Sharper Darts is the general pierce crosspath. This upgrade alone only really stands out when extra pierce is important, such as [[Race Event]]s and CT Time Attack. However, it's an important crosspath for [[Operation: Dart Storm (BTD6)| Dart Storm]] and [[Sky Shredder (BTD6)|Sky Shredder]], to maximize its cleanup potential, arguably more impactful for them than the middle crosspath benefits.

Sharper Darts is the general pierce crosspath. This upgrade alone only really stands out when extra pierce is important, such as Race Events and CT Time Attack, and generally the more helpful crosspaths for Exploding Pineapple and Bomber Ace on these modes to take full advantage of extra pierce. However, it's an important crosspath for Operation: Dart Storm and Sky Shredder, to maximize its cleanup potential, arguably more impactful for them than the middle crosspath benefits.

  • Buff Now reduces ability cooldown by 5s (bug)
    • Buff Overall cooldown reduced ― 45s → 35s (due to changes to the base cooldown)
While Pineapples are never the star of the show, the amount of pierce they have is completely unnecessary for their usage window and has only led to balance problems for Bombing Run, specifically in races. This high amount of pierce has been more evenly spread through higher tiers & crosspath.

0-1-1, 0-2-1, 0-3-1, 0-4-1, 0-5-1
  • Buff Pineapple/bomb explosions now gain +12 pierce from Sharper Darts
0-5-1
  • Nerf No longer reduces ability cooldown by 5s (bug fix)
Monkey Ace was never intended to be a great starting tower and instead come into power at mid- and high-tier upgrades, but since the base tower feels lacking to new players (and some of us old timers) we decided to rework low tier power into the base tower.
— Update notes
  • Buff Dart: Projectile size increased ― 2 → 3
  • Buff Base Monkey Ace attack cooldown reduced ― 2.1s → 1.68s
0-1-1, 0-2-1, 0-3-1, 0-4-1, 0-5-1
  • Buff Exploding Pineapple: attack cooldown reduced ― 3s → 2s
More of a straight quality of life, Ace has gained a new special toggle button to allow it to turn back and fly in reverse on any selected flight pattern.
— Update notes
  • Buff Reverse flight pattern added
