Effects
10 Base Damage

Thorned Revenger is a Repro-type augment. When obtained, it fires a circle of 8 projectiles around the user whenever their health changes, be it through taking damage or healing. The projectiles deal 10 damage each and can pierce enemies, but not walls. An attack cannot be triggered more than once every 0.4 seconds. This cooldown is not affected by attack speed boosts. When an enemy is hit multiple times by the same projectile or by more than 1 projectile from the same attack, each hit after the first will only deal 0.125x damage.

Picking up more than one Thorned Revenger will raise its level by 1, increasing the base damage dealt by each projectile by 5. With the Zookeeper's Set Bonus active, a circle of 16 projectiles will be fired when an attack is triggered instead of 8.

Interactions and Synergies

• With Dracopent's Pride or Owlhawk's Reign, Thorned Revenger will fire whenever the player kills an enemy with a Primary or Power attack respectively, even if the player is at full health.
• The damage dealt by Thorned Revenger is not affected by Counterstrike, Kinetic Destructor, or Rage Circuit.
• Thorned Revenger as well as all other attacking Repros only receive half the normal benefit of non-multiplicative global damage boosts such as Shield Bash.

Trivia

• Thorned Revenger will also fire immediately upon pickup.
• Thorned Revenger's appearance is based on the enemy Rolly.
