Recommended Abilities
Tenacity
The Tenacity ability is very effective on Charger weapons. With Tenacity equipped, the Special Gauge automatically fills anytime the wearer's team has more inactive (waiting to respawn) players than the enemy team. As the Custom E-Liter 3K has poor ink output and tends to be splatted significantly less often than most other weapons, Tenacity is optimal to ensure Kraken is readily available,
Cold Blooded
The Cold Blooded ability reduces the duration of tracking by Point Sensors, Haunt, and Echolocators by 75%. Because of the E-liter 3K's extremely limited mobility (15), Cold Blooded allows players to be unpredictable in positioning, win sniper duels and prevent quick splats by enemy snipers
Ink Recovery Up
The Ink Recovery Up ability hastens the refill rate of ink. The Custom E-liter 3K relies on frequent supplies of ink, making this ability important. Tentatek gear has a 5x higher chance of rolling this ability.
Swim Speed Up
The Swim Speed Up ability increases the speed of the squid whilst in ink. As the E-Litre has slower base swim speed than most other weapons, which translate to its Kraken speed as well, Swim Speed Up is essential to make effective escapes and to successfully chase down enemies with Kraken, offsetting some of the base swim speed reduction.
