Ultra-Violet (Cyborg Ranger)

Ultra-Violet is a plant that appears in Plants vs. Zombies 2. She is obtained by purchasing her in the store for 100 gems.

Ultra-Violet is an instant-use plant. She fires an ultraviolet ray in the sky when planted. Once finished, sun falling from the sky will be empowered, giving 75 sun instead of the usual 50, as well as making sun fall more often. However, falling sun will also become Sun Bombs. This effect lasts for 50 seconds.

NOTE: Although the sun bombs will appear bigger than usual, they will still do the same amount of damage (500 dps) in the same area (3x3).

Origin
Ultra-Violet is based on the Viola, a genus of flowering plants mostly found in the temperate Northern Hemisphere. The term "Ultra-Violet" refers to UV rays, which are electromagnetic waves produced by the Sun.

Enlighten-mint Effect
When powered by Enlighten-mint, Ultra-Violet's effect will last for 10 seconds longer.

Level upgrade
Unline most plants, Ultra-Violet does not have any level upgrades.

Strategies
Ultra-Violet can be considered as both an offensive plant and a supportive plant. You can use the plant when you're either low on sun or if you require assistance with killing zombies, considering the high damage output of sun bombs. You should always remember the mechanics of sun bombs, otherwise you might lose some very important plants.

Trivia

 * During Ultra-Violet's effect, the lawn will appear to have a bright purple tint. The tint fades as the effect runs out.
