'''Recursive Cluster''' is the [[Bomb Shooter (BTD6)|Bomb Shooter]]'s path 3 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''.

'''Recursive Cluster''' is the [[Bomb Shooter (BTD6)|Bomb Shooter]]'s path 3 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It increases the [[damage]] of all explosions by 1, and causes its [[Cluster Bombs (BTD6)|cluster bombs]] to produce tertiary explosions on every second shot. While the secondary explosions visually spawn four tertiary explosions each, they are actually treated as one large explosion with more [[pierce]] and a larger radius than the secondary explosions. The tertiary explosions deal 2 [[Damage#Explosion|Explosion]] damage, and have 4× pierce of the main clusters, for a total of 32 pierce (56 with [[Bigger Bombs (BTD6)|Bigger Bombs]] and 96 with [[Heavy Bombs (BTD6)|Heavy Bombs]]). Recursive bombs' main explosion also have increased pierce, from 14 to 18, but do not gain pierce from [[crosspath]]s, only radius and damage.

Recursive Cluster is excessively powerful in [[Race]] modes, thanks to its extremely high pierce wiping out extreme amounts of Bloons at once, but either {{BTD6|Striker Jones}} or another tower is required for {{BTD6|Black Bloon}}s. Outside of Races, Recursive Cluster is a good mid-game tower to counter clumped Bloons, but is not as powerful. Its power falls off starting on Round 81 due to [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)#Super Ceramic Bloons|Super Ceramics]] appearing.

If using Recursive Cluster spam, {{BTD6|Striker Jones}} is the recommended [[Hero]] due to his plethora of buffs to Bomb Shooters. {{BTD6|Primary Mentoring}} is recommended as well, due to it granting free Tier 1 upgrades.

2-0-4 is the preferred crosspath for Races and {{BTD6|Bloonarius}} due to the supreme importance of pierce there, though 0-2-4 is better elsewhere due to it dealing more single-target damage.
