Ballade Cracker is Ballade's signature weapon, originating from ''[[Mega Man IV]]'' and reappearing in ''[[Mega Man 10]]''. It is featured in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' as of version [[1.6.0]].
Block Dropper is Block Man's signature weapon, originating from ''[[Mega Man 11]]''. It is featured in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' as of version [[1.2.0]].


It lets the user throw a bomb that explodes upon contact with solid terrain, enemies, or objects. By holding the movement keys in the corresponding directions before firing, it can be aimed upwards or diagonally, for a total of seven possible directions. The explosion will bypass any armor or shields the opponent may have as well.
It lets the user summon a row of four bricks near the top of the screen three tiles away that quickly fall straight down. These bricks cannot be deflected, and will crumble upon impact with an enemy or destructible object regardless of whether or not damage as dealt. If the blocks are spawned underwater, they will fall slower. If used while facing near the screen's edge (such as in a connected horizontal section), fewer blocks will be spawned. [[Picketman]] will be insatntly defeated by Block Dropper.


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In its original incarnation, Ballade Cracker was faster, but its speed was lowered in ''Mega Man 10''.
*Block Dropper was added to ''Mega Man Maker'' to celebrate the announcement of the then-upcoming ''Mega Man 11''. Before its official name was revealed, it was called Brick Drop, and it had a different weapon icon prior to version [[1.6.0]].
*Despite being a throwing weapon, Block Dropper could be used while walking in ''Mega Man 11''. This was changed in ''Mega Man Maker'' so as to be consistent with similar weapons, but it's still possible to move while firing if the user is on icy tiles.


*Like [[Scramble Thunder]] Ballade Cracker is one of the few weapons that can destroy [[Wanaan]] when it attacks.
