Blooncineration (BTD6)

For the upgrade in Bloons TD Battles 2, see Blooncineration (disambiguation).

Blooncineration

Superhot burny stuff that incinerates MOAB-Class Bloons with ease.

Tower	Mortar Monkey — Path 3 — Tier 5
XP cost	35,000
Cash cost	$34,000 — Easy $40,000 — Medium $43,200 — Hard $48,000 — Impoppable

← Shattering Shells

Blooncineration is the Mortar Monkey's path 3 tier 5 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. Each explosion leaves a Wall of Fire that deals 1 damage, has 20 pierce, rehits every 0.1 seconds, and lasts 4.5 seconds. Additionally Blooncineration applies a much stronger burn effect that burns every 0.75 seconds (0.5 with Extra Burny Stuff). The burn effect deals 5 damage, and +95 MOAB-class damage. It can also defortify DDTs without the need for Paint Stripper.

Crosspathing with path 1 improves the Wall of Fire and burn effects:

• 1-0-5: Increases Wall of Fire Radius from 15 to 21 and pierce from 20 to 36.
• 2-0-5: Increases the burn effect to 8 damage and +142 MOAB-class damage and the Wall of Fire damage from 1 to 3.

Strategy

This section was last updated for: version 54.0

Even considering its high cost, Blooncineration is a strong Tier 5, trivializing blimps during Rounds 81-100, while retaining Shattering Shells's support capability and improving it by defortifying Round 99's Fortified DDTs. With Berserker Brew, its walls of fire can also deal solid Bloon damage if accumulated over time while blimps are being stalled. It pairs the best with Striker Jones, who also alleviates its awkward save-up from Shattering Shells by working well with Artillery Battery, which saves up well to Blooncineration.

For crosspathing, 2-0-5 is generally preferred, maximizing burn damage and pierce against dense clumps. The significantly increased pierce and damage of the walls of fire also make 2-0-5 stand out as the superior crosspath. 0-2-5 is necessary on shorter maps, or if there's a lack of good loops, for consistent hits.

Version 17.0

• Changed the visual effects of the wall of fire

Version 18.0

•  Wall of Fire: Now detects Camo Bloons

Version 21.0

“

Mortar’s Faster Reload feels like a ‘required’ as a crosspath with Burny Stuff never scaling well on any path but it’s own. We like choices not requirements so to counter this we have made Burny Stuff scale with top-path damage & shifted a small amount of the speed from Faster Reload onto the base mortar and reduced base accuracy considerably.
— Update notes

”

•  Mortar base rate of fire increased ― 2.2s → 2s

Version 23.0

• When defortifying a Bloon, the damage counter now additionally calculates removed health of descendants instead of just the outer layer.

Version 24.0

“

As an expensive high-layer T5 DPS tower lurking behind a mainly support path on path 3 Mortar it’s not easy to save for, so Blooncineration has had a fair price reduction.
— Update notes

”

•  Upgrade cost reduced ― $45,000 → $40,000

Version 25.0

•  Blaze (WoF): Damage type changed ― Corrupted damage type functionally identical to Normal → Fire (undocumented) (bug fix)

Version 27.0

“

Signal Flare has had its camo revealing aspect reworked to make it more generally useful.
— Update notes

”

•  Now triggers a larger secondary AoE at the point of impact that removes Camo and ignores Bloon immunities
•  Main explosion: No longer removes Camo

Version 28.0

“

Bottom path Mortar burns have been reworked to burn faster and last longer at all upgrades; the Extra Burny Stuff MK has been tweaked in order to keep it’s benefit the same comparatively to the new & improved base values.
— Update notes

”

•  DoT: Damage interval decreased ― 1s → 0.75s
•  DoT: Duration increased ― 3s → 3.75s

Version 29.0

1-0-5, 2-0-5

•  Decamo explosion: Pierce increased ― 80 → 85 (bug fix)
•  Decamo explosion: Radius increased ― 50 → 70 (bug fix)

Version 34.0

“

205 Mortar is not often used as base damage isn't relevant for Blooncineration compared to attack speed, following along with the idea of Top Path improving burny stuff damage in addition to base hit damage both of these paths will now benefit from increase burn DoT in such a way.
— Update notes

”

2-0-5

•  DoT: Damage per tick increased ― 5 → 8
•  MOAB-class DoT: Damage per tick increased ― 100 → 150

Version 37.0

“

As the camo property has grown quite weak and currently Signal Flare is considered the best decamo tool, we want to push back slightly on its cost and by reducing the blast radius of the decamo area while emphasizing crosspathing for effectiveness there.
— Update notes

”

•  Decamo AoE: Radius reduced ― 50 → 43

1-0-5, 2-0-5

•  Bigger Blast grants the decamo AoE more pierce ― +5 → +10

Version 39.0

“

We’re looking to shakeup mortar in a couple small ways this update, along with Striker Jones changes noted further on for ‘multi-mortaring’ synergy. From the base level Mortar has far more pierce than should ever be necessary at low rounds but doesn’t hit beefy enough for the low fire rate, so we are trading up some base pierce for damage, instead moving this lost pierce up into crosspath.
— Update notes

”

•  Explosion: Damage increased ― 1 → 2
•  Decamo explosion: Pierce reduced ― 80 → 50 (undocumented)
  • Note: Bigger Blasts crosspath remains at 90 pierce
•  Explosion: Pierce reduced ― 40 → 25
  • Note: Bigger Blast and its subsequent upgrades unchanged

Version 41.0

•  Overall cost reduced by $300 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
•  Decamo AoE: Radius increased ― 43 → 52

Version 43.0

“

Blooncineration’s 025 crosspath currently works so much better with external buffs so we're tweaking the 205 crosspath to feel better in some situations.
— Update notes

”

1-0-5

•  Wall of Fire: Pierce per tick with Bigger Blast increased ― 25 → 36

2-0-5

•  Wall of Fire: Damage per tick with Bloon Buster increased ― 2 → 3

Version 45.0

•  Overall cost reduced by $1,000 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)

Version 50.0

•  Overall cost reduced by $50 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)

Version 55.2

•  Decamo blast: Can now remove the Regrow property from any Bloon
  • Note: This change was implemented because the main explosion could not remove the Regrow property from Lych
