The Druid is a Magic tower in Bloons TD 6. It attacks by throwing a volley of 5 thorns at Bloons with random spread. Each thorn pops up to 1 Bloon, but cannot pop frozen Bloons or Lead Bloons. It can be upgraded to channel the powers of the storm, shooting lightning and tornadoes, channel the powers of the jungle, summoning vines and generating cash, or channel the powers of wrath, increasing its attack speed and damage.
Upgrades
Path 1
With Tiny Tornadoes, each tornado splits into three smaller tornadoes when they expire. Each mini tornado blows Bloon 33–300 units backwards and has 5 pierce, and can target all except Lead and MOAB-Class.
Both the tornado attack and the mini tornadoes can accept damage buffs such as Berserker Brew, as its damage is not capped.
Additionally, the ordinary Heart of Thunder lightning bolts deal 3 damage, and tornadoes are more effective. Tornadoes now blow back Bloons +50 more units backwards (150–250 units), and has its pierce increased from 35 to 60 with no pierce penalty versus Ceramic Bloons.
The superstorm is a slow moving projectile that does 100 damage and inflicts blowback on MOAB-Class Bloons, sending them back between 100 and 400 units (half the value if it's a ZOMG). The superstorm projectile also fires out a ball lightning projectile every 3 seconds; this ball lightning is fired in a randomized direction within 180° of the superstorm's fired direction. Superstorm projectiles ignore walls and can bounce off map borders, consume more pierce on blimps (MOAB: 3, BFB: 9, ZOMG: 33, DDT: 7), can target BADs but not Boss Bloons, have 200 pierce, can re-hit Bloons every second, and last up to 12.8571 seconds (17.1429 seconds with 5-0-1). It removes all glue and ice mutators and their effects, except Glue Strike and Glue Storm ability effects from BADs and Bosses. The attack triggers every 4 seconds, and can trigger on any target.
Path 2
With Hard Thorns, both the vine grab and leftover vine can pop Frozen and Lead, and the vine grab is able to target Frozen and Lead. Druidic Reach improves duration of the thorn pile by +33%. Heart of Vengeance, like all speed buffs, doesn't affect the digestion time of the vine grab, but does decrease the cooldown of the attack itself and the pierce refresh interval of the thorn pile.
If Obyn Greenfoot is present on screen and at least level 5, all Druids of the Jungle gain 40% more range.
Additionally, the Druid passively generates more Cash and Life at the end of the round. The Vine Crush ability grabs and crushes even more Bloons and spawns thorn piles on the track. All its attacks, excluding Heart of Thunder's lightning, deal extra damage.
Path 3
Paragon
The Paragon passively covers the track in a sentient forest that damages Bloons, and similar to Spirit of the Forest's vines, they deal higher damage if spawn near the Paragon. Every few seconds, Root of all Nature throws a seed to grow storm trees. They attack and blowback nearby Bloons with Vinenados and are treated as Banana Farms.
Root of all Nature's Activated Ability, Primordial Wrath, allows it to toggle its wrathful state, which increases its damage but drains cash over time and prevents other towers from generating cash until toggled off. This Paragon also has a special interaction with Obyn Greenfoot, giving him a variety of buffs.
