*Also deals more damage to Bloons ~~haunted~~ by [[Corvus (BTD6)|Corvus]].

*Also deals more damage to Bloons affected by [[Corvus (BTD6)|Corvus]]' Haunt, [[Herald of Everfrost]]'s Snowstorm Roar, or {{BTD6|Silas}}'s Rime.

*Also deals more damage to Bloons affected by [[Herald of Everfrost]]'s Snowstorm Roar or {{BTD6|Silas}}'s Rime.

*Also adds more heat than normal projectiles to [[Blastapopoulos (BTD6)|Blastapopoulos]] (though most projectiles that deal Frigid-type damage have special interactions with Blastapopoulos's heat).

*The Frigid type was introduced in {{BTD6 version|45.0}}, while its name was first revealed in {{BTD6 version|48.0}} update notes.

*Plasma and Fire were originally functionally identical and treated as the same damage type by the game's data. In {{BTD6 version|52.0}}, they were separated to allow for different interactions with [[Glass Bloon (BTD6)|Glass Bloon]]s (Fire can pop them but Plasma does not) and [[Dynamite Bloon]]s (Take +1 damage from Fire, Plasma works as normal).

**Prior to version 52.0, Plasma and Energy had a bitstring value of 8 and 9, now it's 72 and 73. Fire has a bitstring value of 8, just like old Plasma.

*Normal and Acid were also originally functionally identical and treated as the same damage type by the game's data. In {{BTD6 version|53.0}}, they were separated to allow for different interactions with [[Glass Bloon (BTD6)|Glass Bloon]]s (Normal can pop them but Acid does not).

====Technical information====

Internally, damage and Bloons in ''BTD6'' use [[wp:Bit field|bit fields]] to represent immunities. Damage uses a variable named <code>immuneBloonProperties</code> that lists the Bloon properties that are immune to it, while Bloons use a variable named <code>bloonProperties</code> that lists which properties it has the immunities of. Every damage type maps to a specific set of bits in <code>immuneBloonProperties</code>. The game files serialize these bit fields as 32-bit integers.

Internally, damage and Bloons in ''BTD6'' use [[wp:Bit field|bit fields]] to represent immunities. Damage uses a variable named <code>immuneBloonProperties</code> that lists the Bloon properties that are immune to it, while Bloons use a variable named <code>bloonProperties</code> that lists which properties it has the immunities of. Every damage type maps to a specific set of bits in <code>immuneBloonProperties</code>; the vanilla game never uses combinations of <code>immuneBloonProperties</code> that do not have a corresponding damage type. The game files serialize these bit fields as 32-bit integers.

Plasma and Energy were equivalent to {{hover|8|0b00001000}} and {{hover|9|0b00001001}} prior to version 52.0, which made the former functionally identical to the Fire type. Acid was equivalent to {{hover|0|0b00000000}} prior to version 53.0, which made it functionally identical to the Normal type.

Some attacks have a property that prevents targeting Bloons with specific immunity unless the attacks can damage them. For example, [[Psi (BTD6)|Psi]]'s level 6 and 11 upgrades allow targeting of [[Lead Bloon (BTD6)|Lead Bloon]]s and [[Purple Bloon (BTD6)|Purple Bloon]]s, respectively, and before those levels needs a buff such as [[Monkey Intelligence Bureau (BTD6)|Monkey Intelligence Bureau]] or certain [[Relic Knowledge]] (i.e. [[Alchemist Touch]] and [[Royal Treatment]], respectively) to target them. Frozen immunity is the only immunity that has no external buff that lets a non-targeting attack bypass the immunity.
