Bandit

Bandit is a playable character in Risk of Rain 2.

Tips

 * Since Smoke Bomb moves Bandit upward while in the air, it can effectively be used as an extra jump to increase your mobility or to prevent fall damage.
 * Use Smoke Bomb to make the most use out of Bandit's Back Stab passive, allowing you to reposition behind enemies while they're distracted.
 * Due to Burst's multiple projectiles, items like Shatterspleen and Tri-Tip Dagger can be used for large debuff damage.
 * Both Serrated Dagger and Serrated Shiv reset Bandit's aerial momentum, which can be used to prevent fall damage.
 * Rapid-firing Blast drastically increases the spread of the rifle. Pacing shots is necessary for hitting targets at long range.
 * When Bandit fires a shot or uses Lights Out while airborne and under the effects of Smoke Bomb, he gains an additional mid-air jump.

Trivia

 * Bandit's "Chilly" skin is a reference to Ibzan - the main antagonist of Hopoo's other game, DEADBOLT. The skin bears a close resemblance to him, the name refers to the constant cold that skeletons feel, the shotgun model is replaced with a Semi-Auto Shotgun and the knives are replaced with kitchen knives.
 * Before the Anniversary update, Bandit was in the game's files as an unused survivor. Notably he was the most complete unused survivor.
