'''Wish orbs''' are [[wp:loot box|loot box]]es in ''[[Bloons Adventure Time TD]]'' that are the primary means of unlocking [[weapon (BATTD)|weapon]]s, [[trinket]]s, and [[Ally (BATTD)|allies]]. Opening a wish orb drops three random items, consisting of [[weapon (BATTD)|weapon]]s, [[trinket]]s, or [[Ally (BATTD)|allies]], that the player can choose one of (or two by spending [[gem]]s). The player can also shard the items (or the wish orb itself) to convert them into [[shard]]s, which are used to craft more wish orbs. Wish orbs come in six tiers of rarity that determine what rarity of items they can drop.

If the player has accumulated any wish orbs, they are forced to open (or shard) all of them as soon as they return to the world map or the kingdom menu.


Opening a wish orb drops three random items. One item is guaranteed to be of the same rarity as the wish orb, while the other two have a chance to be of a higher or lower rarity if applicable. A wish orb cannot drop more than one copy of the same item. The player has the option to reroll all items by watching an ad (on mobile with an Internet connection) or by spending {{BATTD gem|3|name=y}} (on PC).

The first wish orb the player earns during the [[tutorial (BATTD)|tutorial]] always contains an [[Ice Cream Sundae]], [[Scarlet]], and [[Pocket Watch]]. The player is forced to choose Scarlet and spend gems for the Ice Cream Sundae.

===Sharding===
The player can choose to shard an item drop instead of collecting it, which converts it to an amount of [[shard]]s based on its rarity. If the player shards the first item from a wish orb, the game does not allow the player to choose a second item.
The player can choose to shard an item drop instead of collecting it, which converts it to an amount of [[shard]]s based on its rarity. The player can only shard their first item choice from a wish orb, and the game does not allow the player to choose a second item if they do.


At [[level|rank]] 10, the player unlocks the option to shard the wish orb itself instead of opening it, which returns the same number of shards as an item of the same rarity.

*The number one priority of a new account is to obtain a [[Thought Cannon Wand]]. The player should always reroll Epic wish orbs to increase the odds of it appearing.
*If the player has a [[LiNK]] account, upon reaching the wish orb opening interface, one can load a second instance of the game from a cloud save (such as by playing on a second device or by opening the game on a second window on a PC), which allows one to reroll a wish orb on one instance and not the other. This allows one to choose an item from before the reroll in case the rerolled options are worse, which is especially useful for Legendary wish orbs. After choosing an item, one should choose to keep playing that instance in a local save on that instance and back it up to the cloud to keep it.
