Flamethrower Monkey (Bloons Tower Defense 8)

The Flamethrower Monkey is a tower introduced in Bloons TD 8 as a Magic tower. It uses a short range flamethrower that deals 1 damage on hit to Bloons then 1 damage per tick for 3 seconds (1 tick = 1 second). It pops Lead and Frozen automatically but not Camo and Purple. It has high pierce, making it viable against groups of stronger Bloons like Zebra Bloons. It has quick firerate but fire effects do not stack. If a Bloon gets hit by 2 attacks, it doesn't have the fire effect for 6 seconds as 3 x 2 would show. A Flamethrower Monkey costs $645 on Easy, $750 on Medium, $810 on Hard, and $900 on Impoppable.
