Coasting in slic3r

I have trouble with oozing. Retraction is set to 6mm and travel speed is 50mm. However, there's a blob left by nozzle at the end and is followed by the thin thread.
I've heard about coasting. But I cannot find it in slic3r. Can anybody help?

In the printer settings, on the extruder page there is a setting to turn on "wipe while retracting" near the bottom of the page. Try that.

Already ON. The blob is despite ticking on that setting.

Pressure advance is a better solution than coasting, if your printer's firmware supports it.
