Bebop Abilities and Overview
Bebop is a clunky combo machine that can hook you from far away. Not only is Bebop exceptional as a ganker, but you can also execute some great combos to quickly eliminate any enemy unfortunate enough to be next to you.
Abilities
Exploding Uppercut
- Description: Deal Light Melee damage to nearby units and send them flying back, causing area damage where they land. Does not damage allies.
- Cooldown: 21s
- Uppercut Damage: 0
- Area Damage: 80 (Spirit Power Scaling x 0.5)
- Landing Radius: 14m
- T1: -10.5s Cooldown
- T2: On Uppercut enemy Hero, gain fast spin up time, 2x range and +60% weapon damage for 12s
- T5: On Uppercut enemy Hero, set Hook cooldown to 0 and instantly +100% bullets to your current clip
- Uppercuts all enemies within around 2-3m of Bebop.
- Uppercutted enemies cannot receive the area damage.
- Trajectory is affected by Bebop facing angle, i.e. facing down reduces airtime and facing upward increases airtime.
Sticky Bomb
- Description: Attach a Sticky Bomb to a nearby target that deals explosive damage after a short fuse time. Gain +2.5% bomb damage for every enemy hero hit.
- Radius: 12m
- Range: 6m
- Cooldown: 19s
- Damage: 120 (Spirit Power Scaling x 0.9)
- Fuse Time: 3s
- T1: -7.5s Cooldown
- T2: +80 Damage
- T5: On Attach, disarms the target for 3.5 seconds.
- Damage gain per hero hit is permanent for the rest of the game.
- The percentage damage increase is applied to the total damage of the bomb (base damage + upgrade damage increase + damage from Spirit scaling).
For example: A Bebop has the "+80 Damage" upgrade learned, 6 total bomb stacks (+15% damage), and has 33 total Spirit. His bomb will do (120 [base damage] + 80 [upgrade damage] + 33*0.9 [damage from spirit scaling]) = 264.16 damage, before any Spirit Resistance reductions.
