This boss is composed of multiple segments, with a head that blocks all [[pierce|piercing]] attacks and a shielded tail that, if targeted enough, can stun and debuff the Boss. It is able to spawn large numbers of supplementary Bloons as it loses health. Every time it reaches a skull threshold, Diamondback will shed one body segment in order to spawn an especially large wave of more powerful Bloons, and regrow the shield protecting its tail.
