Rating
Drill is a B-tier pierce ball. It travels straight through the field, penetrating every enemy in its path and dealing X% bonus damage to each. Unlike standard balls that stop on contact, Drill continues until it reaches the far wall.
The strength is line efficiency: one throw can hit every enemy lined up in its path simultaneously with the bonus damage. Against densely packed columns or rows, a single Drill covers the entire group. B-tier because the effect is simple — no debuffs, no CC, just pierce and bonus damage — but effective for what it does.
When to Pick
- Stages where enemies line up in columns the Drill can pierce through
- Pierce-focused builds that want consistent through-field damage
- As a versatile damage option in builds without a dedicated pierce ball
