Gesture of the Drowned

The Gesture of the Drowned is an unlockable Lunar item in Risk of Rain 2.

Completing The Demons And The Crabs Challenge unlocks this item.

This item, like all other Lunar items, has a powerful effect and a drawback. This item cuts the cooldowns of Equipment in half, but also activates them as soon as they are ready. The item has to be able to fire, however, so the Royal Capacitor won't fire until an enemy is spotted.

The Gesture also randomly activates the item ''multiple times at once. ''This is most apparent when The Back-Up summons dozens of drones in one activation.

Since MUL-T's retooled item is not activatable, charges can be saved by not retooling until you want to use it. With Fuel Cells, this can stock up multiple charge, ready to be unleashed at once.

Trivia

 * This item appears to be a fossilized ammonite, a once abundant but now extinct marine mollusc. Fossils of ammonites are common, and are found all over the world.
