“ | Splatters glue across up to 6 Bloons per shot. | ” |
~ In-game description |
Glue Splatter is the second upgrade of Path 2 for the Glue Gunner in Bloons TD 6. It allows the Glue Gunner's glue blobs to splat on impact. Once a glue blob collides with a bloon, it produces an area-of-effect that splatters glue onto up to 6 bloons per splatter (8 with the More Splatty Glue MK). Also, Glue Splatter increases the pierce bonuses of secondary benefits, such as +2 pierce for acid puddles from Bloon Liquefier and The Bloon Solver for a total of +3 pierce, and the pierce of stunwaves of Relentless Glue and Super Glue.
This upgrade costs $1,230 on Easy, $1,450 on Medium, $1,565 on Hard, and $1,740 on Impoppable.
Description[]
Overview[]
A Glue Gunner with Glue Splatter receive an orange protective suit and green goggles. If given as a crosspath, the orange section with Tier 2 crosspaths are guaranteed to be on the monkey's right side, while the Tier 1 upgrades Glue Soak and Stickier Glue add their respective items. For Tier 3 and 4 upgrades, an orange stripe is added to the monkey's head.
Glue Splatter changes the projectile to splat on impact, gluing up to 6 bloons per splatter. This fits in the idea of Glue Splatter splashing at bloons.
Glue Splatter is considered a Level 1 glue, unless given unless given higher-tier glues, specifically at least Corrosive Glue or MOAB Glue. Higher-tier upgrades can override this glue.
Targeting Priorities[]
Glue Splatter targets bloons using the standard targeting priorities. It shoots straight movement projectiles.
- First: Targets the first bloon visible within its range.
- Last: Targets the last bloon visible within its range.
- Close: Targets the closest bloon visible within its range.
- Strong: Targets the strongest bloon visible within its range.

Strategy[]
Summary[]
Glue Splatter allows the glue to affect many more bloons per shot by creating an area-of-effect. It is a very expensive option for the early game, especially compared to its tier status, but its crowd control can be very effective. The greatest value of Glue Splatter comes from adding crosspaths.
Tips[]
- Glue Splatter changes the projectile from a typical one to a impact projectile with a resulting explosion radius. This means that Bigger Globs can pierce through multiple bloons while Glue Splatter's projectile will stop at the first bloon it hits. It is very situational, typically depending on whether the bloons are thinly spread enough to not be affected by Glue Splatter, and even then, it also depends on the specific round where glue support is needed.
- Like many Primary upgrades, it is recommended to combine Glue Splatter with the Top Path Monkey Village, as the Glue Gunner can save money on a few upgrades and receive powerful buffs. In particular, Primary Expertise removes all cost of Glue Splatter, making the Glue Splatter upgrade an excellent crowd control for super cheap.
Version History[]
Balance Changes[]
Missing some of the Glue Splatter pierce benefit buffs that were added to secondary effects of Solver, Liquefier, Relentless, and Super Glue, and all related buffs regarding that |
It costs cheaper than it did in BTD5, but otherwise there has not been significant changes besides fixing a few quirky interactions when interacting with Glue Splatter as it is a simple upgrade. In both instances of a price decrease, 35.0 and 41.0, the Glue Splatter had its cost decreased on the basis that the MOAB Glue had its price increased, to favor Glue Splatter as a cheap grouped slower rather than just as a powerful pierce crosspath.
- Initial release (compared to BTD5)
- Cost of Glue Splatter decreased ($2,200 → $1,800)
