Captain Cassie is a DPS character that by default, can only be placed in water or neutral terrain. She suffers from a bug that locks her aiming direction in place, which means that the player must either opt for a build with less attack speed or run lots of attack speed but position Cassie in a place where she will aim well. This bug renders Captain Cassie as a character that does not find much of a use once the player acquires other characters. <!--could you reposition her with martian transports for viability?-->
Captain Cassie is a character that by default, can only be placed in water or neutral terrain. She is mainly a support character who takes advantage of buffing her [[Tech Terror (BATTD)|Tech Terror]]s with [[Camo detection]] and extra [[range]], as well as utilizing buffing trinkets like [[Warning Horn]] and [[Siren Hat]] for more speed to them.


Like most DPS characters, Captain Cassie wants attack speed and MOAB damage, but because her Grapes cannot be buffed by raw attack bonuses, non-specific damage buffs have nearly no effect on her DPS. Baker's Shard is the most important attack speed trinket for her, while her weapon should either be [[Time Bomb]] as it gives lots of attack speed, or alternatively [[Bomb & Chain]] as it adds an extra projectile if avoiding the rotation lock from attacking too fast. [[Engineers Blueprints]] is practically essential for boosting her DPS, but if avoiding too many attack speed buffs, [[Demon Heart]] can be used for buffing her bomb damage, while [[Baby Tooth]] reduces the cooldown of her [[MOAB Takedown (BATTD)|MOAB Takedown]] ability. Note that MOAB Takedown gets more damage from having more [[Pirate Crew]] allies on the map, so on maps without water, [[Lady Rainicorn]] should be saved for her Pirate Crew if relying on her ability.
She does not do great DPS even when fully stocked with trinkets, as many other characters simply do more damage than her grape shot spray. If however the player wishes to make this build, normal damage buffs will not apply to the grape shot, but situational damage buffs like [[Engineers Blueprints]] do, which is practically essential for boosting her DPS. Her [[MOAB Takedown (BATTD)|MOAB Takedown]] ability can stall and deal damage to BADs she has line of sight towards, and can hook multiple BADs with a high enough attack speed. [[Pirate Crew]] are recommended to increase the damage, and as they can only be placed on water, Cassie can be equipped with the [[Jetpack]] to conserve space for them, and to position her well while the boat is stuck in one position. [[Lady Rainicorn]] can also be used to place even more Pirate Crew in the event there is lacking or no water on the map.
 
[[Bomb & Chain]] is her best weapon in either build, as it provides the best range bonus and ensures she stays under an attack speed of 8 to prevent the [[List_of_errors_in_BATTD#Captain_Cassie|boat from failing to rotate]].
