Main attack: Now retains the 3-x-x rate boost instead of 1-x-x ― 0.75s → 0.15s
- Upgrade cost reduced ― $9,000 → $7,500
- 4-1-0, 4-2-0
- Grape Shot: Now fires 10 grapes at a time instead of 5 (11 instead of 6 with
Big Bunch)
- Plane: Missile attack added
- 4-2-0
No longer gains Camo detection after loading a save (bug fix)
“
Aircraft carriers have ongoing trouble with missing targets, these changes can hopefully offer a few extra ways of supporting the weakness internally while we keep investigating this.

- Plane forward attack: Projectile radius increased ― 2 units → 4 units
- Overall cost reduced by $50 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
“
Most cases for Buccaneer currently find you better off sticking to Destroyers and adding other buffs, so we have made a couple slight nudges to this top path

- Upgrade cost reduced ― $7,500 → $7,200
- Overall cost reduced by $250 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
“
Bottom crosspath feels behind compared to others here, so in addition to the new Camo Prioritization filter Longer Range on this path will now also grant bonus pierce.

- 4-0-1, 4-0-2
- Long Range now increases the pierce of plane darts by 1
- Overall cost reduced by $200 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
“
Reworking Grape Shot crosspathing as it gains far too much crosspath value by T2 but then is lacking in purpose at higher tiers, double shot will only work as one extra grape however Destroyer will now apply its full attack rate buff to the grapes and Flagship will equip aspects of Grape Shot on the mini planes.

- Aircraft Carrier missiles now follow tower target priority
- Aircraft Carrier plane radials damage ― 1 → 2
- 4-1-0, 4-2-0
- Grape Shot: projectiles reduced ― 10 → 6
- Grape Shot: attack cooldown decreased ― 0.39s → 0.195s
Aircraft Carrier planes radial attack now fires an arc of grapes instead of darts- Aircraft Carrier planes radial Emission Angle ― 360 → 90
- Aircraft Carrier planes radial projectile count ― 8 → 6
- Aircraft Carrier plane grape projectile speed ― 100 → 200
- 4-2-0
- Aircraft Carrier planes radial damage type ― Sharp → Fire
“
Small tweaks to Buccaneer’s Long Range upgrade to improve its additional pierce benefit for a number of attacks.

- 4-0-1, 4-0-2
- Plane darts: Bonus pierce increased ― +1 → +2
- Resolved some issues with Aircraft Carrier planes being blocked from spawning on Water Park (bug fix)
“
Aircraft Carrier is just a little expensive for what it offers over staying at T3, and Flagship high-end strategic value recently became a little harder due to synergies being price nerfed, so we’re doing some small cost cutting between the two of these upgrades mainly to relieve that loss for the T5 slightly but also help T4.

- Upgrade cost reduced ― $7,200 → $6,900
“
Aircraft Carrier has many problems in general and we could write multiple paragraphs about what went on with the decision making on this one upgrade but tldr; overhauling the feel with a big shuffle around of stats and greatly improved targeting to make the tower far more enjoyable & reliable.

- Plane main attack: Now seeks Bloons
- Plane main attack: Damage increased ― 1 → 2
- Plane main attack: Range increased ― 200 → 250
- Plane radial attack: Damage increased ― 2 → 4
- Plane radial attack: Max distance reduced ― 150 units → 60 units
- Plane main attack: Pierce reduced ― 9 → 4
- 4-2-0
- Plane radial attack: Damage type changed ― Sharp → Fire
- Plane radial attack: Now applies Fire-type damage over time
“
General improvements made to higher tier DoT applications for Buccaneer. The pierce from bottom crosspath seems to be better after destroyer currently, so this also acts as some crosspath balancing for Flagship.

- 4-2-0
- Grapes (main and aircraft): Damage-over-time tick damage increased ― 2 → 4
- Planes now have camo restored when Polyphemus Eye is opened (bug fix)
“
Aircraft Carrier has been performing well above its price point so this is being increased, though it is also worth noting due to a bug fix in Flagship’s AI also in this update we expect it may overall still be improved.

- Upgrade cost increased ― $6,900 → $8,000
- Plane: Can again attack while not facing south (bug fix)
“
Aircraft Carrier is too high power for the price so we are reducing plane attack speed but have left 420 path radials unchanged as it has been the less powerful crosspath after T3 for a while.

”
- Plane forward attack: cooldown increased ― 0.15s → 0.18s
- Plane radial attack: cooldown increased ― 1s → 1.2s
- Note: Cooldown when crosspathed with Grape Shot remains the same
- Buccaneer Planes should again attack when facing directions other than south (bug fix)
“
Aircraft Carrier is in a very strong position right now however it suffers from inconsistency, so we have increased the field of view for the Buccaneer Plane attacks so it can spend more time actively attacking

”
- Mini planes: Field of view increased ― 60° → 90°
- Note: This field of view value allows to see Bloons more reliably. 5-X-X remains at 90.
“
Aircraft Carrier’s lifespan is being tweaked slightly to properly tie in the xx1 crosspath as a projectile distance buff for all projectiles rather than just the small selection it currently buffs.

- Plane radial attack: Projectile lifespan increased ― 0.3s → 0.35s
“
The Aircraft Carrier has been both overpowered and unreliable, so we're tweaking plane movement for better consistency with a fire rate tradeoff.
