that hose looks pretty neat- and good to see a custom elitre, as it's the only charger I use
 
Looks like one of those things you use to fill up your car with petrol :-P
 
But is it a Nozzle or is it a Nose? We have a new Squid/Kid debate, great.
 
They seem nice, but sadly neither of them looks like they'd be my favorite weapon.
I want one that I enjoy in turf wars and ranked. Or at least for turf wars :p Hopefully they beat my expectation

I want something other than just regular rapid fire guns. The charger just has different subs/specials than one already in the game, and the Inkbrush is it's own category of weapons, but there's only 1 in that category. New weapons, new brushes, new chargers, but just more new rapid fires are kinda meh. At least there's 2 or 3 updates a week so they might come soon.

Meh charger's don't get much coverage and they're better at killing, but when I try them out, I feel like I kill better with aerospray and get the coverage. Same with tentatek (better kills/coverage than charger). So I don't entirely see the point in using them. >u< I do have a lot of fun with jet squelcher in ranked but it's so horrible in normals. A new type of gun would be nice, preferably one with more than average range.

I actually find the squiffer really useful in both normal and ranked. I hate how long the E-litre takes to charge though :/

That's how I felt and tried using the squiffer, but I still wasn't happy with the range? even though it charges faster. Custom jet squelcher had a noticeably longer range than the squiffer I was using, obviously doesn't have that line point sensor to let the enemies know you're aiming at them, and people don't expect someone with a gun to kraken. So I'm not very happy with any sniping gun so far ;u; I guess they're not my style, though before the game released, I wanted to main that gun.

The elite-range is great and some people are extremely good with it, but I felt too slow with it even though some people make it seem not slow at all.. I plan to still practice chargers in normal even tho i'll fail my team lmao

I find it impossible to use chargers with such low range, which is why elitre is my favourite. But then again chargers are terrible overall so that's not saying much.
 
New E-Liter :D

The custom logo makes it look like it comes from IKEA.

Hopefully it has better subs though. The Ecolocator was okay on the regular E-Liter I guess but the bombs are just so friggin' lame. I hope it gets a sprinkler.

The Kelpsplatter charger gets decent coverage as long as you remember to keep throwing down sprinklers. I've gotten 1200+ plus with it a few times (not including bonus) when I've actively tried for points with it.

But comparing it to the Aerospray is unfair. The Aerospray can get more coverage and kills than pretty much every weapon.

I had fun using it in kelpdome, but I admit that I forget to keep putting down sprinklers.
I didn't entirely compare it and it's just not aerospray, it's just annoying when I want to use the charger weapons and I see my scores and it's really nothing compared to tentakek/.52/aerospray guns (And jet squelcher is better imo for me in ranked). Sometimes I get good amount of kills other times I don't and other guns feel more consistent in both kills and coverage. I like people using them in ranked though. In normals people are everywhere so there's no safe spot and you have to move around to cover more than just one area, which is risky unless you want a short-ranged gun to kill u in ur face. Chargers atm are just for me to mess around with, but I won't be breaking any top scores with it unless I manage to get scores like you just said ;u; I've never seen really good coverage and kills when playing against other chargers in normals yet.

I'll just keep practicing n maybe i'll form a different opinion. >u<

Oh wow the Nozzlenose is bad. It's like a worse Inkbrush.
It could've been an okay weapon, but you have to repeatedly press ZR to shoot, you can't just hold it down. Don't expect to see it a lot.

Yeah, it's not that good for ink coverage or kills. Other weapons overwhelm it :\

I feel like the Inkbrush is an inferior version to the splat roller. Now I can't even imagine the Nozzlenose. I'm going to play a match with it later.
