Projectile spells that summon deadly sawblades.

Summon Omega Sawblade is a projectile spell which summons a gigantic spinning sawblade, roughly your height in diameter. Unlike all other disk spells, it's innately Piercing, has an extremely high longevity at about 8 seconds, and can dig through all terrain in its trajectory, including Extremely Dense Rock and Cursed Rock, making it a highly powerful projectile that deals damage every frame and is capable of tunneling through walls.

However, this comes at the major drawback of its aggressive homing towards you roughly a second after being cast, rather than towards the place it was cast like Giga Disc Projectile. Omega Sawblade will destroy anything in its path, including the extremely hard materials, such as Cursed Rock and Holy Mountain Brickwork. Trigger spells and Long-Distance Cast will not make any difference on its behavior.

The disk travels more slowly than the Giga Disk Projectile and therefore the Projectile Repulsion Field perk is enough to stop the self-homing effect of this spell, as long as you are stationary. It will suspend at a safe but uncomfortably close distance, but moving toward or away from it can get close enough to damage you.

As with all other Slice damage sources, it will cause creatures hit with it to bleed more.

Tips

This spell is extremely hazardous and difficult to use. Consider it suicidal unless you have some combination of Homing, Projectile Repulsion, Trigger spells, duration reduction, and/or path-forcing modifiers.
- Ping-Pong Path, Fly Upwards, and Fly Downwards have no effect on the disk's path.
- Orbiting Arc and Spiral Arc completely nullify and replace the disk's self-homing effect. Gravity and Anti-Gravity overpower the self-homing effect and cause the disk to come to rest at a safe distance above/below you (this is also ideal for upwards/downwards mining). Horizontal Path works exactly as you would expect.
- Chaotic Transmutation will disable the Boomerang effect.
- The Summon Hollow Egg caster unknown trick or Cessation will disable its boomerang effect.
- Homing modifiers and Homing Shots perk, though making the disk incredibly effective at clearing out entire screens of enemies, will still chase you after there are no more valid targets.
- Modifiers that statically affect its speed (Speed Up, Heavy Shot, Light Shot) will only affect the launching speed; they have no significant effect on its speed while homing on you at close range. Decelerating Shot will cause the blade to greatly slow down, making it easier to evade, but not stop it completely. Accelerating Shot will cause the disk to bounce around erratically as it tries to home in on you.
- Using Nolla will entirely prevent self-damage, though it will still damage enemies and destroy terrain; however, this comes at the disadvantage of significantly reducing its offensive power. Casting alongside Explosive Projectile and Explosive Detonator is also useful.
- Beware when using Quantum Split along with path-forcing modifiers, like Gravity, as only the main projectile will be affected by the modifiers and the copies will home toward you freely.
At high speeds, the blade will ricochet off surfaces instead of drilling through them.
The blades ignore the defenses of many of the bosses,^{[citation needed]} making for extremely quick miniboss kills. Take care though, that the blades are also liable to utterly destroy any inventory items the bosses might drop.
Be careful using this spell near Vaihdosmestari, as you may be swapped into your own sawblade — likely resulting in your swift death.
Do not use when having angry ghost perk, it is quite tricky to let the ghost switch to other projectile.
