Moons

Unlocked after reaching Level 19

Before we had the randomness of Spaz, Bouncy Ball and Clover, we first experienced it from this weapon that surprised us with its weird movement seconds after being shot. And that's what this weapon is all about!

Moons[]

W Moons Icon
Moons
Shoots 5 Moons that starts to fly like a normal shot, before starting to fly around with no specific flight pattern until it leaves the map or hits the ground. It deals damage depending on the distance traveled.

Moons have amazing terrain destruction capabilities, and can even destroy smaller hills completely, with the Orbitals being even better at this. This is why they are great to hit someone standing behind a weak wall.

You do the most damage by firing directly at someone with the most power possible on longer distances since the moons' magic dance happens only after a couple of seconds in the air and once it does it kills your damage. If you do this, anticipate the terrain reduction and shoot slightly beneath the target.

On close ranges just casually let the moons drop on someone in a way that makes sure all the projectiles hit even when creating the big hole that follows. While the damage scales with distance this is usually the best way to deal damage since all your projectiles will actually hit.
