Monkey Bank is just too stonks even without Benjamin. This nerf shouldn’t hurt it too much, but will make it snowball a little bit slower and balance with the other paths better.

Tiers Changes
X-3-X Monkey Bank
  •   Upgrade cost increased ― $3,300 → $3,500
Banana Farm’s xx2 upgrade is the inferior crosspath, so we’ve amped up the utility with the lazy aspect so that if it’s going to be inferior for production, it’s at least going to be extra lazy & less far behind. Additionally, as Monkey Wall Street is the least interesting T5 Banana Farm & doesn’t benefit from the Healthy Bananas MK it will now produce a base amount of lives each round

Tiers Changes
X-3-X Monkey Bank and further upgrades
  •   Resolved an issue where fractional cash amounts could sometimes round up instead of down (bug fix)

  •   Now autocollects at the end of the round with no delay if capacity is full
X-X-1 EZ Collect and all crosspaths
X-X-2 Banana Salvage and all crosspaths

X-X-2 Banana Salvage and all crosspaths
  •   Banana Salvage's salvage value increased ― 50% → 85%
X-X-2 Banana Salvage and all crosspaths
X-X-3 Marketplace and further upgrades
  •   Sellback value increased by 10%
X-X-5 Monkey Wall Street
  •   Now generates 10 lives per round
Partially to help a little with tedious endgame farm collection in ranked boss events, or any other use you may desire for it, we have added a non-power form of easy banana collection. However we do not want to trivialize the intended downside of opting for a more micro intensive farm path too much, so this is still restricted behind a low-range tier 5 upgrade.

Tiers Changes
X-X-5 Monkey Wall Street
  •   Monkey Wall Street now collects nearby bananas/crates as a Banana Farmer would
Bank is a little too much more efficient than any other Banana Farm option, this price nerf should leave it so it really somewhat still is but not so far ahead.

Tiers Changes
X-3-X Monkey Bank
  •   Upgrade cost increased ― $3,500 → $3,800
For sake of consistency we want Monkey Bank to increase in cash generation when used with sources that externally buff generation so everything works as expected, however along with this buff the current power of IMF loan on this path already feels too strong so we are lowering that power for IMF Loan in exchange.

Tiers Changes
X-3-X Monkey Bank and further upgrades
  •   Now increases in cash generation with external buffs
  •   Income generation now works with More Valuable Bananas monkey knowledge (undocumented)
X-4-X IMF Loan
  •   Resolved a bug that caused Collecting All from multiple x3x Banks or higher to only target repayment back towards a single active IMF Loan (bug fix)
X-4-X IMF Loan
X-5-X Monkey-Nomics
  •   Ability cash granted reduced ― $10,000 → $9000
X-X-2 Banana Salvage and further upgrades
  •   Cash generated does not record to the cash counter (bug)
X-X-5 Monkey Wall Street
  •   Range increased ― 40 → 60
Tiers Changes
X-X-2 Banana Salvage and further upgrades
  •   Resolved an issue with xx2 Banana Farms not visually recording to their cash earned counter if it was not manually collected (bug fix)
Tiers Changes
5-X-X Banana Central
  •   Banana Central no longer buffs other Banana Centrals in co-op (bug fix)
The current power of xx5 Village combined with previous nerfs to Middle Farm have it currently feeling underappreciated for farm profits, some slight price adjustment.

Tiers Changes
X-3-X Monkey Bank
  •   Upgrade cost reduced ― $3,800 → $3,650
X-4-X IMF Loan
  •   Upgrade cost reduced ― $7,500 → $7,200
Tiers Changes
X-X-5 Monkey Wall Street
  •   Banana collection radius now increases correctly with buffs (bug fix)
Banana Central’s current level of buffability for a single tower makes it quite exceptional of a cash producer right now so it is increasing in cost. Players have made it clear that for Boss Events the current cooldown on IMF Loan regularly puts it into a position where timing is frustratingly tight in order to maximize profits when farming with banks, so we’ve agreed to loosen up on this cooldown to help with this issue. Finally, the Banana Salvage crosspath is also being increased in cost to reflect the current huge value granted to it with sellback metas where it is used.
