Witherhoard

Fires a Taken projectile that creates a Blighted Pool in a 4.5 meter radius for 4.5 seconds upon impact with the ground. Enemies within the pool take damage every 0.3 seconds.

This weapon is weighted for vertical recoil. • Greatly controls recoil • Increases stability • Increases handling speed

This weapon's explosives are more effective. • Slightly increases blast radius • Decreases stability

Direct Hits apply 'Blighted' to the target, dealing twice as much tick damage as Blighted Pools at half the rate for 9.5 seconds. Killing Blighted enemies causes them to drop a Blighted Pool. Targets can only take damage from a single instance of Blighted at a time. Enemies that are Blighted can take simultaneous damage from a Blighted Pool, and also take 25% increased damage from Malfeasance and Wish-Ender. Blighted targets are STILL NOT CONSIDERED "TAKEN COMBATANTS".

This weapon has a versatile dual-purpose stock. • Slightly increases stability • Slightly increases handling speed
