Backfire Effect

Description
Backfire will cause the weapon to backfire and attack it's user instead of it's target. This has a 20% chance to occur, but seems more random than that when you're on the recieving end of a backfiring weapon!

Strategy
It is rather random, so there isn't much strategy involved. One thing you can do is add in some Protection versus a particular attack type, and then match that with the attack type on your backfiring weapon. Hot Spot's blue fireball guns often backfire, but he is also highly resistant to damage from fire, so if he does backfire it hurts less.
