'''Relentless Glue''' is the [[Glue Gunner (BTD6)|Glue Gunner]]'s path 3 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It improves the Glue Gunner's glue effect, causing Bloons popped while under its effect to create a small splatter which stuns nearby Bloons. This splatter deals no damage, has a [[pierce]] of 6, and an effect radius of 12 [[Unit|units]]. Non-[[MOAB-Class Bloon]]s impacted by this splatter are stunned for 1 seconds, while [[MOAB (BTD6)|MOABs]] and [[DDT (BTD6)|DDTs]] are stunned for 0.25 seconds. MOAB-Class Bloons other than MOABs and DDTs cannot be targeted<!--i.e. no pierce consume, unlike engi foam consume on non-camo for instance--> by the splatter. Splatter stuns soak all non-blimp layers.  
'''Relentless Glue''' is the [[Glue Gunner (BTD6)|Glue Gunner]]'s path 3 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It improves its glue duration on MOAB-class Bloons from 9 to 12 seconds, and additionally causes Bloons popped while under its effect to create a small splatter that stuns nearby Bloons. This splatter deals no damage, has a [[pierce]] of 6, and an effect radius of 12 [[Unit|units]]. Non-[[MOAB-Class Bloon]]s impacted by this splatter are stunned for 1 second, [[MOAB (BTD6)|MOABs]] for 0.25 seconds, and [[DDT (BTD6)|DDTs]] for 0.2 seconds. MOAB-Class Bloons other than MOABs and DDTs cannot be targeted<!--i.e. no pierce consume, unlike engi foam consume on non-camo for instance--> by the splatter. Splatter stuns soak all non-blimp layers.  


Additionally this upgrade increases glue duration to MOAB-Class Bloons from 9s to 12s. <!-- lede might need to be reworked -->
[[Bigger Globs (BTD6)|Bigger Globs]] increases on-pop splat pierce increased by 1, and [[Glue Splatter (BTD6)|Glue Splatter]] further increases on-pop splat pierce by 2 (4 with {{BTD6 mk|More Splatty Glue}}). [[Corrosive Glue (BTD6)|Corrosive Glue's]] bonus damage to MOAB-Class Bloons is further increased from +9 to +19.

Like its previous upgrade, {{BTD6|MOAB Glue}}, Relentless Glue is a staple support in [[CHIMPS]] during Rounds 81-100. Its added stun provides valuable help for other towers, especially against DDTs. [[Tower]]s and [[Hero]]es that deal extra damage to stunned targets, such as {{BTD6|Sauda}} and {{BTD6|Pop and Awe}}, benefit especially well from Relentless Glue. Relentless Glue also synergizes with other support towers, such as {{BTD6|MOAB Press}}, which knocks back more blimps at once thanks to Relentless Glue's stun clumping blimps.

0-2-4 is the superior crosspath for Relentless Glue, as the increased pierce on both the main glue and splats is extremely valuable. While 2-0-4 allows Relentless Glue's splats to trigger when every subsequent layer of small Bloons that the main glue hits pops, it provides little benefit during the mid-game, where 2-0-4 has lackluster pierce. Past Round 80, MOAB-Class Bloons (which 2-0-4 does not soak through) become dominant, and {{BTD6|Super Ceramic Bloon}}s mean that Bloons spawn far less insides and trigger far less splats even when the main glue hits them, making 2-0-4 even less useful there.

Also, the bonus MOAB-class DoT is still not enough to be impactful, even with [[Symphonic Resonance]]'s DoT detonations.

==Trivia==
*Its previous ability to create glue puddles on the track was likely inspired by the third upgrade of the [[Glue Supply Depot]]. This ability has since been moved to {{BTD6|Bloon Dissolver}} and {{BTD6|The Bloon Solver}}.
*Despite having two guns, it does not fire two globs of glue. Ironically, The Bloon Solver has this behavior.
