thumb nursefather

Thumb nursefather is a Limbus Company melee item with a three-hit combo, Precognition and a revival while held. Its revived form changes damage and maximum health. The important distinction is between an item-specific damage bonus and a general attack multiplier: the recorded July change explicitly separates those effects.

How it works

Ordinary attacks form a three-part sequence, with fire attached to parts of the combo. Precognition is a defensive timing ability: a successful nearby dodge moves the user back and briefly stuns the attacker. Failure instead gives a temporary damage penalty and a longer wait before another attempt. The current change notes say a successful Precognition increases this weapon’s damage, so an old description promising a bonus to every attack should be read cautiously.

Sezionatura di Elefante combines several weaker stabs and slashes with a final hit. During the move the user cannot walk or jump and receives additional defense. The attack’s individual ticks and the final strike are listed separately because quoting only one tick would understate the sequence. Revival increases several of these damage values, along with the normal combo.

The wiki says the weapon must be equipped when fatal damage arrives for its revival to work. This condition differs from passive defensive items such as last breath. There is also an internal source conflict: the functionality paragraph still mentions an initial fifteen maximum-health increase, while the July change log says that initial increase was removed. The table leaves that disputed starting bonus out rather than treating both descriptions as current.
