Tips and Details

• Hornet Sting's initial hit will only damage the first enemy it comes in contact with but deals splash damage to all enemies within the explosion.
• With practice, Hornet Sting can be used to catch people into a combo and be used as a decent finisher.
• Hornet Sting's explosion hitbox lasts much longer than the animation indicates.
