Noob tube

noob tube is a miscellaneous item in item asylum. It's a grey launcher labeled "Noob Tube 3000". It is based on the Roblox gear of the same name. 
==Functionality==
Activating noob tube causes the item to start charging. After approximately 2 seconds, a Noob NPC will appear directly in front of the player. The noobs created do not move, though they are affected by status effects. They use a classic color scheme with the classic Roblox smile face.
Noobs are functionally identical to enemies. This means that standing near them in either JGN or BOSS will fill up the Rage Meter. Damage dealt to noobs counts for charge for items like loadsamoney, buster sword, and master spark. Killing them counts towards killstreaks for upgrading items, as well as the head count on eyelander. Their corpses can also be consumed by inferi and smile. The only thing killing a noob does not do is increment the player's kills or killstreak on the leaderboard.
After spawning a noob, noob tube will go on a cooldown of 10 seconds before it may be activated again. Noobs disappear after 40 seconds. noob tube cannot be used while outside of TC's combat zones.
==Tips==
*Remember that the noob tube takes a short time to generate a noob. Make sure to account for the delay in any plans.
*Most players will generally be able to see the noob for what it is and will treat it as a distraction. It can, however, function to body-block certain attacks.
**Slow-moving ranged projectiles and players with items like bobm on a stick are the best candidates to try to body-block with a noob.
**Auto-targeting homing items such as fantasy seal can lock onto the noob.
* Hostile NPCs will focus on attacking the noob, making it useful bait for getting breathing room if targeted by the AI.
*If the player is lucky enough to get an item capable of upgrading or powering up through kills, the noob tube can be used to mitigate some of the risk involved with getting into fights.
*The noob tube can be used to distract enemies in BOSS rounds, as hostile NPCs will target them.
* Standing near a noob fills the bar in BOSS or JGN, use this to your advantage.
==Trivia==
* Most of the possible names the noob can have are misspelled versions of names. "jeffery", "gilbert", "ben", and "alec" are the only exceptions to the misspelled names.
*There used to be a glitch where one can spam noobs with this, but this has been patched after v1.3.0.
**Though, this returns in Version 1.5.5 as part of April Fools 2024. This has been reverted the next update.
*noob tube users, along with earth tome users, provide the only way to upgrade items in JGN and most BOSS rounds.
