Neva-Miss Targeting is the third upgrade on Path 1 for the Monkey Ace in Bloons TD 5. This upgrade allows the darts of the Monkey Ace to home in on bloons if they are near the Ace. Only darts that are up to 90° from bloons can home at bloons.
In Battles Mobile, the Neva-Miss is improved to act more like its BTD6 counterpart, having a full 360° seeking detection and higher projectile lifespans, allowing darts to automatically home in on bloons regardless of position, and the Neva-Miss's attack cooldown reduces from 1.43s to 1.2s.
Neva-Miss Targeting provides accurate popping power via the seeking of darts, letting them make the most of its high pierce. However, it can be unreliable, and still needs to be close to the bloons to actually make use of the seeking attacks. In Battles Mobile, this is much less of a problem because the Neva-Miss was reworked to always seek at bloons no matter where the darts are.

Trivia[]
If a Monkey Ace with Neva-Miss Targeting tries to attack a crowd of Camo Bloons without the Spy Plane upgrade, the darts will keep following them and eventually disappear.
Occasionally, darts will keep circling around Bloons and miss them.
Not all the darts will home in on bloons unless there are bloons on that side of the Monkey Ace.
All darts will home on bloons in Bloons TD 5 Mobile and Steam. But as soon as the Monkey Ace shoots another volley of darts, the darts that are already on-screen will disappear.
