Heroes

Heroes are a new addition to Bloons TD 6. They are a series of very powerful towers that have unique attacks and activated abilities. The player may choose one of these heroes for every game. Only one type of hero and, currently, one hero only may be placed on the track per game; the sole exception is Co-Op Mode, where each player may place their own selected hero on the map, though Hero XP is split among each player.

Using Heroes[edit | edit source]

Unlike normal towers, only one hero can be placed on the track for each game and automatically gaining XP needed to upgrade itself, making them more useful the earlier they are placed. XP gain can be increased or decreased by outside factors, such as Energizer.

However, they can also be upgraded instantly for a sum of in-game cash. The more EXP a hero already has, the lower the amount of cash required to upgrade the hero to the next level. Spending money to level your hero also increases sell price.

Each hero has multiple abilities (all have two with the exception of Ezili and Adora, who both have three) that can be used in your advantage. The first ability is unlocked at level 3, and the second ability is unlocked at level 10; for both Ezili and Adora, they gain their third ability at Level 7. The highest level a hero can be is 20.

Hero Levelling[edit | edit source]

Heroes require a set amount of XP per level (see BTD6 Heroes XP). For most purposes, the amount of money needed for an upgrade is the amount of XP required. Heroes gain XP at the end of the round by the same formula as towers (see BTD6 Towers XP).

All heroes have a specific XP ratio. Heroes with a higher XP ratio require more XP to level up and therefore level up slower.
- All four base heroes (Quincy, Gwendolin, Striker Jones, Obyn Greenfoot) and Etienne all have an XP ratio of 1x.
- Ezili, Pat Fusty, and Admiral Brickell have a 1.425x XP ratio.
- Benjamin has an XP ratio of 1.5x.
- Captain Churchill and Adora have a ratio of 1.8x.
Energizer is the only tower that increases leveling speed.
There is Monkey Knowledge that affects hero leveling speed.
As maps usually do for player and tower XP, they increase the XP earned for heroes by 10% for each track difficulty above beginner.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

Pat Fusty, Gwendolin, Quincy (in his Cyber Quincy skin), Ezili and Etienne are the only heroes that call out a B.A.D. by its name.
Among all the heroes that call out a M.O.A.B. by its name, Striker Jones and Etienne says 'M-O-A-B', while other heroes all pronounces MOAB as 'Moah-AB'.
Heroes say different voice lines when wearing an alternate skin.
Pat Fusty has the shortest range of all of the heroes.
Adora has the longest range of any hero when her Long Arm of Light ability is active.
