Listed weapon projectiles gain up to 3 bounces.
Waltz of Pearls (XI) is one of the Arcanas in Vampire Survivors. It is unlocked by reaching Level 50 with Imelda.
When this Arcana is active, the following weapons' projectiles gain up to three bounces:
Magic Wand and Holy Wand- Fire Wand and Hellfire
- Cross and Heaven Sword
- Carréllo
- Hats
- Sonic Bloom and Wave Beam
- Gale Force and Pneuma Tempestas
- Rock Riot and Gemma Torpor
Magic Wand, Holy Wand, Fire Wand and Sonic Bloom can hit 3 more targets per shot, which effectively increases their crowd damage output.
Instead of bouncing on enemies three times before using up their own pierce like other weapons, Hellfire and Wave Beam bounce off the edges of the screen once, Cross and Heaven Sword twice, and Carréllo three more times. They already have infinite pierce and benefit more from staying on screen longer.
On the other hand, Rock Riot, Gemma Torpor, Gale Force and Pneuma Tempestas gets less benefit from this arcana, as they already have high speed and piercing: Rock Riot and Gale Force's traveling path can be changed, while Pneuma Tempestas just keeps how it goes.
Carrie Fernandez starts with this arcana.
Trivia[]
- The name of this Arcana is a reference to the song "Dance of Pales/Waltz of Pearls", which is the theme song to Olrox's Quarters from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.
- Waltz of Pearls is very similar to Iron Blue Will with how both Arcanas give weapons extra bounces, but the two Arcanas differ mainly by applying to different weapon sets.
- Carréllo is affected by both Arcanas.
