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. However, it's an important crosspath for Dart Storm and Sky Shredder, to maximize its cleanup potential, arguably more impactful for them than the middle crosspath benefits.

- Now reduces ability cooldown by 5s (bug)
- 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. — Update notes |
