Distract Enemies
The Noisemaker creates noise wherever you throw it, attracting nearby enemies and diverting their attention. This is a useful strategy for clearing paths blocked by enemies without the need to eliminate them.
Set Enemies on Fire
One of the Noisemaker's upgrades gives it the ability to set enemies on fire when they are caught in the blast radius.
Alternatively, you can throw it near a flaming vase, which will attract nearby enemies and cause the vase to explode in the process.
Terrorize Enemies
The Noisemaker can also be modified to cause terror in enemies caught within the blast radius.
Terrorized enemies will run away from you for a brief moment, providing you with a chance to escape and creating ample distance between you and your pursuers.
Knock Back Enemies
If you find yourself surrounded by too many enemies, the Noisemaker's Shockwave upgrade will knock them back, providing you with an opportunity to break free.
How to Unlock Noisemaker
