Gold-plated Bomb

YMCA

The Gold-plated Bomb is a item in Risk of Rain that trades half of your current gold for a bomb that will deal an amount of damage equivalent to the amount of gold you've spent.

Tactics

 * If you have 10,000 or more gold, using this item and hitting an enemy will unlock the "Deal 5000 or more damage" achievement.


 * Upon detonation, a fraction of the gold spent will drop and be automatically picked up again, though not nearly as much as was used.

Item Synergies

 * Having a couple of Smart Shoppers and Life Savings can increase the damage of this bomb without worrying spending money on other purchasable items.
