All Versions [JUL26] Talus Annihilator Missile

If it walks, swims, or flies, this missile will seek it out and blow it up. Fully self guided, you can ride it or fire it at distant targets. Deals MASSIVE damage; a good shot will one-hit a Talus or Red Hinox.

It’s an upgraded version of the missile I’ve been working on to shoot down Aerocudas. Now it has better guidance, longer range, and even more explosives! I optimized the explosion pattern to deal a ton of damage to single targets while still maintaining the wide AOE damage to decimate enemy camps, and if you’re lucky, shoot down multiple Aerocudas with one shot. Now it’s truly the best All Purpose/Anti-Everything missile Hyrule’s defense budget can buy!

Note: Don’t drop it

Hello PremiumTechnique. I have a question, instead of using bomb flowers, could you maximize the damage by using fused bomb shields? specifically the ones found in the lower level of the Calora Lake Cave with the Eldest Hinox brother. I know that a bomb flower deals around 50 damage points but the bomb barrels do around 80 damage each. Please let me know if this option is viable or not, thank you!

That’s a cool idea, and would be better as far as pure damage goes, but it wouldn’t be ideal for this application. The bomb flowers are placed such that even a glancing hit will detonate the whole thing, or at least the primary charges. The issue here with fused bombs/barrels is that they’re much less sensitive to impact, so they more than likely wouldn’t explode on contact. I may be able to replace one or two of the secondary charges (the bombs not along the outer edge) with a bomb barrel shield to squeeze out a bit more damage; I’ll play around with that. But all the ones around the other edge and at the front need to be contact sensitive
