The Bloon Solver is the Glue Gunner's path 1 tier 5 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It improves the damage-over-time effect of the Glue Gunner's glue, increasing its Ceramic damage from +3 to +9 and increasing its MOAB-Class damage from +0 to +5. It also upgrades the acid puddles dropped from affected Bloons after popping, increasing puddle damage from 2 to 15.
This upgrade increases Glue Gunner's pierce from 2 to 5, lets it fire 2 globs of glue per shot instead of 1, and reduces its attack cooldown by 50%, doubling its attack speed. It also makes Glue Gunner's glue globs splatter upon impact as if Glue Splatter were purchased instead of going through targets.

Many people seem to agree 5xx Glue is ‘good’, but simply outclassed (mainly by 5xx mortar at a similar price). This won’t completely fix that, we hope to work on making the earlier stepping stone tiers a little easier to use and provide the 520 crosspath with a better niche by making Bloon Solver benefit from all pierce twice as much (which x2x provides).

Since glue gunners can’t work together as we all want them to and we could not bite that off for this update, for now have decided to do more for the top and middle paths themselves.
Bloon Solver’s single target power feels like it ramps slowly on larger targets, and while it is mainly a grouped cleanup, we decided to give a nudge here with bonuses to large targets to help with higher round falloff.

“
We want to achieve an effect with Bloon Solver’s acid burning through the layers quickly but not instantly, though we haven’t so far achieved a good balance of this along with eliminating Super Ceramics in a timely manner, causing it to be disappointing or impractical on shorter maps. To solve this while retaining the vision we have boosted the ceramic bonus up significantly along with preventing this bonus from overflowing into the children layers.

DoT Ceramic bonus damage increased ― +2 → +8
DoT increased Ceramic damage will not skip through extra children layers upon breaking the ceramic layer

We were unsure this rework would make it in at all until late and didnt want to mess around too much further before release, so we plan to make further refinements to the numbers in order to bring power properly in line with what we would like - however the long awaited mechanic rework for Relentless & Super Glue is here and we feel it is a promising start. Relentless Glue now brings some AoE stun on layer popping and glue track puddles has been reworked into a dps enhancement for the top path Bloon Solver instead of a hyper niche bottom path stalling bonus (the more ceramics the merrier!).

Upon destroying a Bloon, now drops puddles of acid on the track
- 20 damage
- 1 pierce
- 5s duration
“
Our Glue rework last update wasn't quite ready soon enough to go through in depth balancing of how the new mechanics felt before release, but we still wanted to just get them out and see what people thought anyway, so this is mostly just a bit of catch up on that with fixes to crosspathing value.

Glue puddle: Duration increased ― 5s → 7.7s

Glue puddle: No longer filters out glued targets

Glue puddle: Pierce increased ― 3 → 4

This is not intended to be a significant nerf to the tower’s base game performance so we plan to keep an eye on the change; however the recent top path Glue Gunner changes where duplicating every high level glued Bloon into magnitudes more puddles due to the recurring children multiplication of pre-r80 Bloons. This caused performance issues and effectively broke the game in certain situations so we have limited these puddles to spawn from the first child of glued targets to keep the lategame performance unchanged but hopefully solve the root of this issue in the early game where the main attack is mostly enough to easily deal with all cleanup anyway.

Puddle: Now only dropped from the first child from multi-child Bloons
Puddle: No longer hits Camo Bloons innately
“
Increased duration has limited use on upgrades that completely destroy targets anyway, so a better crosspath benefit is being added onto 401 glue puddles. Bloon Solver’s pierce is being reduced as it is over-overkill for how many Bloons you realistically see at once, but this reduction should not be noticed for most players.

Stickier Glue crosspath allows track puddles to last +1 round
Eject points moved for most upgrade combinations
“
Top path glue struggles with large numbers of targets until T5 where it suddenly has no trouble at all, to improve earlier tier cleanup we’re taking a small amount of power out of the T5 glue puddles but improving T4 puddles and increasing attack rate across lower tiers
