    The Scuttlebrace is a yellow tool that enables Hornet to perform a rapid retreat<\/strong>, similar to a spider’s scuttle. This maneuver is not just a simple dodge; it offers significant mobility advantages. When activated, Hornet can quickly move backward or in the direction she is facing, covering a considerable distance. Moreover, by holding down the button, Hornet can even walk on walls<\/strong> in this stance, allowing access to otherwise unreachable areas.<\/p>\n
