Clinger - Traits & Tips
Clinger - Weapon Traits
Does Not Detonate Prior to Sticking
Clingers don't explode mid-air. They have to stick to a surface before it triggers its detonation time of 2.5 seconds. If the surface it sticks to is destroyed, it will fall until it sticks to another object or the fuse expires.
NO FRIENDLY FIRE!
Unlike other throwables, clingers do not have friendly fire! This makes it a viable weapon for suicide runs with your team.
Small Explosion Range
Clingers have a small explosion range & only damage buildings or players close to the clinger when it explodes, so it's better to throw it onto other players & use it in close range.
Low-Mid Rarity
Clingers are commonly found on the ground, treasure chests, and supply crates.
