'''Really Big Bombs''' is the [[Bomb Shooter (BTD6)|Bomb Shooter]]'s path 1 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases [[damage]] of the bombs from 2 to 4, increases [[pierce]] from 38 to 80, and grants the ability to knockback Bloons. This knockback affects non-[[MOAB-Class Bloon|MOAB-Class Bloons]] and pushes them back by 20 [[Unit|units]].

It increases the [[damage]] of the bombs from 2 to 4, increases the bombs' [[pierce]] from 38 to 80, and grants the ability to [[pushback|push back]] Bloons. It only affects non-[[MOAB-Class Bloon]]s that are damaged, pushing them back by 20 [[Unit|units]]. [[Crosspath]]ing with [[Frag Bombs (BTD6)|Frag Bombs]] increases the damage of the frags from 2 to 6, pierce from 1 to 2, number of frags per bomb from 8 to 12, and longer lifespan.
 
== Special crosspath bonuses ==
 
* [[Frag Bombs (BTD6)|Frag Bombs]] — now have 3 damage (up from 1),<!--202 frags is 1 damage, not 2--> 2 pierce (up from 1), and each bomb now releases 12 frags (up from 8).

For its cost, Really Big Bombs offers lots of damage and pierce, plus minor utility in its knockback. It is not outstanding compared to [[Cluster Bombs (BTD6)|Cluster Bombs]], which collectively have more pierce per shot and less of a single-target weakness, and the Bomb Shooter's capability to skip black-immune layers from Rainbows is often handled by 2-0-4 [[Recursive Cluster (BTD6)|Recursive Cluster]]. Usually, the middle crosspath is better for the increased rate of explosions and faster knockback, although the Frags crosspath is viable in a 3-0-2 spam strategy.
Really Big Bombs is a strong grouped popping power for its cost, being a powerful option for [[Race Event]]s and dense rounds such as Round 63, but remains weak against blimps. Compared to its competitors, [[Cluster Bombs (BTD6)|Cluster Bombs]] and [[Recursive Cluster (BTD6)|Recursive Cluster]], it deals similar damage to grouped Bloons, significantly less damage against blimps, similar overall pierce (albeit in a compact explosion instead of multiple clusters), and provides some utility with the knockback. In Race Events and CT Time Attack, if better options such as [[Abyssal Warrior]] or [[Ring of Fire (BTD6)|Ring of Fire]] are enabled, Really Big Bombs is not necessary.
 
Despite its ability to layer-skip the immune layers of {{BTD6|Rainbow Bloon}}s, Really Big Bombs suffers from not being able to pop {{BTD6|Black Bloon}}s, so {{BTD6|Striker Jones}} is recommended to maximize its power. The middle crosspath is better for the increased rate of explosions (which also grants it far superior reliability) and better knockback, although 3-0-2 can be used as well if Striker Jones is not available.
