'''Exploding Pineapple''' is the [[Monkey Ace (BTD6)|Monkey Ace]]'s path 2 tier 1 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It grants Monkey Ace an additional attack, which drops an explosive pineapple on the map at the Monkey Ace's location. Pineapples explode after 2 seconds, ~~dealing~~ 1 [[damage]] with 20 [[pierce]] ~~and an~~ [[~~Attack speed~~|~~attack cooldown~~]] ~~of 1.6 seconds~~. Pineapple explosions cannot damage [[Black Bloon (BTD6)|Black Bloons]]. With {{BTD6 mk|Targeted Pineapples}}, pineapples are only dropped on the track instead of anywhere.

'''Exploding Pineapple''' is the [[Monkey Ace (BTD6)|Monkey Ace]]'s path 2 tier 1 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It grants Monkey Ace an additional attack, which drops an explosive pineapple on the map at the Monkey Ace's location every 1.6 seconds (1.2 seconds with [[Rapid Fire (BTD6)|Rapid Fire]]). Pineapples explode after 2 seconds, creating a 35 radius blast that does 1 [[damage]] with 20 [[pierce]] (32 with [[Sharper Darts (BTD6)|Sharper Darts]]. Pineapple explosions cannot damage [[Black Bloon (BTD6)|Black Bloons]]. With {{BTD6 mk|Targeted Pineapples}}, pineapples are only dropped on the track instead of anywhere.

Additionally, explosives from its other upgrade paths are improved:

*MOAB Missiles of [[Fighter Plane (BTD6)|Fighter Plane]] and subsequent upgrades +2 pierce and increased blast radius, and their missiles drop pineapples.

*MOAB Missiles of [[Fighter Plane (BTD6)|Fighter Plane]] and subsequent upgrades +2 pierce and increased blast radius, and their missiles drop pineapples after exploding.

*Bombs of [[Spectre (BTD6)|Spectre]] and [[Flying Fortress (BTD6)|Flying Fortress]] have their pierce increased by +10 or +15 respectively, and +3 blast radius.

Visually, each pineapple is timed from 3 and counts down to 1 before exploding, but each interval is faster than one second.

The pineapple attack is a cheap source of extra pierce, such as for [[Race Event]]s with Ace starts, but its inconsistency due to the unreasonably long timer until exploding makes it incredibly ~~inconsistent and~~ problematic for cheap lead-popping. More often, it's bought for [[Spy Plane (BTD6)|Spy Plane]]'s innate camo detection, or supplement a niche to destroying dense groups for [[Spectre (BTD6)|Spectre]] or [[Fighter Plane (BTD6)|Fighter Plane]] and above.
