Strategy[]

Tips[]

  • Use this weapon to finish off weakened targets or deal normal damage against armored targets.
  • It has devastating splash damage, use it to wreak havoc on the enemy.
  • The map's airspace can help you pick off targets as it gives you a better view of the field.
  • You could use this weapon similarly to the Dead Star, since they both have instant travel times, however, be careful in timing your shots.
  • Pair this up with the Jetpack and rain down shots from above.
  • You can use this in 3 cat spam / 4 cat spam or even 6 cat spam as this weapon has no travel time and has no types of delays. This weapon can also be used for rocket jump, making this a multi-purpose weapon. It is not recommended to use this weapon singlehandedly because of its low fire rate.
  • Although this weapon is weaker than the Dark Mage Wand, its damage is pretty high for lower levels, and is very powerful if upgraded to Mythical tier.

Counters[]

  • Try to use an area damage weapon to flush them out into open space, then kill them.
  • Pick off its user(s) from long ranges.
  • Use weapons that can kill users quickly, such as the Big Buddy or the Portalium Rifle
  • To counter the flying user(s). Use a weapon with the Slow Down Target attribute to make them easier to hit.
    • This strategy doesn't only apply to flying targets. It can be also applied to high-jumping ones, where they'll be stapled to the ground, therefore making their attacks futile and vulnerable to attacks.
