Hand Hook

The Hand Hook is a melee weapon exclusive to the Queen and the Sea DLC with a 2 hit combo. The last hit of the combo throws the hit enemy behind you dealing knockback to enemies it hits. When the thrown enemy hits a wall it receives critical damage.

Details

  • The last attack of a combo throws the enemy backwards. If the thrown enemy hits a wall or another entity, it and any other enemies that stand by the wall receives critical damage.
• Breach Bonus: 0.7 / 0.5
  • Base Breach Damage: 68 / 45
  • Base Breach DPS: 171 (254)
• Combo Duration: 0.66 seconds
  • First Hit: 0.26 (0.2 + 0.06 + 0)
  • Second Hit: 0.4 (0.2 + 0.2 + 0)
• Legendary Version:
  • Forced Affix: Bleed on Hit
    • "Makes the victim bleed."

Synergies

• Enemies that are thrown into friendly critters (such as Mushroom Boi!^TBS, Leghugger^TQatS, Maria's Cat^RtC, or pink biters from sources such as Swarm) will receive critical damage as if they hit a wall.
  • Thrown enemies will almost always impact the pet Maria's Cat^RtC if he is seated on your shoulder, taking critical damage.
• Thrown enemies will take critical damage if they impact the deployable Emergency Door.
• Enemies such as The Concierge can be stun locked by repeatedly throwing them with Hand Hook.
  • Grappling Hook and Scheme can be used together in conjunction with this to provide a more consistent and damaging version of this method.
