Strategy
editRapid Fire is not worth it for the 0-0-0 Monkey Ace, as it does less DPS per cost. However, it serves a strong role as a crosspath, improving the damage output of all Monkey Aces. Bomber Ace and its succeeding upgrades especially appreciate this crosspath for increased consistency. Although the timing of shots can alter the bombs' drop locations, the increased rate more than compensates their low rate of fire. Neva-Miss Targeting and above benefit this for improved DPS, though Lots More Darts is also strongly recommended for them.

| “ | Exploding pineapples gained a larger rate bonus from crosspathing than the main attack did to make up for its base rate being so poor, so we’re fixing that poor base rate while keeping the crosspath bonus the same. — Update notes |
