- 自動回彈仙人掌平時用槓桿式步槍受傷才拿左輪出來交替著用，自動回彈速度快到跟本打不完子彈。讓仙人掌去牽制地面步隊，自已去抓掉空中單位生存能力很不錯，總傷害也常排名前面。缺點是救助隊友的能力比較差，常常變成只能自已一個人上火車。+4

In-game preview
How it playsA dancing cactus that enemies cannot resist following. Decoyo lures nearby enemies toward it before detonating - simple in concept, surprisingly effective in practice when you need the room to breathe or a group of enemies cleared from an objective. Drop it behind an enemy group to pull their attention away from you or a teammate. The lure effect is most useful in chaotic encounters where redirecting even a few enemies creates a meaningful window. Combine with Contagion or Surcharge at the Decoyo position for bonus burst on the gathered targets.
Strategy
Strengths
- Redirects enemy attention without requiring your own positioning
- Detonation hits all lured enemies at once
- Useful as a flanking distraction in co-op
Weaknesses
- Long cooldown for what is essentially a single diversion
- Enemies that have already committed to an attack may not respond to the lure
