| Category | Laser / CC |
| Tier | A |
Rating
Laser Beam is an A-tier laser-and-blind ball. On every hit, it fires a laser beam that both damages enemies struck and applies a blindness debuff (reducing their accuracy) for X seconds.
The combination of damage and defensive CC in one effect is Laser Beam's core value. Blinded enemies miss more often, which translates directly into less incoming damage for the duration. Against high-damage enemies or bosses, maintaining blindness significantly reduces risk.
Compared to Flash (global blind via screen-wide pulse), Laser Beam provides consistent per-hit blindness on specific targets with additional laser damage — a more controlled application.
When to Pick
- Builds that want reliable per-hit blindness for defensive damage reduction
- Stages with high-damage enemies that are threatening; blind reduces their effective DPS
- Complement to Flash's global blind for consistent CC coverage throughout rounds
- Builds wanting both damage and CC utility in one ball slot
Best Characters
| Character | Synergy | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Defensive survival builds | S | On-hit blind reduces all incoming damage every time it procs |
| Combo builds | A | Blind creates a safer window for follow-up attacks |
| Multi-hit builds | A | More hits = more blind procs = near-constant enemy accuracy reduction |
Recommended Passives
| Passive | Synergy |
|---|---|
| Blind duration up | Extends each blind window for more incoming damage reduction |
| Laser damage up | More damage per beam |
| Blind damage amplification | Blinded enemies take more damage from other sources |
| Light damage up | Light-line bonus applies to laser damage |
| Pierce enhancement | Beam extends further, applying blind to more enemies per throw |
Tips
- Target high-damage threats — apply blind to the most dangerous enemies to neutralize their incoming DPS
- Maintain blind on bosses — bosses kept blinded deal significantly less damage; prioritize boss blind uptime
- Pair with Flash — Flash for global blind setup + Laser Beam for sustained per-hit blind maintenance between Flash procs
- Use as defensive utility — even low-damage enemies distract and waste time; blind reduces that interference
TL;DR
Laser Beam fires a blinding laser on hit, dealing damage and reducing enemy accuracy for X seconds. A-tier defensive utility ball. Consistently applied blind is especially valuable against high-DPS enemies and bosses.
