'''Really Big Bombs''' is the [[Bomb Shooter (BTD6)|Bomb Shooter]]'s path 1 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases [[damage]] of the bombs from 2 to 4, increases [[pierce]] from 38 to 80, and grants the ability to knockback Bloons. This knockback affects non-[[MOAB-Class Bloon~~|MOAB-Class Bloons~~]] and pushes them back by 20 [[Unit|units]].

~~{{Strategy needed|Add mention of race events, dense rounds, etc}}~~

Really Big Bombs is a very strong grouped popping power for its cost, being a powerful option for [[Race Event]]s and rounds such as 63, but remains weak against blimps. Compared to its competitor, [[Cluster Bombs (BTD6)|Cluster Bombs]], it deals similar damage to grouped Bloons, significantly less damage against blimps, and provides some utility with the knockback, putting the two on roughly even grounds.

~~For~~ its cost, ~~Really Big Bombs offers lots of damage~~ and ~~pierce~~, ~~plus minor utility in its knockback~~. ~~It is not outstanding compared~~ to [[Cluster Bombs (BTD6)|Cluster Bombs]], ~~which collectively have more pierce per shot and~~ less ~~of a single-target weakness~~, and the ~~Bomb Shooter's capability~~ to skip ~~black-immune layers~~ from ~~Rainbows is often handled by 2-0-4 [[Recursive Cluster (~~BTD6)|~~Recursive Cluster]]~~. ~~Usually, the~~ middle crosspath is better for the increased rate of explosions and ~~faster~~ knockback, although ~~the Frags crosspath is viable in a~~ 3-0-2 ~~spam strategy~~.

Despite its ability to layer-skip with {{B|Rainbow Bloon|BTD6}}s, Really Big Bombs suffers from not being able to pop {{B|Black Bloon|BTD6}}, so {{B|Striker Jones|BTD6}} is recommended to maximize its power. The middle crosspath is better for the increased rate of explosions and better knockback, although 3-0-2 viable due to doing more damage when given buffs such as {{B|Primary Training|BTD6}}.
