In PEAK, the Blowgun acts as a single-use tactical gadget that applies the Lethargic status effect. Primarily used for mischief, it can temporarily disable enemies—or allies—with comedic or strategic value.
Blowgun Locations
- Exclusively found as a random drop during gameplay
- Check supply crates, hidden stashes, or high-risk reward zones
- More likely to appear in elevated or difficult-to-reach areas
Key Mechanics
- Instant Application: Inflicts Lethargic immediately on hit
- Stamina Dependency: Can incapacitate players with low stamina
- Disposable: Vanish after a single use
- Stealthy Usage: No visual or auditory cue before firing
While ideal for pranking teammates, it’s particularly effective for creating unintentional comedy—like pushing someone off a ledge mid-action.
Strategic Utility Against the Scoutmaster
The Blowgun shines as a emergency tool when facing the relentless Scoutmaster:
- Stun Mechanic: Briefly interrupts his attacks
- Team Escape: Grants a few seconds for regrouping
- Zero Damage: Prioritizes evasion over offense
The Scoutmaster appears when rushing the summit solo or using the Scoutmaster’s Bugle. A well-timed Blowgun shot can prevent instant knockout from his aggressive tackles.
