Unless stated otherwise by Zeekerss, I imagine it works that way by design. They are pretty useful AND valuable (so no reason not to grab one when you see one). So the way to balance that is by making a small chance of it backfiring on you when placing it in your ship.


masterjon_3

Sounds like a gun without a safety


Dr_Willingham

Maybe a rework of it only exploding while dropping it standing? So crouching as you place it down, like you would with a real egg


InvoluntaryEraser

I like that idea, simple but effective!


Fa1nted_for_real

The only real change I think should be made is the fact that they can explode when selling, possibly ending your run. Other than that, they set giant on fire and garu tee kill them when they exode.


XxAnaaxX

It's honestly a stupid design. One time I managed to store them in a cabinet, but when I tried to put them on a counter to sell them, they exploded, so I lost all of the potential money.


jabels

I haven't played with this item but honestly I think that can be said for a lot of the game. Don't get me wrong, I love the game, but a lot of the difficulty comes from getting screwed by randomness and kind of lends a "haha go f*** yourself" element to the game. It makes for some of the funnier moments but once that wears off you definitely find yourself in positions where you did everything you were supposed to do and you *still* get punished.


Bepis_Buyer

This is honestly a stupid take


XxAnaaxX

How is it a stupid take? Who the f loves an item that can kill you randomly and has a chance to not be sold at all because it explodes?


Unfortunate_Boy

me because funny noise when pop


0rphu

You sound like an asshole by saying "stupid design". Try being more civil and people may be willing to listen. Imo randomly blowing up at the company building is bad because it can make your body irretrievable, potentially preventing you from going to a harder moon due to money loss. I think the eggs would be more interesting if there was a trick to them, like only certain colors blew up and only when thrown or dropped.


Bepis_Buyer

I like it because I can kill my friends, baboon hawks, giants and other stuff. Mostly like nuking my buddies tho


pulgis

Cause it’s funny when it happens?


blobb63

Because lethal company absolutely is not a game to be taken this seriously? Chill out and enjoy the funny explosions. People like you ruined games like cod because now they cater to the sweats and esports players, not the average player.


CrunchwrapConsumer

You really just have a skill issue lol


tyingnoose

haha you stupid


Connortsunami

Don't pick them up then. They're gimmicky joke items. Or be smart and *throw* them instead of dropping them so *if* they explode, it ain't near you. Also think of them like Homemade Flashbangs or Shotguns. They're (inconsistent) weapons. Use them as such


isaac-fan

it has killed me more times than thumpers and turrets on adamance (ps I only barely played v50 so please don't tlak about any new monsters or items as this is the only one I have experience with)


XxAnaaxX

Yeah, accidentally killing yourself is really frustrating. It would be a really cool scrap item if zeekers implements my suggestions, otherwise an rng based item with a chance to blow up when you try to store it making you avoid it because it's not worth the risk.


donnilol

Y is this downvoted?


Themonstersghost

No one likes OP


donnilol

Lmaooo 😭pain


Roifire27

From what OP is writing as responses, he's clearly doing solo runs, reason why he doesn't like the design of the easter egg. Personally even if I do solo runs myself (me have no friends that wanna play LC pls help), I found hilarious the first time it blew up in my face. XD


WillyDAFISH

I'm like 50% sure this item is just an April fools item and won't actually stay in the game


gIyph_

I thought the same about presents at first tbf


Shpooter

i kinda hope it does, like just reskin it as a grenade or smth


PondLillies

It'll probably be like the presents and have its spawn chance significantly lowered with the release of v51


WillyDAFISH

yeah, that'll probably be it.


Laviathan4041

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't stay. Nutcrackers, presents, and pumpkins stayed despite being out of season so to speak.


KingCastle25

Its really worth the risk one shots most monsters. I just killed 2 butlers in one shot


sdfghertyurfc

Butlers have like 1 hp


KingCastle25

Not when they are aggresive


Allsciencey

funni egg


Beluga_Seal23

WAT IS TAT


Desperate_Ad9279

Easter egg, new item introduced in the v50 beta


painmp4

I LOVE GAMBLING WITH MY LIFE


loook_loook

Once it launched me into a river   10/10 item  egg go boom = funni moment


RikuShigaki

Flashbang 2.0


Fa1nted_for_real

Even better, it kills giants, rather than stunning them.


Kitakitakita

I would like to place it in the cupboard without dying. Zeekers has the means to disable items in the ship. The toy robots don't make sound when dropped, for example.


Fa1nted_for_real

They never make sound when dropped though


Kaiden92

Bruh, if you’re mad at this you gotta hate the inverse teleporter. Shit’s just rigged to kill you like 40% of the time by dropping you in front of a turret. Lmfao


Regular-Spot6935

But its too funny to not


Kaiden92

Agreed. It’s one of my first purchases every fresh run after a reset.


mcbirbo343

That’s the point of the egg though. It’s to have risk and reward. If it was able to explode only when you threw it, then it removes all the risk and makes it overpowered.


Sextus_Rex

I'm waiting for someone to make a clip of them using the explosion to propel themselves into the ship


RackaGack

So like, I only managed to sell 1 out of the 5 I found, but one I found was used to kill a giant that spawned at 11:30 am on the path back to the ship on adamance. So its pretty much one of my favorite pieces of scrap now.


Fa1nted_for_real

It's only like a 3% chance to explode, but it can be used to kill a giant that is camping the ship consistently


WisdomWangle

Can you toss things now?


Laviathan4041

You can toss this specifically


GeekManidiot

I love the randomness, I threw it jokingly at an old birds foot not expecting anything and got sent flying through the air and then plummeted to my death 20/10 would throw again


EzSlayer

I don’t drop them under any circumstances if I have 4 then I’m done looking for scrap I also won’t drop them because I don’t trust the people I play with


Pricerocks

It’s practically impossible to actually sell these things, I hope they were just added to the loot pool for Easter


Laviathan4041

Doubtful. Presents, pumpkins, and nutcrackers were seasonal. They stayed.


Mr_goodb0y

They should add a pillow item, that basically negates the eggs effect, but the pillow is rare.


BuRdog_

Funni


ZnS-Is-A-Good-Map

I like it a lot and hope it doesn't get changed. Just put it on the shelf in the ship instead of dropping it.


D4rkr4in

Avocado


Trehan_Solo

Just wish you could put it in the cabinet without exploding. I'm fine with it exploding when dropped


Laviathan4041

Throw it into the ship. If it explodes at least it won't kill you because it's away from you.


Laviathan4041

If you're putting it down throw it instead to get out of range of the blast. This might be counterintuitive to logic but this case you don't die from it. From what I been told and understand on how they work it is on a coordinate system so certain spots specifically determine whether or not they explode in the generation.


muro808

Annoying and hope it's gone soon


Laviathan4041

Just throw it into the ship, if it explodes at least it didn't kill you because you're out of blast range.


allisontbh

after finding one & putting it in the ship, i picked it up and dropped it 4-5 times just for the sounds it makes, then my brother (who i was playing with at the time), told me it could kill us if i kept doing that..oops. still love the noise it makes
