Mechanics
Korrigan’s Gumballs
Korrigan’s Gumballs are bewitched sweets sold by dispensers around the map. Each one gives a boost: lightning-fast reloads, points, power-ups on demand, automatic revives… You only draw from your own pack of 5 gumballs, put together before the match.
The host can turn gumballs off in the lobby (“Korrigan’s Gumballs” setting, see Lobby and match settings).
The pack
- You build your pack of 5 gumballs on the Loadouts screen, before the match, in the strip below the weapon: each gumball shows its name and when it works; hover it to read its effect. Each gumball shows its effect and when it works there (B key, duration, rounds or “Automatic”). At first, the pack holds the five level-1 Classics.
- In a match, the dispenser draws a gumball at random from your pack, without replacement: each gumball comes out once before the pack is shuffled again. The scoreboard (Tab) shows the ones already drawn.
- The dispenser avoids giving you the gumball you already have in your pocket.
- A Mega you have no copies of left is skipped. If the pack only holds used-up Megas, the dispenser refuses to serve (“Your pack is empty”).
The dispenser
A gumball’s price rises with each purchase within the same round:
| Purchase in the round | 1st | 2nd | 3rd |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | 500 | 1,000 | 2,000 |
After 3 purchases, the dispenser makes you wait for the next round. The counter is shared by all the dispensers on the map.
- Hold F in front of a dispenser and pay the purchase price.
- The korrigan prepares the gumball (about 2 seconds), then it waits 6 seconds in the cup.
- Hold F on the same dispenser to take it, or leave it.
Below the purchase prompt, a card reminds you that the gumball comes out at random from your pack, how many purchases you have left this round, and shows the pack’s gumballs (the ones already drawn or used up are greyed out). Once you take it, a “Gumball obtained” card shows for a few seconds above the crosshair: its name, its effect and what to do — “Press B to use it” for a blue gumball, “nothing to do” for the others, already active or automatic. During Training, one step has you take your first gumball.
Take it or leave it
A gumball you leave is not spent: a Mega stays in your stock. The points, however, are paid. Buying at another dispenser while the gumball is waiting also counts as leaving it.
Dispensers work without Power.

One gumball in your pocket
- You only hold one gumball at a time. Taking a new one replaces the old one; if the old one was active, its effect stops.
- The gumball’s color tells you how it activates:
| Color | Type | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| Blue | Activated | Press the “Korrigan’s Gumball” key (B by default); some have several uses |
| Orange | Timed | Works as soon as you take it, for a set duration |
| Purple | Rounds | Works as soon as you take it, for a number of rounds |
| Green | Automatic | Works at once, or waits for the event that triggers it (going down, a purchase…) |
Classics and Megas
| Rarity | How many | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Classics | 12 | Unlimited: they never run out |
| Megas | 17 | Consumable |
| Rare Megas | 19 | Consumable |
| Ultra-Rare Megas | 9 | Consumable |
- Classics unlock as you level up: five from level 1, the others from level 4 to level 32 (see Levels, ranks and prestige).
- Megas come from the Korrigan’s Workshop, where you distill Moon Nectar into random Megas (see Moon Nectar and the Korrigan’s Workshop). A Mega is only spent when you take it from the cup: as long as it waits at the bottom of the pack, it costs nothing.

- In a squad: Shared Breath, Great Pardon, Path of Souls to pick the others up; Share of the Loot to share points.
- To get ahead fast: Korrigan’s Treasure, Fair Day (all your purchases free for 60 seconds: head for the Forge of Ys and the perk machines), Korrigan’s Forge.
- High rounds: End of Watch (ends the round, but not during a boss fight, an Easter egg step or while a Diver is around), Sea Fog, Time Stands Still, Ankou’s Gaze.
- Safe Classics: Fairy Fingers, Ankou’s Mist and Sidestep save the day at no cost.
Don’t waste your Megas
Put Megas that are useful at any time in your pack, or mix them with Classics: a Mega drawn at the wrong moment can be left in the cup, and it then stays in your stock.
