Grand Piano is the level six Drop gag. It succeeds the Safe but precedes the Toontanic.

General

The Grand Piano can be obtained once the toon earns a total of 6,000 Drop skill points. A toon can move up to the next level gag, the Toontanic, after earning a total of 10,000 Drop skill points.

Unlike the first five Drop gags, the Grand Piano increases in damage over the course of Drop training. At first, the Grand Piano can deal a maximum damage of "85". The maximum damage gradually increases if the Drop skill bar increases, maximizing to a damage of 170 after obtaining the next gag. If grown on a tree and is organic, the maximum damage increases by eight to seventeen.

As with all Drop gags, except the Toontanic, the Grand Piano targets one cog.

A toon can carry a maximum of three Grand Pianos.

Skill points

Previous level Next level 6000 10000 Formula In equation form: $\frac{X - Y}{(M - O)}$ X represents the skill points for the next gag Y represents the starting point of this gag M represents the maximum damage O represents the original starting point

To determine the next increase in cog damage for a Grand Piano, take the number of skill points required to obtain the next gag and divide it by one more than the number of increase (the maximum cog damage + 1 - the original cog damage). By using this method, you will get an estimate of the increase in damage.

The Grand Piano equation:

$\frac{10000-6000}{171-85}=\frac{4000}{86}=46.51$

For every 47 skill points, the Grand Piano's damage attributes increase.

Damage	Skill points
85	6000
90	6233
100	6698
110	7163
120	7628
130	8093
140	8559
150	9024
160	9489
170	9954

Animation

1. The toon will pull out a trigger box.
2. The toon will activate the switch, causing a grand piano to fall at the targeted cog.
3. If the gag works, the grand piano will land on the cog, landing on the cog's back.
4. The cog will slowly get up as the piano vanishes.
   • If the gag misses, the piano will fall behind the cog, and the cog will taunt the toon.
