Laser Burn
The Iron Juggernaut's tail cannon now focuses briefly on random players.
Mortar Cannon
Crawler Mines
The Iron Juggernaut releases several Crawler Mines that scurry in the direction of random players, burying themselves partially into the ground. Once they burrow, they begin a detonation sequence. At the end of the sequence, they will detonate for Physical damage to all players. A particularly brave player may stomp a burrowed Mine into the ground, stifling the explosion but causing a localized detonation at their feet. This explosion inflicts Physical damage and knocks the player high into the air.

Flame Vents
