How to Survive Bang (Skull)
The Bang is a walking bomb that spawns in groups of three and wanders aimlessly. It often separates from its group, making it seem harmless—until it spots a player or takes damage, which ignites its fuse and sends it charging at the nearest target.
What Makes It Dangerous?
Once ignited, its fuse cannot be put out.
Explodes instantly if close enough, dealing high damage even at a distance.
Has a hidden fuse timer (~10 seconds) before a final warning where it lets out a quiet yell before detonating.
How to Avoid It
Spread out from teammates—a single Bang can wipe an entire group if you’re too close together.
Keep your distance once its fuse is lit—it only takes one explosion to end your run.
If you can’t escape, find cover—walls can reduce the blast damage.
How to Fight It
Pick it up and throw it—they act like living grenades, but break free after about three seconds.
Use it against enemies—if timed right, Bangs can damage or kill other threats.
Dispose of them safely—throwing them into a well, lava, or acid ensures they don’t come back.
Final Tip
The Bang is more useful than dangerous if handled correctly. Stay spread out, use its explosion to your advantage, and if all else fails, throw it somewhere it won’t come back.
