Mina the Hollower sidearms
15 entriesSidearms are Joule-powered tools you slot alongside your main weapon — think bombs, hooks, lanterns, and stranger things. Use Joule (the game's ammo currency) to fire them, recover by attacking foes.
Each sidearm changes what your build can do: traversal, crowd control, stagger setups. Pair carefully with your weapon's tempo and your trinket loadout.
