Affected By Action Speed

The souls explode on contact with an enemy and do not pierce, but their explosion is capable of hitting any nearby enemies as well, so the skill can still deal full damage to multiple enemies close to each other.
The souls spread out in a very erratic pattern from Lu's gloves, going directly up, down, and forward, and take a little bit of time before they start homing. The souls going directly up or down have a harder time reaching enemies because of this, though they will usually still deal full damage to a single target within visible range.
The souls' explosions will launch enemies slightly, and while the earlier rapid hits keep enemies in place, some of the trailing hits from the souls fired up/down may miss a given target due to this, especially when used at point-blank.
The Gigantic trait has no effect on the homing range of the souls, only increasing the area of the grenades and the explosion range of the souls.
This skill can be countered.
