The '''Diamond Bloon''' is a type of [[Bloon]] in the ''[[Frontier Legends]]'' DLC for ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. They have 100 health and fix the damage of all attacks taken to 1, effectively taking 100 hits to pop. In addition, any projectile that hits a Diamond Bloon will have its [[pierce]] reduced by 5, and they are immune to all forms of movement impairment, such as slow and [[stun]] effects. Popping a Diamond Bloon releases 1 [[Fortified Bloon (BTD6)|Fortified]] [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramic Bloon]]. Diamond Bloons have the same targeting priority as [[BFB (BTD6)|BFB]]s.
The '''Diamond Bloon''' is a type of [[Bloon]] in the ''[[Frontier Legends]]'' DLC for ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. They have 80 health and fix the damage of all attacks taken to 1, meaning they always take 80 hits to pop. In addition, any projectile that hits a Diamond Bloon will have its [[pierce]] reduced by 5, and, just like [[Retribution Bloon]] and [[BAD (BTD6)|BAD]], they are immune to all forms of movement impairment, such as slow and [[stun]] effects. Popping a Diamond Bloon releases 1 [[Fortified Bloon (BTD6)|Fortified]] [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramic Bloon]]. Diamond Bloons have the same Strong targeting priority as [[BFB (BTD6)|BFB]]s.
 
[[Diamondback]]'s skull ability spawns Diamond Bloons (except at tier 1 in Normal mode). These Diamond Bloons have different amounts of health depending on the boss' tier, move at two-thirds the usual speed in Normal mode, and have some properties of [[Boss Bloon|Boss Bloons]], such as being immune to instant kills and being subject to Boss Health or Boss Speed modifiers.

<!--{{BTD6 last updated|52.2|section=y}}-->The best solution for dealing with Diamond Bloons are fast attacking towers and/or towers that fire a lot of projectiles, such as an [[Overdrive (BTD6)|Overdrive]], a [[Bloon Area Denial System (BTD6)|Bloon Area Denial System]], or a [[Robo Monkey (BTD6)|Robo Monkey]]. Heroes, such as a higher-level [[Quincy (BTD6)|Quincy]] or [[Sauda (BTD6)|Sauda]], or [[Captain Churchill (BTD6)|Captain Churchill]] at level 5 or higher for his Machine Gun also work well, though are rather expensive due to needing to buy every individual level in ''Frontier Legends''.

*The best solution for dealing with Diamond Bloons are fast attacking towers and/or towers that fire a lot of projectiles, such as an [[Overdrive (BTD6)|Overdrive]], [[Bloonjitsu (BTD6)|Bloonjitsu]], or a [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BTD6)|Super Monkey Fan Club]] with multiple fans, as well as fast-ticking DoT towers like [[Bloon Liquefier (BTD6)|Bloon Liquefier]]. Due to their immunity to movement impairment, damage negation, and additional pierce consumption, avoid relying on [[Spike Factory (BTD6)|Spike Factory]], [[Sniper Monkey (BTD6)|Sniper Monkey]], and [[Desperado (BTD6)|Desperado]].
*Heroes, such as a higher-level [[Quincy (BTD6)|Quincy]] or [[Sauda (BTD6)|Sauda]], or [[Captain Churchill (BTD6)|Captain Churchill]] at level 5 or higher for his Machine Gun, also work well. In ''Frontier Legends'', however, they're rather expensive, due to needing to buy every individual level.
*In Boss Events, lower-tier Diamondback is generally harder, being harder to afford both high Boss damage and consistent fast high-projectile attackers that deal with Diamond Bloons.

*There is a version of the Diamond Bloon that has 20 health and 20 speed. It was intended for the Normal tier 1 version of Diamondback, but that version of Diamondback does not spawn Diamond Bloons starting in {{BTD6 version|54.1}}. Along with the other Diamond Bloon versions, it was possible to spawn in [[Sandbox (BTD6)|Sandbox]] mode in version 54.1, but {{BTD6 version|54.2}} removed it, making it completely inaccessible.
