Adora is a Hero in Bloons TD 6, introduced in version 14.0. She is purchasable for
5,000 Monkey Money starting at level 25.
Adora attacks by firing Divine Bolts that seek out Bloons, hitting up to five per shot. Her bolts deal Plasma-type damage, meaning that they can pop Lead Bloons, but not Purple Bloons or Glass Bloons. She does not have Camo detection. As she levels up, she fires more Divine Bolts at a time, her bolts can pop more Bloons, and her bolts deal more damage, especially to Fortified Bloons. At level 20, she can unlock a powerful transformation by upgrading a Sun Temple into a True Sun God.
She has three Activated Abilities:
- The Long Arm of Light (level 3) — Increases her range and pierce and allows her to pop Purple Bloons and Glass Bloons for a short time. Deals more damage starting at level 16.
- Blood Sacrifice (level 7) — Sacrifices a tower to gain XP and temporarily buff herself and nearby Sun Avatars, granting extra range and attack speed.
- Ball of Light (level 10) — Spawns a temporary orb that fires lasers directly onto Bloons, similarly to Plasma Accelerator.
Mechanics
Divine Bolt
Adora's main attack fires Divine Bolts that seek out Bloons and deal Plasma-type damage, and ignore line of sight. Unlike most seeking projectiles, Divine Bolts will decelerate if the target is not within a 30° cone of their current trajectory and accelerate if the target is within a 5° cone, allowing them to make much tighter turns in the air to avoid missing their targets. This seeking style is shared with the radial dart attack of Neva-Miss Targeting and its higher tiers. Adora shoots multiple Divine Bolts per shot at higher levels, which are spread 30° apart from each other. This attack gains the following benefits as Adora levels up:
| Level | Effect |
|---|---|
| 2 | Acquisition range increases by 4 units. |
| 4 | Shoots two Divine Bolts at a time instead of one. |
| 5 | Pierce increases from 5 to 8. |
| 6 | Shoots three Divine Bolts at a time. |
| 8 | Shoots four Divine Bolts at a time. |
| 9 | Acquisition range increases by 5 units, and it now deals +1 damage to Fortified Bloons. |
| 11 | Attack cooldown reduces from 1 second to 0.85 seconds, effectively increasing attack speed by ~17.6%. |
| 12 | Shoots five Divine Bolts at a time. |
| 13 | Pierce increases to 11 and damage to Fortified Bloons increases to +2. |
| 14 | Shoots six Divine Bolts at a time. |
| 15 | Base damage increases from 1 to 2. |
| 17 | Attack cooldown reduces to 0.7 seconds, effectively increasing attack speed by ~21.4%. |
| 18 | Shoots eight Divine Bolts at a time. |
| 19 | Acquisition range increases by 5 units and damage to Fortified Bloons increases to +3. |
True Adora
If Adora is at level 20 and has a Sun Temple in her range when it is upgraded into a True Sun God, Adora transforms into True Adora.[1] In this form, Adora's main attack deals +24 damage and has +30 pierce, and Ball of Light gains +180 damage and +35 pierce. She remains transformed even if the True Sun God is sold.
If the True Sun God transforms into a VTSG, Adora also transforms into Vengeful Adora.[2] Doing this for the first time on an account unlocks the Strangely Adorable achievement. Otherwise, the differences are purely cosmetic.
Abilities
The Long Arm of Light

The Long Arm of Light unlocks at level 3. It temporarily doubles Adora's pierce and range, increases her projectile radius by 50%, and allows her projectiles to pop any type of Bloon for 10 seconds. Starting at level 16, it also increases her damage by 2 and lasts for 15 seconds. It has a 45-second cooldown.
Blood Sacrifice

Blood Sacrifice unlocks at level 7. It destroys the selected tower and provides a buff that increases range and attack speed based on the total amount of cash spent on the sacrificed tower, as well as granting Adora XP equal to four times the cash amount (which is affected by Energizer,
Scholarships, and
Monkeys Together Strong). It has a 30-second cooldown.
The buff applies to Adora and all Sun Avatars, Sun Temples, and True Sun Gods within her range for 10 seconds. It increases range by 10% and reduces attack cooldown by 10%, plus 1% per $100 spent on the sacrificed tower, capping at +25% range and -25% cooldown (+33% attack speed) at $1,500 spent. At level 20, the duration is increased to 60 seconds and the cap is increased to +50% range and -50% cooldown (double attack speed) at $4,000 spent. If the buff is granted to towers that already have it, it does not stack the effects, but stronger versions of the buff will override weaker ones, and activating a weaker version while a stronger version is active will cause the weaker version to take over once the stronger version ends.
Ball of Light

Ball of Light unlocks at level 10. It spawns a temporary sub-tower that orbits around Adora in a small anti-clockwise circle for 12 seconds. The ball fires lasers at Bloons with infinite range and matches Adora's current targeting option. It deals 3 Plasma damage every 0.05 seconds to up to 8 Bloons at a time and deals +3 damage to Fortified Bloons. It has a 60-second cooldown. Like other sub-towers, it can't be affected by Overclock.
It gains the following at higher levels:
| Level | Effect |
|---|---|
| 13 | Pierce increased to 11. |
| 15 | Damage increased to 5 damage and +5 versus Fortified |
| 20 | Damage increased to 20 damage and +20 versus Fortified, damage type changed to Normal (can now pop Purple), and lasts for 15 seconds instead of 12. |

Strategy
Adora is often outclassed as a Hero, having a below average DPS and support. Her main use is Blood Sacrifice to provide a significant DPS boost to Sun Temples and True Sun God for late-game settings, especially Boss Bloon Events in the lack of cash generating heroes. In deep Freeplay however, she is outclassed by Ezili's MOAB Hex scaling based on BAD health. Outside of this, a lot of investment and buffs are required to give her high enough DPS over other Heroes, and she struggles after round 50 until she reaches level 20.
In CHIMPS mode, she has an incredibly strong early game as her bolts are accurate and very receptive to buffs. Before round 50, she is a great candidate for Berserker Brew, and in the later rounds once she is level 20, an Overclock provides an immense power boost. She needs a mid-game carry tower like Bloon Area Denial System to deal with early MOAB-Class Bloons until she can level up to the max level and deal acceptable damage to them, but players can often sacrifice the carry tower to gain enough XP to reach level 20 before important rounds like 98. Timing her abilities are crucial to beating these rounds once she reaches max level.
For Boss Bloon Events that have limited Paragons available, she can often be the choice over cash generating heroes to boost a Vengeful True Sun God and many Sun Avatars to damage Bosses faster. Players do not need to level her until they get those towers, and she can help defend the early game well in order to be greedy with farming.
