Ricochet Blades are unsocial ammo for the D1.3 Sector secondary weapon, introduced with the arguable Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles lawsuit past month. It wasn’t agelong aft the ammo made its mode in-game that the Ricochet Blades became a talking constituent for their unpredictable trajectory arsenic they bounce disconnected aggregate surfaces.
