The Custom Douser Dualies FF is the alternative variant of the Douser Dualies FF, with a loadout of Burst Bomb and Triple Inkstrike. It has the longest range of any dualie, and compared to long-range shooters, the Custom Douser Dualies FF slightly outranges the Squeezer, but is just shy of the Jet Squelcher. It can perform just one Dodge Roll at a time, and the distance travelled is further than other dualies. After rolling, the range is shorter, around the range of the Dualie Squelchers, but the fire rate, shot velocity and accuracy increase drastically, at the cost of high ink consumption. Because of these qualities, the Custom Douser Dualies FF finds itself positioned further back than most weapons, much like an anchor, but also flexes between a support and a slayer-type role.[1][2][3]
Use
- The Custom Douser Dualies FF's main strength is its range in its normal firing mode, which also has a fairly fast strafing speed. This mode should be used most of the time, which can pressure opponents at range, and provide long-range chip damage and turfing support for teammates. At 25.5 damage per shot, they will need 4 shots to splat an opponent.[2]
- The weapon outranges a large amount of weapons in the game, so use this to your advantage. Try to stay in your most effective range, as they have poor fall-off damage.[2]
- Dodge Rolls must be used more strategically compared to the other dualies, and should be used sparingly. As it only has one Dodge Roll, this leaves little room for error. They should be used for confirmed splats on opponents, or as a defensive measure if you find yourself being rushed down.[2]
- Its Dodge Roll also travels further than other dualies. Extra care should be taken on stages such as Mahi-Mahi Resort, where it is possible to roll into stage hazards.
- Burst Bombs can help with the weapon's damage. The main weapon will be able to splat an opponent in two shots after a direct hit with a Burst Bomb, or three with an indirect. It can also make its matchups against certain weapons such as Range Blaster more favorable by limiting its movement.[4]
Synergy
- Due to the weapon's long range, it is more able to safely use its Triple Inkstrike special from further back.[5]
- While Burst Bombs help with the weapon's overall damage and combos well with its Dodge Roll, it is also useful for chip damage for teammates, playing into its supportive role.[5]
- They can also help the weapon in being more consistent with hitting its shots, and is able to be positioned much more aggressively as a result.[6]
Countermeasures
Gear Abilities
Gear abilities provide different effects in battle that benefit the player with their equipped weapon. This is a guide to gear abilities in relation to the weapon. Strategy, synergy, viability, and purpose may be written here.
The Custom Douser Dualies FF runs many of the same abilities as its original variant, but it tends to have less gear freedom.
Since the normal firing mode should be used most of the time, Run Speed Up will improve its strafing speed, while also helping it to paint more effectively. 1 main, or at the very least 2 subs of Run Speed Up is recommended.[1][7]
This ability works somewhat well on the weapon to improve its jump accuracy, as they can utilize dualie hopping. Only 1 sub is recommended.[7]
While the weapon plays further back than most weapons, Stealth Jump is a great ability to have on almost any weapon.[7]
One sub of each is recommended as utility subs. Special Saver is considered mandatory on the weapon due to the lack of Special Charge Up.[7]
Recommended on Clam Blitz, Tower Control, and Rainmaker.[7]
Recommended on Splat Zones. This ability is also recommended on some stages on Tower Control and Rainmaker that tend to snowball.[7]
Helps with the weapon's ink efficiency in general, but especially after throwing a Burst Bomb. This allows the weapon to fire for longer after throwing a Burst Bomb compared to if it was running Ink Saver (Sub). 2 subs is recommended.[7]
Allows the weapon to have less downtime after throwing a Burst Bomb. 1 sub is recommended.[7]
Allows Burst Bombs to be thrown farther. 2 subs of Sub Power Up makes it so the range is around the weapon's max range in its normal firing mode.[7]
