Usage summary

  • 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.
