Kill Rhythm is a survival-scaling mutation which increases the attack speed of a weapon's next attack if the last attack was with a different weapon.

Details[edit]

  • Special Effects:
    • While using a weapon in the main slots, switching to the other weapon increases attack speed by [15 base]% for 2 seconds.
  • Scaling: +1% attack speed per Survival stat

Notes[edit]

  • The effect does not stack.
    • Kill Rhythm's speed boost lasts for 2 seconds or until you use an attack, whichever comes first.
    • Attack speed from this mutation only increases the charge speed of weapons, and does not reduce animation lock or cooldown.
  • Has good synergy with many two handed weapons, like the Heavy Crossbow Icon.png Heavy Crossbow, Ice Crossbow Icon.png Ice Crossbow, Scythe Claw Icon.png Scythe Claws, and Hard Light Sword Icon.png Hard Light Set, as they already rely on alternating attacks.
    • This mutation increases the charge speed of weapons with charge attacks such as Flint Icon.png Flint or Toothpick Icon.png Toothpick.
    • Attempting to use a weapon while it is out of ammo will still incur the effect, most easily with weapons like the Cross Icon.png Cross or Throwable Objects Icon.png Throwable Objects that can be quickly depleted of ammo.
    • Using a weapon and then cancelling its charge with a jump, roll, parry, or Homunculus Rune Icon.png Homunculus Rune will still cause this effect, allowing a weapon to be used and quickly cancelled to instantly increase the attack speed of the weapon in the other slot.

Trivia[edit]

  • During the alpha of v2.1, this mutation was known as Fatal Cadence.
