MOAB Glue

 Improved glue formula allows it to stick to MOAB-Class Bloons.

| Tower | Glue Gunner — Path 3 — Tier 3 | |

MOAB Glue is the Glue Gunner's path 3 tier 3 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It allows the Glue Gunner to target MOAB-Class Bloons and slow them down but its duration is reduced to 9s. MOAB-Class Bloons under the effects of MOAB Glue are slowed to 0.625x speed (or 0.55x speed with 
Aviation Grade Glue). BADs and Boss Bloons are not slowed by this effect. On other Bloons, the effect is identical to Stronger Glue, though the glue level on all Bloons is increased from 1 to 5 (still 2 if 2-0-3). With Corrosive Glue, MOAB Glue gains +9 bonus damage per tick to MOAB-Class Bloons.

MOAB Glue is a low-cost and reliable MOAB-class slowdown, giving more time for defenses to handle MOAB-class bloons, and has a solid transition into its successor, Relentless Glue. For this reason, it is a valuable support against MOAB-class bloons, and a staple for CHIMPS during Rounds 81-100. Strong is usually the best targeting option, as slowing down a high-tier blimp effectively slows down all of its children. Pair it with discount Villages and Primary Training, as the upgrade can be discounted and Primary Training increases the glue's low pierce.
Beyond damage towers, most supports synergize with blimp slowdown as well. MOAB Press is a staple with MOAB Glue, as glued blimps take much longer to recover from MOAB Press' knockback, and both benefit from Primary Training. MOAB Glue also prevents blimps from traveling far ahead of Giant Condor, reducing Condor's flight distance and allowing it to grab more blimps earlier. Its stall utility also makes it pair well with activated ability towers, such as Bloon Sabotage, by covering for downtime.
MOAB Glue uses the middle crosspath depending on how much pierce is needed. 0-1-3 is a cheap upgrade that doubles pierce, and 0-2-3 is often necessary against dense late game rounds due to how often the glue needs to be reapplied. The top crosspath is useless, even with the increased Corrosive Glue damage.

Upgrade cost increased ― $2,500 → $3,200
| “ | [...] a small increase to MOAB Glue’s price due to dominance in conjunction with MOAB Press. — Update notes |
” |
- Upgrade cost increased ― $3,200 → $3,400
| “ | Very small nerf to the slow amount on MOAB Glue as it has for a long time held a dominating spot in MOAB support, but this same amount has been returned to the previous value at Tier 4. — Update notes |
” |
- Slowdown amount reduced ― 0.625x → 0.75x
- Note: Relentless Glue unchanged
| “ | Due to quirks with game state interactions temporarily preventing more nuanced changes, we have decided to leave MOAB Glue’s slow amount on MOABs as it was previously, coming back to Relentless later. However xx4 Relentless Glue will still layer over the top of it. — Update notes |
” |
Slowing effect for MOAB-class reverted ― ×0.75 → ×0.625
- Overall cost reduced by $50 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
- Overall cost increased by $160 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
| “ | Glue Storm is fantastic now however buildup tiers into it feel they serve little point at all, we're shifting price out of Glue Soak into MOAB Glue and from Glue Hose into Glue Strike so these weaker upgrades can come by sooner. — Update notes |
” |
- Upgrade cost increased ― $3,400 → $3,600
Eject points moved for most upgrade combinations
| “ | MOAB Glue’s duration on MOAB-Class Bloons is being reduced as for such a powerful slow it is so easy to keep a high number of targets glued that the Glue Splatter crosspath still doesn’t feel necessary much of the time — Update notes |
” |
- Glue duration on MOAB-Class Bloons decreased ― 24s → 12s
| “ | Meanwhile, Corrosive Glue now gains bonus MOAB damage so it can now try to serve as an alternate DPS hybrid. — Update notes |
” |
| “ | MOAB Glue’s always been a bit too clingy & its slow duration against MOABs has been further reduced while lasting longer at higher tiers to keep the base tower in check and give Glue Splatter & higher tiers more purpose in life. — Update notes |
” |
- Glue duration for MOAB-Class Bloons reduced ― 12s → 9s
- Note: X-X-4 Relentless Glue remains 12s
- 2-0-3
- Now deals +4 bonus damage per tick to MOAB-Class Bloons
- Main attack: Can no longer target Boss Bloons, projectiles also cannot hit them (undocumented)
- Note: Includes all crosspaths, except 2-X-X Corrosive Glue
| “ | Additionally, we're doubling the potency of MOAB Glue’s acid crosspath to provide more niche value on less dense track lanes. — Update notes |
” |
- 2-0-3
- Damage over time: Bonus damage to MOAB-Class Bloons increased ― +4 → +9
- It should now be able to re-apply its glue on MOAB-Class Bloons (bug fix)
