Strategy
Glue Hose is a consistent method of slowing clumps of bloons, and serves two very different roles depending on its crosspath. It's good as its own T3, but also helpful in the transition to Glue Strike.
The 0-3-2 Glue Hose is tailored for Super Ceramic Bloons past Round 80, with 0-3-2's improved Bloon slow and glue duration making it more efficient against Super Ceramics. It serves its role relatively well, but still leaks Ceramics on hyperdense rounds such as 98. Thus, it pairs well with Arctic Wind, with their compounded slow effects preventing Ceramics from leaking.
2-3-0 is a mid-game support tower, being able to slow down Ceramic Bloons significantly while performing minor damage to them. However, 2-3-0's lack of utility for blimps, slow damage-over-time effect, and struggles against dense clumps of lower-tier Bloons mean that it is generally better to obtain a mid-game tower that performs strong raw damage on these Bloons.

| “ | With an expensive tier 2 and the T3 breaking the $3k mark Glue Hose doesn’t feel justifiable a lot of the time so base cost is being shifted up to T4. — Update notes |
” |
Upgrade cost reduced ― $3,250 → $2,900
Overall cost reduced by $400 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
| “ | Glue Gunner has also had a number of price changes aimed at improving the middle path / crosspathing while avoiding improving MOAB Glue. We’ve already found interesting uses for the top path change so keen to hear about your cool use cases. — Update notes |
” |
Upgrade cost reduced ― $2,900 → $2,500
Overall cost reduced by $550 (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 reduced ― $2,500 → $2,100
Overall cost reduced by $600 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
| “ | Glue Splatter stands out as weirdly expensive for T2, and is rarely even needed so we’re significantly cutting its price to bring it down to a more affordable range with less pierce, we hope this should make it more worth considering for splatter coverage over piercing. — Update notes |
” |
Overall cost reduced by $480 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
Splatter: Pierce bonus reduced ― +4 → +3
- Note: Total pierce reduced from 6 to 5; the initial impact can glue exactly 1 bloon, and the old pierce from x-1-x is treated as 2 to the splatter
Eject points moved for most upgrade combinations
| “ | As it only increases attack speed and Glue Splatter already hits the majority of targets with no trouble this leaves Glue Hose not feeling that compelling, as this path becomes the full map glue anyway we felt we could improve tower range along this path as well. — Update notes |
” |
Range increased ― 46 → 58
Description changed ― "Shoots glue 3x as fast!" → "Shoots glue 3x as fast and in a wider area!"
| “ | a small price shuffling to make Glue Hose more favourable on the journey up to Glue Strike. — Update notes |
” |
Upgrade cost reduced ― $2,100 → $1,950
