Other Aspects of this Weapon
Aspect of Medea
Attack no longer throws skulls — it loads them into Melinoë herself. Dashing into an enemy then detonates every loaded skull at once. This transforms the weapon from a ranged lobber into a melee burst tool, and it is one of the highest damage ceilings in the game.
Aspect of Persephone
Damage dealt fills a Glory gauge. Once full, your Omega Special gains brief invulnerability and a large damage bonus. Rewards building into one enormous hit rather than steady output.
