Returns to thrower

After a throw, the disc flies back like a boomerang. You do not need to pick it up from the ground to reuse it — wait for the return.

Ricochet on hard surfaces

Hitting hard blocks extends airtime and can increase speed. Use walls and floors for trick-shot angle extensions beyond the base short range.

Multi-target pierce

Lined-up enemies can all take hits along the same trajectory. The disc continues through entities instead of stopping on the first contact.

Either-hand throw

Hold and throw from main hand or off-hand. Discs thrown from the off-hand return to the off-hand — unlike Loyalty tridents.

No gravity arc

Official preview notes describe angled throws without a gravity drop, making flat hallway and vertical wall shots more predictable.

FAQ

What is Throwing Disc damage?

Exact HP values are not published yet. Track snapshots after First Drop 2027 testing begins; this page will update damage, durability, and enchant tables when numbers land.

Does ricochet increase damage?

Developers highlighted longer airtime and higher travel speed after ricochets. Whether damage scales with speed is unconfirmed until snapshot data.
