Void Barnacles behave very similarly to, emerging out of any terrain, including walls and ceilings, where they will remain as immobile turret-like creatures.

Any single instance of damage that deals more than 50% of the Void Barnacle's total health will stun it and interrupt its attacks.

Primary: Ink Shot
The Void Barnacle shrinks itself for 1 second (scales with attack speed) before firing an ink-like projectile that moves at 30m/s and homes in on its target. Upon impact or after 3 seconds, it explodes dealing 300% damage with a proc coefficient of 1.0 in a radius of 2m with no falloff. This attack has an end lag of 1.2 seconds which also scales with attack speed

This skill has no cooldown and its firing rate is only limited by charging and end lag delays.

Behaviors

 * 1) Use primary: the Void Barnacle must be within 80m from its target and have line of sight. This behavior is active for 1 second and the skill is not necessary to be off cooldown, but it will be used as and when it is available. The Void Barnacle will refresh its target at the end of this behavior.
 * 2) Search for target: no requirements. The Void Barnacle will refresh its target at the end of this behavior.

Trivia

 * The back of a Void Barnacle's "head" resembles a Cell Vent from the.
