How to Use Pipe Bombs

Pipe Bomb - 1.jpg
Pipebombs are unique tools that are only available to Abby. When using a Pipe Bomb, it creates a massive explosion, dealing damage to anyone nearby after a short delay. Crafting a Pipe Bomb requires more materials than the other tools you can make, which makes them a bit more difficult to craft. However, crafting a Pipe Bomb automatically gives you two of them, which makes up for the extra materials it needs.

It is recommended that you craft and use pipe bombs whenever possible, as it is your main tool for clearing multiple enemies (especially since Abby doesn't have access to Molotovs.)

Pipe Bombs can be used in different ways because of their ability to bounce off walls and detonate in areas you wouldn't normally reach, thanks to the slight delay after throwing them. Because of this, you can use Pipe Bombs both offensively and defensively, unlike the other tools that explode immediately on contact.
