The player gets 1 XP point per 1 Bloon popped but the XP gained for popping bloons in not equal to RBE. For example, reducing M.O.A.B. to Ceramic Bloons takes 200 hits so 200 points to RBE but it is only 1 pop so only 1 XP point. The player gets a new Rank when they reach certain amounts of XP.

In BTD4, the bar showing how much XP you had also showed how many more bloons you had to pop before you go up a rank. In BTD5, the information is shown as pop up message when the player moves the mouse over the XP bar.

Tower XP

Certain amounts unlock new tower upgrades for each tower. Final upgrades must be unlocked also by reaching a certain Rank. The path 1 upgrades usually require less XP than the path 2 ones.
