Notes

  • This weapon works similarly to the Shovel IconShovel. However, unlike the Shovel, it can deflect all projectiles, rather than just bombs.
  • This weapon is also able to reflect the player’s own bombs and other thrown projectiles, these will not activate its critical condition, however.
  • The bombs dropped from the Parting Gift Mutation IconParting Gift can activate the critical ability.

Trivia
