Open it in the interactive matrixRate how fun it is
A-TIER Immobile Chaos Cannon
Massive Chaos Bolt visual payoff penalized heavily by forced stationary turret casting.
Previously rated C on this site, before the October 2026 community research.
How it feels
Firing dual Chaos Bolts with Havoc active is visually majestic. However, high dungeon mobility demands hurt: having to move mid-cast completely breaks your flow.
Peak moment
Havoc on priority target -> double Chaos Bolt with backdraft launching twin green dragons of fire.
The clunk
Extreme turret immobility. Swirl-heavy dungeon encounters make hard-casting feel punishing.
What players say
