Rat Bomb

Rat Bomb is a hazardous enemy spawned by the boss Radical Rat during its boss fight. These living explosives are deployed across the arena as additional threats that must be managed alongside the boss itself. Rat Bombs do not behave like standard enemies; they exist primarily as environmental hazards with a timer attached to them.

On its turn, a Rat Bomb detonates in an X-shaped blast pattern, firing damage in four diagonal lines that extend infinitely across the battlefield. This means any unit standing on a diagonal from the Rat Bomb when it goes off takes damage, regardless of distance. The explosion can also be triggered prematurely by hitting the Rat Bomb with fire damage, which causes immediate detonation. However, hitting it with non-fire damage disarms it entirely, neutralizing the threat without triggering the explosion.

During the Radical Rat boss fight, managing Rat Bombs is as important as dealing damage to the boss itself. Position your cats off the diagonals of any active Rat Bombs, and use non-fire attacks to disarm them before they detonate. Fire-based cats should avoid hitting Rat Bombs accidentally, as premature detonation can devastate your own team. When Radical Rat floods the arena with multiple Rat Bombs, prioritize disarming the ones closest to your cats' positions.
