'''Bomb Blitz''' is the [[Bomb Shooter (BTD6)|Bomb Shooter]]'s path 3 tier 5 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases the damage of all attacks by +3 (5 damage, 6 with 2-0-5), increases the Bomb Shooter's attack speed by +66.67%, and allows the Bomb Shooter to always shoot recursive bombs, as opposed to only in every other shot. Additionally, it grants a passive ability that activates upon losing lives or leaking a Bloon, damaging all Bloons on screen.

== Bomb Storm Ability ==
== Bomb Storm Ability ==
Bomb Storm is a passive ability, meaning it cannot be directly triggered by the player. Instead, it automatically triggers when any lives are lost or a Bloon is about to leak, if it is available (lives tanked by {{BTD6 mk|Mana Shield}} and [[Corvus (BTD6)|Corvus]]' [[Soul Barrier]] count). This ability deals 2,000 damage to {{BTD6|BFB}}s, {{BTD6|ZOMG}}s, {{BTD6|DDT}}s, {{BTD6|BAD}}s, or [[Boss Bloon]]s on screen, then deals 9,999,999 damage to other Bloon types, including [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloons]]. Both damages soaks through MOAB-Class layers. The leaked Bloon takes no lives if it can take enough damage to be popped by the Bomb Storm. This ability has a 75 second cooldown and a 25 second initial cooldown.

This ability has a 60 second cooldown and a 20 second initial cooldown.


[[Ezili (BTD6)|Ezili]]'s Totem and [[Lych]]'s Soul also count as lives lost and will trigger the ability.

Bomb Blitz's passive ability functions like an effective {{BTD6|Tsar Bomba}}. Provided it does enough damage to completely destroy the leaking Bloons, it is able to avoid life loss after leaking, making it a valuable T5 in [[CHIMPS]]. Its infinite pierce allows it to become an outstanding method of destroying many Bloons at once, including in [[Race]] conditions, [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]]'s minions, and [[Dreadbloon (BTD6)|Dreadbloon]]'s [[Dreadrock Bloon]]s on [[Boss Rush]]. However, its very long passive ability cooldown makes the Bomb Blitz passive challenging to optimize, preventing constant reliance.

{{BTD6|Striker Jones}} is a preferred [[Hero]] for simple gameplay, as he grants buffs and eliminates Bomb Blitz's {{BTD6|Black Bloon}} weakness. Without its passive, Bomb Blitz remains valuable with Striker, being a far stronger [[Recursive Cluster (BTD6)|Recursive Cluster]]. It deals very high damage to grouped Bloons and performs very well against rounds such as 98, wiping out blue {{BTD6|MOAB}}s and [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)#Super Ceramic Bloons|Super Ceramics]] with relative ease, but it is weak against {{BTD6|ZOMG}}s, {{BTD6|DDT}}s, and the {{BTD6|BAD}}. Thus, {{BTD6|MOAB Eliminator}} (which also synergizes with Striker) is recommended for breaking down high-tier blimps, and {{BTD6|Bloon Sabotage}} and {{BTD6|Relentless Glue}} are recommended for DDTs. [[Ezili (BTD6)|Ezili]] is also useful on game modes with more than one life (i.e., excluding [[Impoppable (BTD6)|Impoppable]] and [[CHIMPS]] on normal rules) to manually trigger the passive.

==Trivia==
*Using a bug where passive abilities could be manually activated via a [[hotkey]], it was possible to complete [[2MPC]] with Bomb Blitz without it ever using its main attack.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxZ3_hjs__s Can A Tower Get 2 Million Pops WITHOUT Attacking?! (Bloons TD 6)] </ref>
**This likely caused its buff in {{BTD6 version|51.0}} where its passive no longer required Bloons to leak to activate, instead simply when they are about to leak.
**{{BTD6|Elite Defender}}, and to a lesser extent the {{BTD6|Legend of the Night}} were also affected by this bug.
