Shattering Justice

Shattering Justice is a returning item from Risk of Rain 1.

Upon hitting an enemy 5 times, that enemy receives the "Pulverized" debuff for 8 seconds (+8 per stack). This debuff subtracts 60 from the recipient's Armor and does not stack. Since most enemies don't have any or have very little armor, this item usually sets their defense to a negative value.

This item can be seen as a mostly consistent damage buff for almost all characters, as the way the game calculates damage through armor also accounts for negative armor and increases your damage accordingly. This item does not do much for Loader, unfortunately, due to her focus on her utility skill and slow attack speed, so if you are playing as her in Multiplayer you should save this item for more attack speed focused survivors. Only one person needs the item for the entire team to gain the benefit from it anyway.
