Magnetic Grenade

The Magnetic Grenade is a grenade skill which draws in enemies and projectiles, dealing low damage over time.

Details

• Special Effects:
  • Throws an arcing projectile that explodes on contact with an enemy or a horizontal surface.
    • The projectile bounces off of a Shieldbearer's shield without detonating.
  • Upon contact, it begins to pull in enemies and bombs, and explodes after 3 seconds.
    • Inflicts 20 shock DPS for 4 seconds on all targets in the explosion range.
• Tags: Ranged, Explosive, Electric
• Legendary Version:
  • Forced Affix: Echo
    • "Explodes again after a brief moment."

Synergies

• The magnetic grenade also pulls in the eggs produced by Pollo Power, allowing for safer using and more consistent damage with the item.
  • Since Pollo Power locks the player out of using other items once active, it is to be used after having cast the magnetic grenade.
• The bombs produced by Explosive Decoy are also pulled in by the magnetic grenade.
• Due to magnetic grenade's ability to bring enemies closer together, even if they are airborne or on other platforms, it synergizes with the following items:
  • War Spear, which deals critical damage when striking multiple enemies at the same time.
  • Symmetrical Lance, which deals critical damage after having been used to kill two enemies in quick succession.
  • Tombstone, which dooms nearby enemies after having been used to kill an enemy with it's third attack.
  • Electric Whip, enemies struck by which will spread the shock status effect to nearby targets.
  • Gilded Yumi^TQatS, which deals critical damage if it bumps enemies into each other.
• The magnetic grenade can make it much easier to satisfy the conditions for the Networking mutation, which causes enemies struck by projectiles to share a portion of the damage they take.
