How to craft it

=12Anvil

how it plays

Yoyos reward holding a position and letting the string do the damage, and this one leans into that harder than its crimson opposite. It stays out longer per throw and shoves enemies further away, so it holds a corridor or a doorway well. What you give up is a little punch per hit and a little distance on the string, which shows against anything that closes fast.

against the alternative

The Artery hits harder and reaches further, so it is the better tool when you are chasing something down rather than defending a spot. Either way both are placeholders until a longer string and a counterweight turn yoyos into something you can actually build a run around.

trivia

  • The name is the medical word for feeling vaguely unwell with no clear cause, which lines up with the sickly theme the corruption is going for.
