Damage: Difference between revisions

Layer skipping is when a tower deals more than 1 damage and skips layers. For example, if an unupgraded sniper pops a [[Zebra Bloon (BTD6)|Zebra Bloon]], since it does more than 1 damage (2), the [[Black Bloon (BTD6)|black]]/[[White Bloon (BTD6)|white]] layers are skipped and only 4 [[Pink Bloon (BTD6)|Pink Bloons]] are left remaining. Layer skipping doesn't account for immunities (except in mobile games of the [[Bloons TD 5 Generation]]), so it can allow towers to pop Bloons with layers that would normally be immune to them. For example, when a [[Heavy Bombs (BTD6)|Heavy Bombs]] [[Bomb Shooter (BTD6)|bomb shooter]] pops a [[Lead Bloon (BTD6)|Lead Bloon]], it deals 2 damage and can skip the black bloon layer it would normally be unable to damage.

Damage types are a property of damage that determines which Bloons the damage can or cannot be dealt to. This concept was introduced in the {{mobile version of|Bloons TD 5}} and only appears in the {{series|Bloons TD}} and ''[[Bloons Pop!]]'', although similar mechanics exist in prior games.

| rowspan="2" |While the cold and glacier types are able to pop frozen Bloons by default, both the [[Ice Monkey (BTD6)|Ice Monkey]] and [[Sentry Expert (BTD6)|Cold Sentry]] are unable to target or damage frozen Bloons. The Ice Monkey can only target and pop frozen with [[Re-Freeze (BTD6)|Re-Freeze]]; it cannot be overridden with [[Monkey Intelligence Bureau (BTD6)|Monkey Intelligence Bureau]].
