Rotten Egg (demo)

Animation of the Rotten Egg.

Rotten Eggs are consumable ranged weapons obtained commonly from Goodie Bags, which are dropped during the Halloween season, and from shaking trees during that time. They explode on impact, with no chance of being retrieved.

Rotten Eggs are unique in that they are one of the only player-wielded weapons that can damage friendly NPCs by default (the Clothier and Guide Voodoo Dolls allow killing their respective NPCs, but are not wielded as weapons). They are a slow but effective way of killing NPCs.
