Adora [[attack]]s by firing Divine Bolts that seek out [[Bloon]]s, hitting up to five per shot. Her bolts deal {{BTD6 dt|72}}-type [[damage]], meaning that they can pop [[Lead Bloon (BTD6)|Lead Bloon]]s, but not [[Purple Bloon (BTD6)|Purple Bloon]]s or [[Glass Bloon (BTD6)|Glass Bloons]]. She does not have [[Camo detection]]. As she levels up, she fires more Divine Bolts at a time, her bolts can pop more Bloons, and her bolts deal more damage, especially to [[Fortified Bloon (BTD6)|Fortified Bloon]]s.

Adora's main attack fires Divine Bolts that seek out Bloons and deal [[Damage type|Plasma-type]] [[damage]], and ignore [[Line of Sight]]. Unlike most seeking projectiles, Divine Bolts will decelerate if the target is not within a 30° cone of their current trajectory and accelerate if the target is within a 5° cone, allowing them to make much tighter turns in the air to avoid missing their targets. This seeking style is shared with the radial dart attack of [[Neva-Miss Targeting (BTD6)|Neva-Miss Targeting]] and its higher tiers. Adora shoots multiple Divine Bolts per shot at higher levels, which are spread 30° apart from each other. This attack gains the following benefits as Adora levels up:

'''The Long Arm of Light''' is unlocked at level 3. It temporarily doubles Adora's [[pierce]] and [[range]], increases her [[projectile radius]] by 50%, and allows her projectiles to pop any type of Bloon for 10 seconds. Starting at level 16, it also increases her [[damage]] by 2 and lasts for 15 seconds. It has a 45-second cooldown.

'''Blood Sacrifice''' is unlocked at level 7. It destroys the selected [[tower]] and provides a buff that increases range and [[attack speed]] based on the total amount of [[cash]] spent on the sacrificed tower, as well as granting Adora XP equal to four times the cash amount (which is affected by [[Energizer (BTD6)|Energizer]]). It has a 30-second cooldown.

It cannot target [[sub-tower]]s. It has a 30-second cooldown.


The buff applies to Adora and all [[Sun Avatar (BTD6)|Sun Avatar]]s, [[Sun Temple (BTD6)|Sun Temple]]s, and [[True Sun God (BTD6)|True Sun God]]s within her range for 10 seconds. It increases range by 10% and reduces [[attack cooldown]] by 10%, plus 1% per $100 spent on the sacrificed tower, capping at +25% range and -25% cooldown (+33% attack speed) at $1,500 spent. At level 20, the duration is increased to 60 seconds and the cap is increased to +50% range and -50% cooldown (double attack speed) at $4,000 spent. If the buff is granted to towers that already have it, it does not stack the effects, but stronger versions of the buff will override weaker ones, and activating a weaker version while a stronger version is active will cause the weaker version to take over once the stronger version ends.

'''Ball of Light''' is unlocked at level 10. It spawns a temporary [[sub-tower]] that orbits around Adora in a small anti-clockwise circle for 12 seconds. The ball fires lasers at Bloons with infinite [[range]] and matches Adora's current [[targeting]] option. It deals 3 {{BTD6 dt|72}} damage every 0.05 seconds to up to 8 Bloons at a time and deals +3 damage to [[Fortified Bloon (BTD6)|Fortified Bloon]]s. It has a 60-second cooldown. It gains the following at higher levels:

{{BTD6 last updated|53.2|section=y}}
Adora is often outclassed as a Hero, having a below average DPS and support. Her main use is Blood Sacrifice to provide a significant DPS boost to [[Sun Temple (BTD6)|Sun Temple]]s and [[True Sun God (BTD6)|True Sun God]] for late-game settings, especially [[Boss Bloon Event (BTD6)|Boss Bloon Event]]s in the lack of cash generating heroes. In deep Freeplay however, she is outclassed by [[Ezili (BTD6)|Ezili]]'s MOAB Hex scaling based on BAD health. Outside of this, a lot of investment and buffs are required to give her high enough DPS over other Heroes, and she struggles after round 50 until she reaches level 20.
 
In CHIMPS mode, she has an incredibly strong early game as her bolts are accurate and very receptive to buffs. Before round 50, she is a great candidate for [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]], and in the later rounds once she is level 20, an [[Overclock (BTD6)|Overclock]] provides an immense power boost. She needs a mid-game carry tower like [[Bloon Area Denial System (BTD6)|Bloon Area Denial System]] to deal with early [[MOAB-Class Bloon]]s until she can level up to the max level and deal acceptable damage to them, but players can often sacrifice the carry tower to gain enough XP to reach level 20 before important rounds like 98. Timing her abilities are crucial to beating these rounds once she reaches max level.
 
For Boss Bloon Events that have limited Paragons available, she can often be the choice over cash generating heroes to boost a [[Vengeful True Sun God]] and many [[Sun Avatar (BTD6)|Sun Avatar]]s to damage Bosses faster. Players do not need to level her until they get those towers, and she can help defend the early game well in order to be greedy with farming.
