How to Use Range Blaster Effectively

Go to higher ground or key vantage points. Landing direct hits results in an insta-splat! Reveal enemies in hiding with the Wave Breaker.

Position yourself at high vantage points and use its long-range capability.

The Range Blaster has a longer range than its Blaster siblings. Familiarize yourself with the stages and study key vantage points that are excellent at shooting enemies from a great distance.

Landing direct hits to Inklings results in an insta-splat!

Be patient and only shoot at targets that are not moving too fast. A quick tip is to wait for them to get in fights with your allies to make them stationary targets and then start blasting away!

Throw the Wave Breaker in the heat of battle to reveal all enemies hiding behind walls.

Blasters have blast damage and will force the enemy to take cover. Use the Wave Breaker to reveal their positions which will open a window of opportunity for you to jump in the fight and engage with the enemy Inklings.
