Trivia

• Magnesium previously exploded in water like Lithium, Sodium, and Potassium, however since the 0.15.9.0 (Among the Ancients) update, this has been removed, citing issues related to Talents. It is likely that it was the Engineer's Arms Dealer talent that was the cause of this change.
• This change was not reflected in the item description until the 0.18.15.0 update, and so between these two updates, the description erroneously claimed that it would explode.
