The Pandemic is a legendary Area of Effect grenade mod manufactured by Vladof. Pandemic is obtained randomly from any suitable loot source, but has an increased chance to drop from Mortar located in Sawtooth Cauldron.

Special Grenade Effects

Spread the sickness. – Always corrosive. After the grenade's initial explosion, three more homing grenades are spawned. The grenades spawned will home in on enemies and touch them, transferring corrosive damage and then seek out another target. This will continue until the grenades disappear.

Usage & Description

The Pandemic is most useful when thrown into mobs of lesser units that have vulnerability to corrosive damage. Such situations are common in areas heavily populated by Hyperion units, knights, and most kinds of skeletons.

Every time an infectious child grenade transmits corrosive damage-over-time to a new enemy, the grenade makes a distinct noise like when firing a rocket launcher.

Trivia

  • The mandatory parts for the Pandemic include a corrosive accessory and a modified area effect payload called "Exterminator" (see the in-right displayed info card). The Storm Front and the Fire Bee, two other Vladof-manufactured legendary area-of-effect grenades, share this part with the Pandemic, but the differences among the three are made by their Item_Balance setting.
  • The definition of pandemic is a mortal illness that spreads over a large area and/or population.
