The Spike Plant is a green colored weed with a singular long gnarly stem with branching green spikey balls. It is considered an Environmental Hazard.
Effect
When a creature attempts to move near it, it slows the creature, drains stamina, and damages it for as long as it is still near the weed.
When damaged, it explodes into exploding shrapnel, knocking close creatures back, and releasing 3 bursts of damaging spikes.
Tactical Information
- Helldivers should be careful when near spike plants, as the point-blank shrapnel explosion can easily launch and possibly kill Helldivers, even when equipped with heavy armor
- Additionally, even when driving FRVs, Helldivers should avoid running into spike plants, as the shrapnel can pop wheels, damage the FRV, and can injure Helldivers onboard.
