[Feedback] Restore the "Bonk Monkey" for 0.5

Recent balance passes have significantly nerfed the Monkey’s lethality. While this helped campaign progression, the iconic fear of this encounter was lost in the process.

I urge GGG to bring back the Bonk Monkey for Patch 0.5. I'm suggesting to revert the damage nerf so it remains a one-shot, but also tighten up the hitboxes to ensure damage only occurs where the pillar actually lands. This change will restore this memorable encounter.

Even though I am not an one-shots advocate, I found this particular case to be fun.
Legacy been made, don't erase the tradition!

If any boss deserves one-shot mechanic, it's definitely the Bonk Monkey.
