Map buff icon for Damage in BTD6

Damage is the process by which a Bloon, or in the case of the iOS version of Hot Air Bloon, certain bosses and the player, loses health and/or layers in the Bloons TD series, Bloons Supermonkey series, the iOS version of Hot Air Bloon, and Bloons Pop!. Damage is primarily dealt by projectiles or status effects.

Damage is often described in descriptive text as the amount of "layers popped", which, while not incorrect for most Bloon types, is inaccurate for Bloons with multiple points of health.

Layer skipping

[edit | edit source]
Heavy Bombs dealing 2 damage to Lead Bloons, popping them into Pink Bloons and skipping the Black Bloon layers.

Layer skipping is when a tower deals more than 1 damage and skips layers. For example, if an unupgraded sniper pops a Zebra Bloon, since it does more than 1 damage (2), the black/white layers are skipped and only 4 Pink Bloons are left remaining. Layer skipping doesn't account for immunities (except in mobile games of the Bloons TD 5 Generation[fn 1]), so it can allow towers to pop Bloons with layers that would normally be immune to them. For example, when a Heavy Bombs bomb shooter pops a Lead Bloon, it deals 2 damage and can skip the black bloon layer it would normally be unable to damage.

Damage types

[edit | edit source]
Main article: Damage type

Damage types are a property of damage that determines which Bloons the damage can or cannot be dealt to. This concept was introduced in the mobile version of Bloons TD 5 and only appears in the Bloons TD series and Bloons Pop!, although similar mechanics exist in prior games.

Resistance

The editor who added this notice elaborates: Expand upon "damage resistance"
This article is in need of research. You can help out by editing this article or discussing your findings on the talk page.
The editor who added this notice elaborates: Is damage capped bloons like BTD6 Golden Bloon and Diamond Bloons count as "damage resistance" or another type of game mechanic?

A Bloon with damage resistance will take less damage than normal. If an attack deals less than or equal to a Bloon's damage resistance, the Bloon takes no damage. For instance, Tier 2−5 Dreadbloon in BTD6 takes 1 less damage from all attacks.
