Sawmerang

The  is a returning equipment in Risk of Rain 2.

When activated, it shoots three saw blades in a fan that travel a set distance before returning to the player, each dealing 400% damage with a proc coefficient or 1.0 and inflicting. The initial shot and the return trip count as separate attacks, allowing each blade to hit twice. Additionally, after the initial strike, each saw blade deals rapid damage with a proc coefficient of 0.2 and inflicts Bleed each tick.

Tips

 * Using this equipment to hit enemies at close range is risky but rewarding, as it is likely that all 3 saw blades will hit.
 * Keep in mind that the saw blades do not travel through terrain, and each will immediately return upon striking terrain.
 * This can be used to return the saw blades early in order to get the second hit for each blade faster, although this requires some setup.
 * This also means that it's possible to get a saw blade stuck on its return trip, if the player moves such that there is geometry between them and the saw blade before it returns. When this happens, the stuck saw blade will continuously hurt any enemies near it.
