Crutch

• Bullets slightly curve towards enemies.

• Smart Bombs - If the player also has [Bomb] or [Ice Bomb] , bombs home in on enemies.
• Pea Cannon - if the player also has [Pea Shooter] , its damage is increased and shots cause small explosions.
• The homing of this item appears to stack with guns whose projectiles already home, allowing them to turn faster towards their targets.
• Similarly, if duplicates of this item are somehow obtained, bullets home in on enemies more strongly, turning faster to reach their target.
• [Heavy Bullets] works well with this item if the player plans to rely on the homing, giving bullets more airtime to home in on enemies.

• This item is a reference to a "crutch", something used, usually in a game, that requires less skill to be effective and powerful but get in the way of improving at the game. The description "You Need It" is basically the game telling you that you suck and need help with aiming. Statistic calculations over a large source of open data have proved that most of the time, the description and its innate connotations are indeed accurate.
• A "crutch" within multiplayer games usually refers to an item that helps low skill players while hindering high skill players (though usually by opportunity cost); the crutch item does this, as it may curve bullets away from a further high-priority target you were aiming for in favor of arching towards a closer low-threat target.
• The Pea Cannon synergy is a reference to the game Plants Vs. Zombies Garden Warfare, in which splash damage from the Peashooter class's primary weapon is used as a crutch for aiming. This is a common trope in other games in which a weapon has high splash damage.
