems.

Maximizing Your Sacrifices

• Planning is Key: Before the round even starts, know which monkey type you’re aiming to Paragon and start building your economy and pop-generating towers accordingly.
• Efficient Farms: Banana farms are critical for generating the cash needed for both upgrades and the 3.15x spending requirement. Optimize your farm placement and upgrade paths for maximum income.
• Targeted Pops: Use towers like Overclock, Ultraboost, and Villages to buff your contributing towers, allowing them to generate more pops quickly.
• Sacrifice Order: The order you place the towers doesn’t matter.
• Difficulty Matters: Higher difficulties generally require more precise execution to achieve the necessary pop counts and cash generation.

Paragon FAQs: All Your Questions Answered

1. Can you get a Degree 100 Paragon in solo play?

Absolutely! Single-player Paragon creation is entirely possible. The Paragon Power Totems are your best friend in this scenario, helping to compensate for any potential gaps in pops or cash investment.

2. How many Paragon Power Totems do you really need for Degree 100?

It depends. If you consistently hit the cash investment and pop benchmarks, you might need fewer. However, aiming for at least 20 totems generally guarantees Degree 100. For the Apex Plasma Master, 17 will work if you have the added power of a 2nd Crossbow Master.

3. What happens if I don’t meet the cash or pop requirements?

You’ll still get a Paragon, but it will have a lower degree. A lower degree Paragon is still a valuable asset, but it won’t have the same power as a Degree 100.

4. Does the placement order of the sacrificed towers matter?

No, the placement order has no impact on the Paragon’s degree.

5. Does difficulty affect Paragon degree?

Yes, higher difficulties generally require a bit more investment in pops and cash to achieve the same Paragon degree as on easier difficulties.

6. What’s the best map for creating a Degree 100 Paragon?

Maps with ample space for both farming and tower placement are ideal. “Cubism” is a popular choice due to its relatively simple layout and large water area.

7. Can Sun Temples sacrifice Paragons?

No, Sun Temples cannot sacrifice Paragons, Heroes, or Powers.

8. What is the next Paragon coming to BTD6?

A Monkey Sub Paragon is planned for a future update, after Version 41.0. It’ll be the third Military Monkey with a Paragon.

9. What is the max Paragon level?

There are an infinite number of Paragon levels, which are different from Paragon degrees. Each level allows you to upgrade various stats.

10. What’s the fastest way to level up Paragon levels?

Farming experience outside of quests and rewards is the fastest way to level up the Paragon levels.

11. How many Super Monkey Fan Clubs are needed for a Degree 100 Paragon?

With 9 additional tier 5 dart monkeys or 45 Paragon Power Totems or a mix of the two, between 20 and 29 (2-4-0) Super Monkey Fan Clubs, and achieving 16,200,000 combined pops across all dart monkeys, you can get a Degree 100 on all difficulties.

12. I didn’t get a Degree 100 Paragon. What can I do?

If you’re playing on a single-player mode, you can exit to the home screen and reload the game. This allows you to try again with adjustments to your strategy.

13. What are the current Paragons in BTD6?

Currently, there are seven Paragons: Apex Plasma Master (Dart Monkey), Glaive Dominus (Boomerang Monkey), Ascended Shadow (Ninja Monkey), Navarch of the Seas (Monkey Buccaneer), Master Builder (Engineer Monkey), Goliath Doomship (Monkey Ace), and Magus Perfectus (Wizard Monkey).

14. Is the Goliath Doomship a good Paragon?

Yes! The Goliath Doomship is a very powerful Paragon, especially with its Carpet Bomb Ability.

15. At what level do you unlock Paragon Boards in Diablo 4?

Paragon Boards in Diablo 4 are unlocked at level 50.

Beyond the Basics: Advanced Strategies

Once you’ve mastered the core requirements, you can start experimenting with more advanced strategies to optimize your Paragon creation:

• Synergy: Focus on synergies between your supporting towers. For example, using a Monkey Village to buff the attack speed and range of your main pop-generating towers.
• Round Management: Carefully manage your income and tower placements to maximize pop generation in the early and mid-game.
• Buffing: Monkey Village, Overclock, Ultraboost, and other support towers will boost the sacrificed towers for higher damage.
• Cash Generation Optimization: Get your farms built up as early as possible to generate as much income as possible.
