Bloon Dissolver is the Glue Gunner's path 1 tier 3 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It improves the damage-over-time effect of the Glue Gunner's glue, making it tick every 0.5 seconds instead of every 2 seconds, and increases the damage-over-time's Ceramic damage from +0 to +2. This upgrade also increases Glue Gunner's pierce by 1 and decreases Attack cooldown by 50% (from 1 second to 0.5 seconds).

Strategy

Bloon Dissolver is good for cleanup during the early-game and mid-game, with its glue being able to take down pre-Round 81 Ceramic Bloons with one hit. However, it fares significantly worse on Expert maps due to Bloons slipping by more often and Ceramics having less time to pop before reaching the exit. When using Bloon Dissolver, it is recommended to prevent other towers from popping high-tier Bloons into many low-tier ones that it struggles against. 3-2-0 is the optimal crosspath, as the extra pierce alleviates its weakness against rounds with large clumps low-tier Bloons, such as Round 49.

Bloon Solver appears to be in a fair state now but with low value save up into it from Dissolver & Liquifier, slight improvements have been made here to assist them in cleaning up in some cases it feels they should
— Update notes

  •   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
