In | '''Arrow Barrels''',<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet, {{media link|DKC2 Manual 18-19.jpg|page 18}}.</ref> also known as '''Blast Barrels''',{{ref needed}} are a type of [[Blast Barrel]] with a white arrow on the side appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' Like normal Blast Barrels, they fire the [[Kong]]s out automatically after they jump inside. Unlike Blast Barrels, which often turn before firing, Arrow Barrels always face a fixed direction, making it clear where the Kongs will be fired before they jump inside. Most Arrow Barrels point straight upwards or at an upwards angle and are used to climb vertically oriented stages. Usually, they have a relatively weak blast, allowing the Kongs to slightly control their paths in the air, which is less common in normal Blast Barrels. However, a few Arrow Barrels have stronger blasts that put the Kongs on an uncontrollable linear paths. | ||
In non-[[Rare Ltd.|Rareware]] games starting with ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', the Arrow Barrels' design is adapted to standard [[Barrel Cannon]]s, likely to make them better stand out from normal [[barrel]]s. | |||
