The Bomb Shooter is a Primary tower in Bloons TD 6. It attacks by firing bombs that explode on impact, creating a blast that pops a moderate amount of Bloons within its blast radius. It can pop Lead Bloons and frozen Bloons, but not Black Bloons. It can be upgraded to create bigger stunning explosions, fire missiles which do extra damage to MOAB-Class Bloons, or send out multiple clusters of explosions.
Upgrades
Path 1
This upgrade applies the following crosspath interactions:
- Cluster Bombs and above: Each secondary explosions gains +50% radius and +6 pierce.
- Recursive Cluster and Bomb Blitz: The primary explosion of each recursive shot does not gain extra pierce, but gain extra radius, and each tertiary explosion gains +7.5 radius and +18 pierce.
Path 2
- MOAB-Class damage increased from +15 to +30 (+32 with Mega Mauler), for a total of 31 MOAB-Class damage (33 with Mega Mauler).
- Range increased by 5 units, from 49 to 54 without path 3 crosspaths.
With the Frag Bombs crosspath, the MOAB-Class bonus damage of its frags is increased to +9, and lets its ability create frags after hitting the target.
With Frag Bombs, the Frag's bonus MOAB damage is increased from +9 to +29, affecting both the main attack and the ability.
Path 3
This upgrade also increases the Bomb Shooter's range by 2 units (a ~3.85% increase compared to Extra Range, or a 35% increase compared to base Bomb Shooter).
Paragon
- Indomitable Surface-to-Air Ballistic Missile — Fires a missile that slowly seeks out its target, leaving a trail of explosions that pushback MOAB-Class Bloons, and finally generating a large explosion when it reaches its main target. Losing lives partially reduces its cooldown.
- Blitz Tactical Storm — A stronger version of Bomb Blitz's Bomb Storm, triggering upon losing lives or a Bloon attempting to leak. It visually rains missiles over the whole map, dealing extreme damage to most Bloons (including Camo Bloons) but dealing reduced damage to BADs and Boss Bloons.
