Basic attack

Blasts 5 pellets in a cone at the weakest enemy in range: each hits the first enemy in its way and tears 2.4% of its max health (0.24% on bosses), so a close one takes them all. Standing still, you keep shooting it until it falls.

Skills

Chests and cleared waves bring skills and their levels. Tap a skill to cast it, or drag to aim; turn on Auto and they cast themselves.
