The signature weapon of Alistair, the Thunderbolt. Upon his second descent into the Gungeon, the Thunderbolt famously remarked, "Lightning won't strike here again." He wasn't wrong.

Shock Rounds is a passive item.

Effects

  • Creates beams of electricity between fired bullets.

Notes

  • Synergy Alistair's Ladder - If the player has Thunderclap, it fires two parallel balls of lightning with every shot.
  • Synergy Battery Powered - If the player has Shock Rifle, it automatically regenerates ammo over time.
  • Synergy Chain Lightning - If the player has Shadow Bullets, the range that Shock Bullets can connect bullets is increased, and lightning can connect to enemy bullets.
  • Synergy Future Gangster - If the player has Thompson Sub-Machinegun, it fires lasers.
  • Synergy Lotus Bloom - If the player has Laser Lotus, its magazine size increases to 32, its maximum ammo increases to 250, its fire rate greatly increases, and it deals half damage.
  • Synergy Neo Tech, Yo - If the player has Mutation, its beams turn blue, it creates electrified water, and it grants electricity immunity while held.
  • Synergy Pistol Machine - If the player has Machine Pistol, its shots pierce.
  • Synergy Wave Beam - If the player has Heroine, enables Wave Beam mode on Heroine, which fires two wavy projectiles connected by electricity when uncharged, and a standard large Heroine shot when charged. Modes can be switched by reloading Heroine with a full magazine.
  • The beams of electricity can be used to damage the Chicken Flute chicken.

Trivia

  • The name "Alistair, the Thunderbolt" is likely a reference to the Capcom games Devil May Cry and Viewtiful Joe. In both games, the name was ascribed to a character or weapon which had control over lightning.
  • The sprite of the item resembles a Tazie, as opposed to Bouncy Bullets, which resemble Rubber Kin.
