Mercenary

Mercenary
Mercenaries have powerful dart rifles that fire at 1/3 the speed of a Super Monkey, but much faster than, for example, a dart monkey.While they aren't particularly strong, having only 1/3 of the Super Monkey's attack speed, they are definitely stronger than Dart Monkeys and Boomerang Monkeys. They have a variety of upgrades to increase their lethality. Overall, they are meant to be more of an early to mid-game tower before you get better ones, that is, unless you upgrade them.

Pros:

 * Pretty fast attack speed for price
 * For 1/3 of a Super Monkey's attack speed, his price is decent
 * Has more popping power than a Super Monkey per dart
 * Good early game
 * Camo detection is much easier to obtain than a Super Monkey
 * High health

Cons:

 * Once you get stronger towers, he becomes less useful
 * Inaccurate
 * Struggles with very tough targets

Appearance
Mercenaries are standard brown monkeys with black berets, black ammo clips strung across their stomach, black boots, a black belt, black fingerless gloves, and a dark grey standard assault rifle, similar to the one used by the 0/5/0 Heli-Pilot Marine. He also has a dark grey bulletproof vest and dark grey shoulder pads.
