Bloon Dissolver (BTD6)

"Extreme solvents melt two layers every second."

- In-game description

Bloon Dissolver is the third upgrade of Path 1 for the Glue Gunner in Bloons TD 6.

This upgrade improves the glue to dissolve bloons at a much faster rate. Despite the description, Bloon Dissolver glue pops one layer every 0.575 seconds, not exactly twice every second. Given enough time, it is capable of fully neutralizing Rainbow Bloons and below even without Stickier Glue.

It costs $2,125 on Easy, $2,500 on Medium, $2,700 on Hard, and $3,000 on Impoppable.

Summary
Bloon Dissolver increases the power of Corrosive Glue so that the Glue Gunner becomes built as an offensive cleanup tower versus bloons. It is weaker than alternate cleanup options, but it comes with the benefit of combined slowdown and decently quick damage-over-time. Its damage-over-time is fast enough to outpace Regrows (assuming normal regen rate), and reliably takes down Rainbows given enough time. Bloon Dissolver can be combined with Ice Monkeys with Re-Freeze to maximize the numbers of glued bloons.

Tips

 * Similarly in BTD5, this upgrade is great against any bloon type up to Ceramic (but not Super Ceramics). It deals low damage to MOABs, and since glue lasts half as long on MOAB-class bloons only minuscule damage is inflicted anyway.
 * Regrow Bloons can be easily countered with a minimum of Bloon Dissolver, assuming Regrow rate is at the normal rate.
 * Because the glue lasts for 11 seconds by default (24 seconds with 3-0-1 or 3-0-2), it will deal a maximum of 19 damage before the glue wears off (or 41 damage with 3-0-1 or 3-0-2), thereby neutralizing anything below a Ceramic.

Trivia

 * Like its previous upgrade but unlike its BTD5 counterpart, Bloon Dissolver's hands and feet seem to be fully exposed, despite the artwork depicting it flinging out glue wildly.
 * Bloon Dissolver can pop a whole normal Ceramic for the duration of the glue given enough time. It will fail to pop a whole normal Fortified Ceramic without Path 3 upgrades.
