In the shootout multiplayer matches from the game Banjo-Tooie, players can get their hands on a unique ammunition egg known as the Proximity Egg, which can only be used with the Breegull Blaster technique. These eggs are a fantastic addition to the game, as they behave like a classic first-person shooter weapon, the proximity mine, similar to Rareware’s popular game GoldenEye for the Nintendo 64 console. When fired, the Proximity Egg will follow the laws of gravity and stick to any surface it comes into contact with. If one of the participating players gets too close to the Proximity Egg, it will detonate, causing massive damage to the victim. It’s worth noting that they can be triggered by Clockwork Kazooie Eggs, so other players can use it as an improvised alarm system when holding a base in multiplayer matches. The sound effect produced when firing the Proximity Egg on a surface is the same as when firing a Clockwork Kazooie Egg, adding an extra layer of familiarity for the Banjo-Kazooie community. One thing that players should keep in mind when using Proximity Eggs is that it takes five seconds for them to arm themselves and become mostly transparent, making them harder to see. Furthermore, players can also collect Proximity Eggs by grabbing them before they become fully armed. At the same time, it’s also possible that players detonate Proximity Eggs from a safe distance by hitting them with another egg type. It’s important to note that hitting an opponent with a Proximity Egg doesn’t cause any damage, but instead gives the egg to the player who was hit while causing them to flinch. With these details in mind, players can use the Proximity Egg to their advantage in Banjo-Tooie’s shootout multiplayer matches and emerge victorious, adding an exciting new dimension to the game’s gameplay.
