The Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker has three mechanics:
Its main attack fires slow moving, but heavy hitting homing missiles that stun and push back Bloons, spawning eight cluster bombs on contact, each of which also spawns eight sub-cluster bombs. It deals enough damage to destroy a round 100 BAD layer in three shots. It has a very slow attack speed and cannot detect Camo Bloons without Ascended Shadow's Camo detection buff.
Its Activated Ability fires an Indomitable Surface-to-Air Ballistic Missile that slowly seeks out its target, leaving a trail of explosions that push back MOAB-Class Bloons, and finally generating a large explosion when it reaches its main target. Losing lives partially reduces its cooldown.
Its passive ability, Blitz Tactical Storm, is a stronger version of Bomb Blitz's Bomb Storm that visually rains missiles over the whole map, dealing heavy damage to most Bloons (including Camo Bloons) but dealing reduced damage to BADs and Boss Bloons.
The BOMB's main attack fires missiles, alternating between firing from its left and right sides. The missiles explode and launch eight cluster bombs in a circle on contact, each of which also explodes and launches eight sub-cluster bombs after traveling a short distance, and each sub-cluster bomb also generate their own explosions after traveling a short distance. (Unlike Recursive Cluster, where each group of sub-clusters is one large explosion that visually looks like several smaller explosions, the BOMB's sub-cluster bombs all generate their own explosions). The primary bomb's explosion inflicts pushback on and stuns Bloons hit for 3 seconds, the cluster bombs' explosions only stun Bloons, and the sub-cluster bombs do not inflict any additional effects. All of the explosions can carry over one round. This attack has a very slow attack speed and cannot detect or hit Camo Bloons.
Activated Ability
The BOMB's Activated Ability fires an Indomitable Surface-to-Air Ballistic Missile[1] (ISABM for short) that seeks out a target Bloon. It chooses a target according to the BOMB's targeting option at the time of activation, ignoring line of sight and with infinite range, and if its target disappears, it chooses a different target using the same targeting option it used initially. It can only be activated if there is a Bloon on-screen that it can target, and it cannot target Camo Bloons.
The ISABM moves slowly, but has a very fast midair turning speed. It creates a small explosion under it every 0.25 seconds (unaffected by attack speed modifiers) that inflicts pushback, and it detonates upon hitting its target or after nine seconds, dealing damage in a large area and stunning Bloons hit for 5 seconds.
This ability has a base cooldown of 30 seconds. Its cooldown reduces by 5 seconds each time a life is lost (including shield lives and Soul Barrier lives), with a minimum of 1 second between each life loss.
Passive Ability
The BOMB's passive ability, Blitz Tactical Storm,[1] works very similarly to Bomb Blitz's Bomb Storm passive, activating upon losing a life (including shield lives and Soul Barrier lives). It hits all Bloons on-screen (including Camo Bloons), dealing heavy damage to most Bloon types (enough to instakill everything except MOAB Test Bloons and Golden Bloons), but deals significantly reduced damage to BADs and Boss Bloons. It is not considered a projectile and thus does not have a pierce limit. It has a base cooldown of 120 seconds.

Strategy
This strategy section is empty or incomplete. See the strategy guidelines for more information on how to write strategy sections. The editor who added this notice elaborates: Add the favored and disfavored boss matchups, the saveups, the use cases vs other paragons, and other strategizations of timing etc and how to use the bomb abilities optimally, also any degree optimisations if any (e.g. mmmf's d20+1 bc pierce, d43 or something mb due to uptime powerglove). Check if Lych really is its favored boss.
Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker fulfills the role of an expensive Paragon that is simpler to understand compared to others at similar price points. It does solid damage to Blimps and Bosses, but has poor cleanup due to its slow attack speed, and even with Camo support it struggles against DDTs. Thus, setting it on Strong is most preferable outside of Dreadbloon (use First targeting). The passive can potentially save the player against leaking Blimps in a pinch, but its slow cooldown means it should be only used as a last resort. Its life loss synergy with cooldown reductions is useful with Ezili's Totem, though in Boss Events it's not the best Hero synergy compared to Geraldo's Paragon Power Totems for extra Paragon degrees.
