Summary
The Evil Bubble is an event mob for the Aquatic Event. It is a bubble that traps and suffocates survivors. It floats upwards when it has caught a survivor. It is spawned by Papa Squid.
Background Story
The legend of the one known as the Tinpot Noob may have ended as abruptly as he took to the seas, using some boat made of logs and strings once used by a group of survivors during a desperate escape plan on some old harbor, but that did not mean he died. They noticed the disappearance of the logs when it were far too late, as he'd already rode off into the ocean, using his oddly-well-preserved cooking utensil as a means of collecting food from the ocean, which seemed to be attracted by the light shone off the metal.
Tales of a pot made entirely of Gold in his honor had eventually reached his ears by means impossible to know for sure, and due to their relative scarcity (alongside the fact he had almost nowhere else to go in the middle of the ocean), he assumed that it lay at the bottom of the ocean, hidden somewhere along the sand.
So he jumped in, not bothering to question why he could mysteriously breathe underwater.
Meanwhile, Papa Squid knew that the survivors would mercilessly tear him apart and steal his chest if he didn't do anything about it. Before the fight started, the Colossal Squid was contemplating how to defeat them with what he had...
When suddenly it spotted a normally well-known survivor with a Tinpot on its head at the ocean floor, not like the squid would know the stories about him anyways, who was seemingly searching for something. What that something could've possibly been was a mystery, though definitely unrelated to the treasure that the cephalopod so desperately guarded, since he just looked right past it shortly after seeing it.
It was then this squid realized something: The mystical aura around him made water breathable for those with lungs instead of gills, so he thought about how that worked. Why didn't it happen elsewhere?
Did the survivors grow gills? No, it couldn't be that. They would die outside of water then.
Did they seemingly evolve to tolerate it? No, they wouldn't need the Jetski then.
He kept thinking of different ways the survivors could live underwater, but then thought of something: if the water is breathable by survivors nearby him, what does air do nearby?
So he conjured a large bubble, trapped the survivor in it and, quite frankly, they were suffocated inside the bubble within mere seconds, the bubble popping after a small amount of time causing them to land directly in front of the squid, now finally still after all those years of being thought of as dead.
With almost zero thought and even less remorse for what he has just done, Papa Squid had then realized that his aura also made the air around him act quite the opposite as to what it originally does, getting transformed into a deadly gas capable of destroying lungs with a speed comparable to electricity, and decided to use that fact against the survivors.
Sadly, what he didn't notice is that the bullets the survivors used against anything that stands in their way were relatively sharp.
Tips
- The Evil Bubbles rapidly damage those inside them. Think of them as a stronger Leaper that could float around.
- Try to shoot the Evil Bubbles the moment they spawn to prevent anymore deaths.
- The RPG can be quite useful to use when they spawn as it will damage all Evil Bubbles near the rocket.
- If somebody is trapped inside a bubble, shoot it before the Evil Bubbles kills them.
- Use your jetpack or mount to avoid these.
Trivia
- The Evil Bubble is quiet literally just a sphere using the forcefield material.
- It uses the default size and Institutional white as its color.
