As 1 of the 11 new cards introduced during Children of the Worm, Out with a Bang is a great card to have on the team because it helps manage hordes after a player goes down.
What is Out With A Bang?
Out With A Bang is a Brawn type and Talent type active card that was added as part of the Children of the Worm expansion in Back 4 Blood. It has two effects:
- Give the player with the card 1 extra life
- Any player on the team will drop an active Pipe Bomb when they are downed
Card Synergies
Out with a Bang synergizes well with 2 types of cards: cards that enhance pipe bombs, and cards that also trigger from incapacitated players.
