How to get Steam

1. Open the DLC content

   Own and install Risen Ballbylon and complete the base game. Water is a new DLC base ball. Burn is a base-game ball. Check DLC access →

2. Get both ingredients to level 3

   Obtain Water and Burn when offered in your run. Choose each ball again in level-up upgrades until both are level 3. Merely holding both balls is not enough.

3. Select Steam at a Fusion Reactor

   Pick up a Fusion Reactor when one drops and choose the Steam Evolution. Look for the exact target name rather than trying to create a regular mixed fusion. The finished ball should be named Steam.

Plan from the balls you currently hold →

What Steam does

Passes through enemies and leaves a steam trail for a short time after launch. Enemies inside the steam take damage every second.

Use & limits

The trail is temporary, follows the shot’s route and damages enemies inside it. Enemies outside the steam are not covered by the trail effect.

When to choose it

Choose Steam when you want the shot’s route to leave a short-lived damaging trail. Compare Ash for an ash trail that applies stacking burn; Steam’s trail deals recurring damage.

If the Evolution is missing

Check the exact ingredient pair and both current levels. A recipe sharing one ingredient is a different target: check that both selected names match Steam’s pair. If an ingredient has not appeared, it is still missing; no fixed drop time, minimum reactor count or guaranteed offer is implied.

If its effect looks different

If the trail stops damaging a target, check whether the steam has expired or the target is no longer inside it. The trail is not a permanent field-wide damage effect.
