Squid Fashion Exhibit #33: Dreadwringer

Fashion Theme: Bright yellow and aqua

Emote: Spring Loaded because I feel like the bright colour scheme is very positive and also because this is one of the weapons that makes me feel less helpless lol

Gear Intent: Drop Roller instead of Stealth Jump (I tend to use one or the other) because I feel like on maps with elevation differences this could be handy to catch jump campers unaware while being able to attach from off angle. Thermal Ink because this weapon can arc over objects so can actually play off markings. Comeback to help get in faster after popping Reefslider and dying 🙃 Some special power up to attempt to make Reefslider more effective (this was before a bunch of buffs to the special)

Overall Thoughts: My new favourite slosher. Since they reduced the firing speed of the Sloshing Machine (my former favourite) it’s no longer very satisfying to play. Dreadwringer also has the advantage of Thermal Ink actually working (I believe the Sloshing Machine shots are treated like blaster shots which don’t always trigger Thermal Ink). It also feels like a support weapon without being a backline and those are the kind of weapons I tend to gravitate to.

I found this was a good weapon for Rainmaker and Clam Blitz. It has good range to fend off quite a few weapons and has a lethal bomb as well. The ability to fire from behind cover is also useful when defending the clam basket when the other team has a long range weapon locking you in base. And Reefslider is good for pushes, especially for Rainmaker.

This is a main weapon I would be happy to try and learn better but honestly…Reefslider…
