How it plays

Ground Drift plants grenades on the ground with a 6x6 AoE burst radius. Damage is calculated when a target steps on the mine, not when you plant it.

Mechanics:

  • Card effects (Thanatos, Hydra, Golden Ring) apply to grenade damage and trigger on detonation.
  • Magnetic Earth negates both activation and damage.
  • Pneuma blocks the damage but still triggers the explosion.
  • Cast on a hidden target, the grenade explodes for no damage.
  • Up to 25 grenades on screen at once; they can be planted under monsters or players.
  • Grenades survive your death and still trigger when walked over, but deal no damage.

Skills used alongside it: Ground Drift, Increasing Accuracy, Triple Action, Flip the Coin, Cloaking (via the Eremes Guile card), and Charge Attack (from Gunslinger Lord Knight Ring of the Divine).
