Blurst

From Axiom Verge Wiki
Revision as of 14:55, 20 September 2022 by Xhamon (talk | contribs) (Renaming. References. Minor formatting.)

Description

Blursts[1][2] (aka Slugs[3]) are small, green creatures that slowly slither back and forth. When Trace gets close, a swarm of 20 tiny pink flying insects bursts from it's mantle and pursues him rapidly, swarming all around him. This kills the Blurst.

Corrupted Form

When corrupted, the Blurst changes colors and appears glitched. When Trace approaches, its mantle bursts and the Blurst dies. The first time this happens, Health Node Fragment #15 is spawned. Every time afterward, a small amount of health spawns.

Exploits

Possible bug in game code: Sometimes when killed Blursts will spawn Health Node Fragments, (which otherwise do not respawn and are only attainable in specific areas of the map), although the conditions are unclear. The current assumption is that it happens if several corrupted Blursts burst at the same time (which might be related to the usage of the Address Bomb).
