Location[]

The blueprint for the Boomerang is located in High Peak Castle, next to the exit to the Throne Room. It is locked behind a door that requires the 3rd Castle Key to enter. For this the player must defeat all the Elites found in the three colored rooms throughout the level. Additionally, the player must have the Ram Rune and the Spider Rune, the Homunculus Rune, or a War Javelin to reach the blueprint.

Notes[]

  • Boomerang's ammo is affected by the mutation Ammo.
  • This weapon used to be unable to pierce enemies, but it will inflict critical damage when returning to the player.
