Centered Path is the Monkey Ace's path 3 tier 2 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It grants Monkey Ace a new targeting option called Centered Path. When this option is selected, Monkey Ace flies in a circle around a point which may be set anywhere on the map. Upon buying the upgrade, the Monkey Ace is automatically set to Centered Path, defaulting its point at the centre of the map.
This circle has a radius of 90 units, slightly larger than that of Circle targeting which is 80 units.

- 0-5-2
Now reduces ability cooldown by 5s (bug)
- Overall cooldown reduced ― 45s → 30s (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. — Update notes |
” |
- 0-1-2, 0-2-2, 0-3-2, 0-4-2, 0-5-2
- Pineapple/bomb explosions now gain +12 pierce from Sharper Darts
- 0-5-2
No longer reduces ability cooldown by 5s, on top of 1-5-0 and 0-5-1 also no longer reducing 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 |
” |
- Dart: Projectile size increased ― 2 → 3
- Base Monkey Ace attack cooldown reduced ― 2.1s → 1.68s
- 0-1-2, 0-2-2, 0-3-2, 0-4-2, 0-5-2
- Exploding Pineapple: attack cooldown reduced ― 3s → 2s
| “ | Now allows you to find your center. Very zen. — Update notes |
” |
- Centered Path mode: Now allows the player to change the center point of the path
| “ | 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 |
” |
- Reverse flight pattern added
- Ace ‘centered path' markers now visually update immediately after setting new points (bug fix)
- Resolved an issue where reversing flight path before purchasing Centered Path would prevent the centered path target from flying in the correct direction (bug fix)
- Note: nerf to ace micro
- Upgrading to Centered Path no longer refreshes the cooldown on the special toggle (bug fix)
| “ | Centered Path these days adds a lot more potential power to Ace than before and we are moving price down into it from Neva-Miss. — Update notes |
” |
- Upgrade cost increased ― $300 → $550
