Rainbow Orb

From Noita Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Rainbow Orb is a unique projectile, as it deals damage of a random damage type. This can make it effective against all types of enemies, even those immune to projectile damage. In addition, a modifier version, Prismatic grants a projectile 5 damage of a random Damage Type.

Nearly all damage types are possible. Possible damage types are: Projectile, Slice, Melee, Fire, Curse, Drill, Electricity, Explosion, Ice, Toxic.

Some of these damage types are rarely seen, such as Fire and Toxic, which are normally given by their respective status effects.


Both the orb and modifier give off extra particle effects depending on what damage type they selected.

Tips

The tips here go for both the projectile and the modifier

  • These don't work well for enemies with many resistances/immunities, such as Torjuntalaite, as it will often do next to no damage or be blocked entirely. However it is good for enemies who block common damage types, such as those in the Power Plant.
  • This is a somewhat good source of Curse damage, as that is incredibly powerful. No enemy resists curse damage at all.
  • The rainbow orb projectile is quite mana hungry, so the modifier version may be more favourable in most cases, but it is significantly more expensive then Damage Plus so that should be used instead if just projectile damage is enough.
