Intrinsic
Insectoid Robot Grenades
This weapon's grenades are insectoid robots that chase targets and explode close to them. Consumes tougher combatants to create additional robots.
Overview
Insectoid Robot Grenades is the intrinsic perk on The Colony, an exotic Grenade Launcher that deals Void damage. Its grenades release insectoid robots that chase targets and explode close to them.
How it works
The robots pursue enemies and detonate near them. When a robot reaches a tougher combatant, that combatant is consumed to create additional robots, so the robots multiply in a long fight.
Companion trait
The Colony's other exotic trait, Serve the Colony, refills the magazine from reserves when the robots hit.
Where it rolls
The game data lists The Colony and Ergo Sum as the weapons that can roll this perk.
