The Gold Digger is a melee weapon which inflicts critical hits if the player has enough gold.

Details[]

  • Special Effects:
    • Changes to improved form while the player has more than 12000 gold.
      • Improved form has permanent critical damage, and a bigger third hit shockwave area.
    • Makes enemies drop [10 in base form, 15 in improved] gold per digger hit. Shockwave hits do not trigger this effect.
  • Breach Bonus: 0.5 / 0.5 / 0.75
    • Base Breach Damage: 120 (240) / 135 (270) / 135 (219)
    • Base Breach DPS: 177 (331)
  • Combo Duration: 2.2 seconds
    • First Hit: 0.5 (0.3 + 0.2 + 0)
    • Second Hit: 0.7 (0.5 + 0.2 + 0)
    • Third Hit: 1 (0.7 + 0.3 + 0)
  • Tags: HeavyWeapon
  • Legendary Version:
    • Forced Affix: Heavy Stun
      • "Stuns the victim."

Notes[]

  • The shockwave produced by the third hit in this weapon's combo is considered a ranged attack and is therefore affected by ranged mutations such as Point Blank.
  • When used with Porcupack, rolling through an enemy will still trigger the gold drop, making it a perfect match-up with Dagger of Profit.
  • In its improved form, works flawlessly with Instinct of the Master of Arms, since all hits are critical hits.
  • Blocking extensively with Greed Shield can help reach the 12000 gold needed for the improved form.

History[]

  • 2.8: Introduced.
  • 3.0: Added the Legendary Affix "Heavy Stun".
