The Sentient Meat Hook is an item in Risk of Rain 2.

When the holder damages an enemy, there is a 20% chance (+20% per stack) that a burst of hooks will shoot out from that enemy, pulling in up to 10 other enemies (+5 per stack) within 30m and dealing 100% total damage to each.

Each hook has a proc coefficient of 0.33.

This item stacks hyperbolically in the chance to fire hooks, and linearly in the number of hooked enemies.

Math[]

    , this item is useful for gathering up many enemies into one spot to strike them all with area-of-effect items or abilities.
  • Because a large number of enemies are hooked at once, it is possible for just a single activation of the Sentient Meat Hook to activate other total damage items easily, even though its own proc coefficient is low.
  • Due to the hyperbolic stacking, a single Sentient Meat Hook will activate more frequently when stacked with 57 Leaf Clover 57 Leaf CloversBgLegendary57 Leaf Clover57 Leaf Clover

    • To get an even higher chance, you can get more meat hooks along with clovers.

Lore[]

"When artificial intelligence became more commonplace, many companies jumped on the trend for "smart" products. This included smart doors, lights, coffee makers, lawnmowers, vacuum cleaners, bedding, kitchen knife sets, and other home goods. After a series of gruesome lawsuits stemming from hacked smart appliances, most products soon went back to their more traditional, analog lines."
