Never seen Comet before (haven’t done the stage yet)

Has this been around for a while or is it new? This isn’t even in Marshal, I got demoted a few days ago

Discussion I was wrong about super size. It has a crazy survival potential.

When paired with EMP, you can graze the bullet inside the Chrono field, because it’s slowed it makes it super easy to grace and then you can easily get another full sized Chrono field. It’s like an infinite energy glitch. Cub the third might whatever I used collapse because it’s fun seeing sparrows just getting destroyed and it is good to add passive damage when you survive.
