Every 5 Bubbled applications, steal 2.5% Damage from the highest-damaging enemy in range.Bubbled: Enemy is slowed by 90% and takes +33% Damage.Passive 2 — I am Two, not One: After attacking, this unit may continue attacking with decreasing probability: each follow-up attack has a 100% chance to repeat, reduced by 5% with each successive strike. Each time an attack misses, reduce Attack Cooldown and Ability Cooldown by 9%.Passive 3 — Plunder Bubble: Every 10 Abilities, summon an enemy copy with the same stats as the last defeated enemy. For every summon on the field, increase summon damage by +55.5%.Passive 4 — Soft and Wet: 33% Range Increase on all Plunder Bubbles.Passive 5 — I See All: For every +2 Range above 50, increase Damage by +0.5% and Summon HP by +0.5% (no cap).Recommended Gappy BuildRecommended build for GappyJust like other meta DPS units, you should focus on maximizing Gappy's ability damage in order to optimize his DPS.
