Grappling Hook



The Grappling Hook is an item that fires a long chain that allows players to latch and sling themselves to surfaces at range. Jumping or re-using the Grappling Hook will disengage the player from a latched surface. It is crafted from a Hook and three Iron Chains, and can be bought from the Goblin Tinkerer for. Other craftable hooks are summarized here: Hooks.

Pressing the Grapple hotkey (default: E) will activate the Grappling Hook. The Hook need only be in the player's inventory for the Grapple hotkey to function, and does not need to be in the hotbar. In the iOS game, dragging quickly from the player outwards will cast the projectile in that direction (again, the Grappling Hook does not need to be in the hotbar).

The Grappling Hook aids climbing and construction, and can be essential as the first tool available that would allow a player to explore Chasms without getting trapped at the bottom.

Tips

 * Latching a surface with the Grappling Hook resets fall distance, even if that surface is directly below the character. This can be used to prevent fall damage.
 * Can be used as an anchor (shot directly into the ground below the player) when fighting enemies, to prevent knockback.
 * Grappling the ground and jumping before the chain fully reels in will launch you forward, similar to grappling a door. This can be used with the Hermes/Spectre Boots to reach max speed almost instantly.

Trivia

 * The tooltip is a quote from the Mortal Kombat character, Scorpion, when he fires a grappling hook at opponents and drags them over to him.

Recipe

 * As before the 1.2 update
