Understand Catapult
Useful when…
- Steer Grendel in Pulverize toward an aimed direction.
- Slow down during Pulverize by crouching.
Pulverize movement
Catapult’s Pulverize augment launches Grendel in the aim direction, and crouching slows him down. The listed Energy cost is 15 at rank 0, 7.5 at rank 2, and 5 at rank 3; the launch input is not specified.
Mod fit and rank
Catapult is a Rare Grendel augment for the Exilus slot. It has Zenurik polarity, base drain 6, and maximum rank 3. Ranking it lowers the listed Energy cost from 15 at rank 0 to 5 at rank 3. Mod fusion requires Endo and Credits, with the listed step costs increasing at higher ranks.
Other Grendel augment effects
Hearty Nourishment augments Nourish to clear status effects and provide status immunity for each victim in Grendel’s stomach. Gastro augments Regurgitate so regurgitated enemies bounce up to three times and create gas clouds. Gastroparesis adds Extra Gas Damage to primary and secondary weapons for each enemy consumed.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Uses an Exilus slot for Pulverize movement control.
- The listed Energy cost falls with rank, while mod fusion costs rise at higher ranks.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming Catapult changes Pulverize damage or duration; its listed effect covers launch direction, slowing, and Energy cost.
