The Bomb Shooter is a Primary tower in Bloons TD 6. It can be unlocked at levels 2 through 6.

The Bomb Shooter shoots bombs that explode on impact, creating a blast that pops a moderate amount of Bloons that are inside the blast radius. The blasts can pop Lead Bloons, but not Black Bloons. It can be upgraded to create bigger stunning explosions, fires missiles which do extra damage to MOAB-class Bloons, or send out multiple clusters of explosions.

Version 22.0

•  Pierce reduced ― 18 → 14

Version 28.0

“

While MOAB Maulers are a current popular meta the base bomb shooter is unaffordable early on for the little contribution it can make at early levels when not much pierce is really needed, so some cost has been moved out of the base upgrade and into the Mauler with an overall price increase to Mauler.
— Update notes

”

•  Cost reduced ― $600 → $525

Version 44.0

“

Base bomb price is now also lowering to allow more starting combinations to utilize it, this reduced price is moving up only into MOAB Assassin.
— Update notes

”

•  Cost reduced ― $525 → $375

Version 46.0

“

Bomb Shooter’s base pierce is plenty for the early game but low enough that 1xx crosspath feels too important later, we’re shifting pierce out of crosspath into the base upgrade to alleviate this.
— Update notes

”

•  Main explosion: pierce increased ― 14 → 22
