Notes

edit
  • Vortex Web can be cast at a target enemy player with alt-cast (RMB), pulling other enemies towards them.
  • The Vortex Web model is an octopus that pulls players with its arms.
  • Movement Silence sets a player's Gravity Scale to 120% (makes them heavier), regardless of their base gravity. This especially affects   Celeste and   Ivy, who have innate gravity reduction.
  • Movement Silence removes the knockback movement from   Shiv's alt-fire.
