dragon enthusiast posted:also you get thermal ink on the entire enemy team while in squid form so abuse it and fire in spurts if you need to reposition i do a thing with my stingray where i fire at a squid, if i lose track after i get a few hits in then i quickly squid to see them, reaim and start firing again until they get splatted, then i do the same thing to my next target. might do a squid/fire/squid/fire several times so long as the stingray is active however if i get splatted by the same squid later in the match, i get squidbagged cause they think im bming them, which i guess is what they interpreted it as :( also my favorite thing when i have a charged stingray is when someone on my team marks a bad guy with a point sensor (do the stingray dance)

Goodguy3 posted:The new map is pretty good but the supplied weapons for the next two days, good God. Blaster, Charger, some burst fire gun. At least there isn't a roller and a brush or something speaking as one of mr grizz's best employees, these weapons are actually pretty solid. rapid-fire shooters arent the end all be all weapon type, everything has its place

maybe this is a super unpopular opinion but i think everyone in profeshional should know how to use every weapon like im primarily a scoped charger guy in the main game but i still managed to get to 540 in the last run (squiffer, clash blaster, splattershot pro and dualies) before mr grizz told me to go home to my family

i guess my point was that there are probably tons of other weapons that a lot of people dont touch either, i myself dont even own a nozzlenose or blaster (and i suspect a lot of squids dont use them much either - looked at my last 50 battles and there were nozzlenoses in three of those and a blaster in two) but itd be a shame to not include them cause theyre pretty fun this is where i got after two hours  in any case i agree with kraken, i find the most important thing in salmon run is knowing the flow of the battle and staying alive especially staying alive    Jonas Albrecht posted:Gonna charger duel Smiles someday. hey since us and aus/nz splatfests are combined now maybe we will meet on the splattlefield (and lag will make sure i splat you five seconds after you splat me)

Neddy Seagoon posted:Except you're actively ignoring the fact that the minimum competency for either of those weapons (or hell, any other weapon type) starts and ends with "hold/repeatedly mash trigger, aim at Salmonids". its true its got a higher skill threshold but i still think youre overestimating how difficult it is to aim a charger against something that isnt a bad guy inkling. ive just played another hour, had squids taking out the maw only by shooting it when it pops up, squidding through the nets into the water along with a charger who might not be that familiar with the weapon on the team and still got to 340 from 240 so i really dont think the weapon is a problem here

then maybe they should get good with it or risk staying in part-timer? i dunno dude, you keep telling us the charger is a sub optimal weapon not everyone will know how to use but somehow a lot of us here can still manage to get further beyond profreshional even with it in rotation

raditts posted:Do you guys get these numbers playing with pubbies? I think the best I've done is like 160 or so, and that was with the really good weapon set a week or two ago. i exclusively solo queue with randoms and honestly i dont think theyre as bad as a lot of people make them out to be. occasionally you do come across a squid (or three) who arent on the ball, i mean ive cleared shifts where i end with 10+ revives because they keep overextending or tunnel visioning, which means i have to put some work in. on the other hand, ive played with squids wholl throw a bomb into a flyfishs left launcher at the same time you throw a bomb into its right, squids who wait for the scrapper to come up narrow walkways before ganging up on it in a more open area or squids with a crowd control weapon clearing out the cannon fodder around you while you charge up your long range weapon at a steelhead. so yeah, if youre on top of things you can tilt the scales in your favor but when everyones on the same page its easy street.

Polish Avenger posted:It didn't seem to be doing anything at all, maybe I have to aim higher to hit it when it's under the umbrella. only the stingray can pierce drizzler armor, the only time its vulnerable to regular weapons is when its fired a missile or flying a fully charged e-liter can, with one shot, kill steel eels, scrappers and steel heads, knock out most of a drizzlers hp and stun a griller; it's the hardest hitting weapon in the game, but charges slowly, so pick and choose your targets. chargers in general are also top tier when a row of salmonid are approaching you (like those narrow stretches of land during lowtide) because you can pierce and wipe out the entire lot, and if one of your downed buddies are behind them, it will revive them too. theyre not so great with scattered mobs, small fry or stingers but then again that was the splattershot jr's or brella's job

Neddy Seagoon posted:While you're building that charge, it's almost certain that at least one or two other guys in your Crew are just diving into the same row and murdering everything down with Rollers/Blasters/Shooters. great if they are, less salmonids around, the better, but sometimes theyre off punishing a stinger or need a path cleared so they can have enough time and ink to throw a splat bomb at a flyfish. a splat charger literally takes a second to charge and erase every chum in the row and another second to finish off the weakened cohocks, an e-liter takes one a half seconds and wipes them all out in go. nothing else kills faster when theyre all lined up like that. ive had rollers/blasters/shooters turn around and look at me like, hey save some for me >:(

that isnt very ink or time efficient tho when a blaster can knock it out in one hit or a shooter can bring it down to size in a second e: at higher levels especially, when bosses spawn every few seconds and you have a 20 egg quota, you really need the most efficient tool for the job otherwise youre just gonna get swarmed Smiles fucked around with this message at 03:16 on Sep 13, 2017 |

Neddy Seagoon posted:Your job with a Roller is efficient Chum-murdering and pathmaking, which is worth its weight in gold. That keeps the other three free to kill Bosses without getting slapped about by Small-Fry. yeah dude i know the rollers not great for stingers, which is why im calling for the blaster and splattershot to come and take it out instead of trying to pile on the steelhead by the basket which the squelcher can handle by theirself? sometimes youre stuck facing a boss on your lonesome with a suboptimal weapon type but you have to make do

yeah dont worry about it, i main scope chargers but i still jumped from C- to B to A to A+ on all three modes. i only stopped after a particularly horrid bout of unreliable internet where i disconnected every other game and had my bar break when i was literally one win away from S (i helped our guy dunk the rainmaker then brzzzt communication error :<<<< ) and got really disheartened. maybe ill continue ranked again once i move somewhere with more reliable internetManuel Calavera posted:Those two were my jam back then. Seekers were so good. the best thing was when you throw one out randomly, it splats a bad guy and you go, 'oh i got someone... lol' autobombs just arent as satisfying for some reason

Dr. Fetus posted:Turns out the maximum rank is 999. Your pay grade maxes out at 435%. awwww shucks i thought it wouldve gone on forever. that rank does appeal to my love of 9s though so maybe im gonna try even harder i feel around the 500 to 600 mark, small mistakes can really add up and it gets exponentially harder as the wave goes on. i think i remember one shift on lost outpost where it was wave 1 mid-tide at the grates, two flyfish spawned at once, we managed to take one out and half of the other, but then a few stingers spawned on the other piers and lasers and missiles just kept criss-crossing and made a mess of things and then a steel eel snuck up on us somehow and yea that was not one of my finest moments