BOMB is mostly a supporting damage Paragon, preferably against BADs, rather than the main DPS. It should be paired with higher-DPS Paragons such as Magus Perfectus, with high degrees.
BOMB's best matchup is Lych due to both its active and passive abilities being able to instantly kill Lych's Soul. When timed right, the soul will be killed at the same time as Lych reaches a skull from a single activated ability. BOMB's worst matchups are Blastapopoulos, whose ability debuffs are especially detrimental to the BOMB's passive ability protecting against leaked Bloons, and Phayze, because of BOMB's lack of camo detection (Although Radar Jam has no effect on BOMB when camo detection is given by Ascended Shadow).
To maximize degrees from pops, the majority of them should come from a mixture of Bomb Blitz, Recursive Clusters, MOAB Eliminator, and MOAB Assassins. For cheapest T2 and T3 crosspaths for the most tiers, use 0-2-2 and 0-2-3, the cheapest Tier 4 for the most tiers is 0-2-4 Recursive Cluster, and for the most expensive use 2-4-0 Assassins.
Pre-release
In the update notes for version 49.0, Ninja Kiwi stated that they would add a new Paragon or Boss Bloon, depending on community feedback, in version 52.0.[2] Ninja Kiwi ultimately decided on the Bomb Shooter Paragon; however, in the update notes for version 50.0, they stated that they would add it in version 51.0 instead and concept art was already made for it.[3]
The preview for version 51.0 revealed the final name of the Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker and an in-depth explanation of its mechanics and concept of being expensive but simple to understand.[1] The early access video depicts it having innate Camo detection via only its explosions (but not the attack itself),[4] but the early access videos indicate it lacks Camo detection. They later released a teaser video of the Paragon on TikTok.[5]
Bomb Shooter's Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker or B.O.M.B. for short!
Anti-MOAB clustering stun bombs. MOABs? Gone.
Pop that BAD in only 3 shots? You got it!
Spammable Anti-Boss assassination missile? Consider it done.
All the small stuff? *ahem* weee-have backup for that
Ok, jokes aside we wanted to add something expensive but simple to understand into the primary category of Paragons, and the Bomb Shooter paragon feels like it accomplishes this with 1 attack, 1 active ability, and yes 1 passive ability.
Slow firing but heavy hitting main attack fires homing missiles that explode with force that stuns & pushes back Bloons and bursts into a cluster of powerful explosions, each of which will always burst into further clusters.
The Bomb Paragon’s ability fires an Indomitable Surface-to-Air Ballistic Missile (ISABM) which slowly travels through the air leaving a trail of explosions that would be pushing back any MOABs they pass over (If any MOABs were to somehow survive it passing over) until coming into contact with its designated target in one final powerful explosion. Also hey, leaking lives partially resets the cooldown, so go ahead and be a bit reckless!
Blitz Tactical Storm. Yea it’s Bombest Blitzier, just a wee bit stronger of a Bomb Blitz, nothing crazy here… Although, I guess we can mention early that Bomb Blitz itself has been balance changed so that it can now hit the leaking target that triggers it and can potentially prevent any life loss, and that of course carries up to this paragon version as well - this is exhilarating, get excited!
Early names
The Bomb Shooter's upgrade menu in Ethan Reid's video
The Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker was tentatively named the Supreme Missile Platform when it was revealed in the update notes for version 50.0.[3] Ethan Reid's early access video was taken from an earlier build where the Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker is named the Oblivion Missile Silo and uses a recolored MOAB Eliminator portrait as a placeholder.[6] This early name is also partially visible in the official update video, when the Bomb Shooter's upgrade panel appears for a few frames during a transition, but the name is mostly obscured by the transition. The Oblivion Missile Silo's description is mostly the same, except it uses the abbreviation "OMS" instead of "BOMB". In the full release, the in-game description of the Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker in most of the non-English language options still refers to it as the "OMS". Likewise, the Paragon name in many non-English language options still refer to it by some variation of "Oblivion Missile Silo".
