-'''Beak Buster''' is an attack that is used by pressing A then Z.
+The '''Beak Buster''' is an attack learned from [[Bottles]] on [[Mumbo's Mountain]]. When {{Z}} is pressed in the air, usually after jumping, [[Banjo]] will flip upside-down and [[Kazooie]] will pound the ground with her beak. It is arguably one of the most useful moves in the game since it is needed to pound heavy floor switches and can also be used to break fragile objects such as wooded huts. The Beak Buster can also deal heavy damage to enemies, but getting above taller enemies to use the move can be tricky.
-It can be used to attack enemies from above and also to operate floor switches.
-If used when falling from a great height just before hitting the ground; it can reduce the damage taken.
+A tactic adapted from the "Buns of Steel" technique from ''Super Mario 64'' can reduce the amount of damage taken from long falls. If the Beak Buster is used at the bottom of a fall, Banjo instantly loses all his downward momentum, essentially starting the fall over again from a lower point. This is more useful for shorter falls than extremely long ones, since Banjo cannot use the Beak Buster if he has been falling for too long, and using it too soon can lead to taking more damage than with the fall alone.
