Interesting. Strange because for the other balloons, the RBE value is consistent with their first layer's health (using Wiki sources). That makes me wonder if the ZOMG takes reduced damage from some other sources.

BTD 4/5 values

M.O.A.B = 613 / 616 RBE. Subtract 4 ceramics (104 RBE) to get 197 / 200. According to trivia, 20/21 spikes are needed to pop the first layer, or 200 / 220 damage. The trivia doesn't say whether the entire spike pile is used up, so both of these fall within required numbers to be consistent with RBE.

BFB = 2884 / 3165 RBE. Subtract 4 MOAB to get 432 / 701. According to trivia, it takes 288 / 317 spikes to pop the BFB. This puts us at ~41 / 82 to pop the outer layer, or 410 / 910 damage. The BTD4 spike value is about consistent. The trivia also reports Moab Mauler only needing 70 attacks to pop the outer layer, which is consistent with 700 damage.

ZOMG = 16,656 RBE. Subtract 4 BFB to get 3996.

DDT = 924 RBE. Subtract 6 ceramics to get 300. Front page says it requires 350.

So even though the other balloons are off slightly (MOAB and BFB almost negligible), the difference in ZOMG is really big which is strange. Either the ZOMG is an exception, or he takes reduced damage from MOAB assassin, which wouldn't be surprising since he takes reduced damage from a lot of attacks.

Thanks for the reply!
