FAQs
Is Monolith Arrow better than Giant Arrow?
For piercing damage absolutely yes — but Giant Arrow is better for wide-area splash. Different tools for different attacks!
What level should I upgrade Monolith Arrow to first?
Max it ASAP — level 1 to max doubles the damage and makes it viable at TH16!
