The Diamond Bloon is a type of Bloon in the Frontier Legends DLC for Bloons TD 6. They have 100 health and fix the damage of all attacks taken to 1, taking 100 hits to pop. In addition, any projectile that hits a Diamond Bloon will have its pierce reduced by 5, and, just like Retribution Bloon and BAD, they are immune to all forms of movement impairment, such as slow and stun effects. Popping a Diamond Bloon releases 1 Fortified Ceramic Bloon. Diamond Bloons have the same targeting priority as BFBs.

Diamondback's skull ability spawns Diamond Bloons (except at tier 1 for Normal Diamondback). These Diamond Bloons have different amounts of health and, in Normal mode, move at two-thirds the usual speed.

Tips

This section was last updated for: version 54.0

• The best solution for dealing with Diamond Bloons are fast attacking towers and/or towers that fire a lot of projectiles, such as an Overdrive, Bloonjitsu, or a Super Monkey Fan Club with multiple fans, as well as fast-ticking DoT towers like Bloon Liquefier. Due to their immunity to movement impairment, damage negation, and additional pierce consumption, avoid relying on Spike Factory, Sniper Monkey, and Desperado.
• Heroes, such as a higher-level Quincy or Sauda, or Captain Churchill at level 5 or higher for his Machine Gun, also work well. In Frontier Legends, however, they're rather expensive, due to needing to buy every individual level.
• In Boss Events, lower-tier Diamondback is generally harder, being harder to afford both high Boss damage and consistent fast high-projectile attackers that deal with Diamond Bloons.
