Something hungrier for ink than the Squeezer? I know you are right about that, but it's still ridiculous to an extreme degree. Needing a full ink tank just to do something as mundane as popping bubbles does not make me excited to hold this object of monstrous appetite in my hands. I feel like it might turn around and try to eat me before I get to use it on my opponents.

You can always use these: :ability_inksavermain::ability_inksaversub::ability_inkrecovery:
I guess so, but still that’s using probably a lot of gear slots to fix one issue, and you’ll still have the fact that curling bombs don’t really jive with the range blaster. You can’t rly use them for easily herding opponents out of an area/into your shots since they kinda slide all over the place, and the fact that u gotta cook them to explode them at your feet will make it hard to use them for spacing/retreats. I’m not optimistic about this set, but then again I’m not v good with blasters in general so maybe I’m missing some advantages the set has.

Anyway what was this thread about? Clash blaster? Clash blaster.

I already use a gearset of all ink stuff for the vanilla range blaster, and this new one is even hungrier if you want to try to use curling bombs for anything. I think they may have gone slightly overboard with the ink consumption on the range. Just a littttle.

I'm not saying this set is great or anything, but I don't think it's the worst thing ever either. At the very least it seems decent for Clam Blitz.

Suctions and Curlings both take 70%, though curlings have a slightly longer delay before your ink can recharge. But yeah when I was using the vanilla range even with ink efficiency abilitys it was still a bit of a struggle. Now that they've seen that the weapon isn't as OP as it was in the first game hopefully they'll ease up on it.

Yeah, and the way each is best used makes it a bigger drag for curling. If you can't follow up a curling bomb with movement, it has a much more limited use. I say this, and I love the idea of curling bombs on the clash blaster. There, it makes a lot of sense.

It's fast and light, and very easy to use.
Plus when you start hammering on someone, they will have a hard time dodging you, if they didn't notice you first that is.

Oh and that Tri-Slosher really don't need Ink-Storm, it's good enough WITHOUT it, please?

Auto Bomb Launcher? That was going to be a thing? No thank you! I have a hard enough time with Curling Bomb Launcher! havingn all of those start tracking people would create even more chaos! I hope this never becomes a thing.

On a slightly different note, I loved the Seeker Launcher in the first game. I would be okay with seeing that come back. As well as Seekers in general. I am rather sure that won't happen, but it would be fun.

I feel like Clash Neo will be really annoying to fight against. Curling Bombs to close the distance to your target and Missiles to constantly poke. Also, good luck trying to get around corners when this comes out.

You just mde my more hyped for it! :p
Though since clashes turfing is fairly bad, i don’t think tenta missiles will be that anoying.
I mean, you won’t be ‘spammin’ it as much as it’s on a duallie.
Still ways better then stingray on it imo.

Clash Blaster Neo may get me to start liking the Clash Blaster in general. The kit sounds wonderful! Not many people like the Tenta Missiles, but I think I can make this work.

I hate the new Tri-Sloshers, cause i'm not maining them, while everyone else is.



Oops it's not out yet, but i still hate the original one anyway, and i still think i'll hate the alternate one even more.

Is the tri stil that popular?
I though after it’s nerf it stopped being used wide-spread.

It turfs quickly, and it hits opponent from above easily, and it's a two-shoter (Splat in two shots), with it's short range, it's a perfect weapon to hit opponents hiding underneath where you are shooting from, angling properly, or rather it's a better weapon compared to many to do so.

Plus giving it Inkstorm to turf almost twice as fast as before just makes it redundantly useful for map control.

Nerf all you want, as long as it's a two hitter, it's still going to be overpowered if you can get close to anyone.
Plus it's wide hit range compared to other sloshers just makes it so much more powerful in close range.

Some people hacked the game and found out that the Tri Sloshed Noveau has Auto Bomb Launcher. Also if you look at the in game description of it with the picture, you see an inkling with the launcher on his back and give different types of bombs that would become launchers, the Solar Bomb, Suction Bomb, Burst Bomb, Curling Bomb, and the Autobombn which is why I think the autobomb launcher is coming soon

I probably wouldn't go as far as to say Stingray is inferior, but Tentamissles will definitely be especially good on this weapon. The Clash Blaster itself turfs decently enough, and you've got curling bombs. Add some abilitys to that and it'll see Missles often. As for why they'll be so effective, the Missles echolocater effect naturally fits with a weapon that can hit around walls, much like the vanilla Slosher. Curling bombs will help ensure you're able to pressure alongside your missles, and hits from either will reduce the Clash Blaster's shots needed to kill.
