NEON ABYSS

Ancient Mask

Bomb kills are the trigger. A gun kill does not match the published line.

I would save a bomb for a packed room rather than a single door if I wanted the heart chance. The table ties recovery to bomb kills specifically.

Effect

There is a chance to recover hearts when you kill an enemy with a bomb. Chance and heart count are both unpublished in that row.

Set Membership and Trigger

Ancient Mask is a Will of Steel member. Any four members activate the documented explosion-protection set bonus; Ancient Mask alone does not confer that immunity. Its own healing requires a Bomb kill and is chance-based, so damage without a kill is insufficient.

Related Mechanics and Evidence

Ancient Mask needs a Bomb kill for its possible healing reward. Coin Bomb makes uncollected coins explode after three seconds. Do not assume a coin explosion is the Mask’s Bomb-kill trigger.

This comparison is an editorial interpretation of the cited mechanics, not an official combo test. Unknown numerical values and unlock tasks remain unknown.

What does Ancient Mask do?

Bomb kills have a chance to restore hearts.

How many hearts?

The row does not say. I am not filling in a number.
