what you are descibing is just a monster set to face downward and shoot projectiles (droplets) in intervals. you should be able to do this with no coding

Is there a tutorial on monsters that shoot projectiles?

My mistake, I assumed there was still a monster shoot script in ai actions.
heres some info:
www.nesmakers.com
first step will be to set the script Dale_Coop made in that thread to one of your ai action scripts:
-save the script as something like "monstershoot.asm"
-go to project settings, click "script settings" tab, go to game >AI behaviours
-pick an unused (blank one) and replace it with the monstershoot.asm
now go to the project labels tab, click action types, then re-name the SAME action that you just replaced with something you will recognize like "shoot forward"
then you create 2 monsters. 1 is the creature, and one is the drip.
as for your drip object, you would not want to set it to ignore gravity. you would also probably not want any speed at all.
also make sure that the drip destroys itself, or you will find out how bad slowdowns can get.
heres some info:
monster prodjectile
i was wondering how you would make a monster shoot a prodjectile like i see in other games made with nesmaker such as spirit impel and paws of the west, i had an idea for a boss to shoots a prodjectile in all 4 directions every so often but cant find the script to shoot prodjectiles for monsters...

The ai action scripts are what lets us have enemies do anything other than just move around the map. Make backups, and if something goes wrong we will find a solution.

And certain action steps it has no collision

They're not hardcoded. But the tiles in some modules are. If you need help with ai scripts hit me up bro.
