Data

• The Light Tetra Dualies is a middleweight weapon.
• The matchmaking range is 140. The game's matchmaking system looks at a team's average matchmaking range value, and matches them against a team with a similar average.
• The ink consumption of 0.8% and ink tank capacity of 100% allows players to fire 125 shots before needing to refill the ink supply.
  • This stat can be changed with Ink Saver (Main).
• When initially firing the weapon in humanoid form, the first shot takes 3 frames to come out.
• When firing from swim form, the first shot takes 12 frames to come out.
• The interval between firing and when the player is able to enter swim form or use a sub weapon is 4 frames.
• When firing continuously, it shoots a bullet every 6 frames (10 shots per second).
• When firing while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.72 units per frame.
• After firing, there is a 20 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
• Each shot has a base damage of 28.
• If a shot is in the air for more than 8 frames after being fired, it loses 1.75 damage per frame until it reaches 14 damage at frame 16.
• The bullet hitbox for collisions with players has a radius of 2 units.
• The bullet hitbox for collisions with the environment has a radius of 2 units.
• The angle its shots can deviate while on the ground is 7.4 degrees.
• The angle its shots can deviate while in the air is 12.8 degrees.
• The outer reticle immediately expands after jumping. After 25 frames, the outer reticle will start shrinking, and will finish shrinking after 70 frames.
• The Light Tetra Dualies starts off having a 4% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle.
  • This chance increases by 4% per shot, and maximizes at a 25% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle, meaning that it takes 6 shots to reach minimum accuracy.
• When jumping, the chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle is immediately set to 40%.
• Accuracy starts recovering 6 frames after the player stops shooting. The chance to shoot towards the outer reticle decreases by 0.5% per frame, if the chance is not already at the minimum, meaning that it takes 48 frames to reach maximum accuracy. (78 after shooting while jumping.)
• Shots initially travel straight at a rate of 22.1 units per frame for 4 frames. Shots travel straight for 88.4 distance units.
  • After that, the shot's velocity is set to 22.05 units per frame if it is not already lower than the listed value, and decreases further as it travels.
• Ink droplets occur every 135 units.
• The frequency at which ink drips from a shot occurs at a rate of 1.2 droplets per shot.
• There are a total of 7 different droplet patterns that can be created while firing this weapon.
• Droplets that occur within 11 units of the player have a radius of 16 units, and a width of 10 units.
  • These droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1.2 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.4 if they fell from a height below 30 units.
• Droplets that occur when they travel past 200 units of the player have a radius of 15.5 units.
• All other ink droplets have a radius of 13.4 units.
• Droplets that are far from the player and all other droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.2 if they fell from a height below 30 units.

Rolling

• Each roll consumes 3% of the ink tank capacity.
  • This stat can be changed with Ink Saver (Main).
• The player can roll 4 times without interruption. After this, there is a delay before the player can roll again.
• The Light Tetra Dualies can shoot while rolling.
• After performing a roll, it shoots a bullet every 5 frames.
• After rolling, there is a 70 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
• Damage output does not change after rolling.
• After rolling, shots have a radius of 2.5 units.
• The angle its shots can deviate in the post-roll state is 2.7 degrees.
• After performing a roll, the two individual reticles will merge into a single reticle and chance to shoot towards the inner reticle is immediately set to 100%.
• The full animation of the roll will last 32 frames before player control resumes.
  • Upon regaining control, the player will be forced to maintain their position for 48 frames.
• The shot velocity and shot travel distance remains the same in the post-roll state.

Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction The Light Tetra Dualies have the same specs as the dark ones, but they come in a set geared toward turf inkage! Toss out a Sprinkler to ink the area around your team while you dodge-roll your way to the front lines! Once you're up there, support your allies with the Autobomb Launcher and push the enemy back into their base! This set's just the thing for those who value mobility but also want to cover the world in ink!

“

The Light Tetra Dualies are beauties with the same specs as the Dark Tetra Dualies but also come with Sprinklers, (for automatic turf inkage) and the Autobomb Launcher (which is always nice to push forward with).

Data

• The Light Tetra Dualies is a middleweight weapon.
• The matchmaking range is 14. The game's matchmaking system looks at a team's average matchmaking range value, and matches them against a team with a similar average.

• When firing continuously, it shoots a bullet every 6 frames (10 shots per second).
• When firing from humanoid form, the first shot takes 3 frames to come out. When firing from swim form, the first shot takes 12 frames to come out.
• The interval between firing the weapon and being able to enter swim form or use a sub weapon is 4 frames.
• When firing while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.072 units per frame.
• Each shot has a base damage of 28 and minimum damage of 14.

• The bullet hitbox for collisions with the environment has a radius of 0.2 units.
• Shots initially travel straight at a rate of 2.21 units per frame for 4 frames. Shots travel straight for 8.84 distance units.
  • After that, the shot's velocity is set to 2.205 units per frame if it is not already lower than the listed value, and it loses 36% of its speed every frame (including the first frame after it stops traveling straight). Once the shot velocity decreases below a certain threshold, it will begin to be slowed less and fall faster.
• The effective range is about 12.1 units.
  • This number may vary at different firing angles.

Rolling

• Each roll consumes 3% of the ink tank capacity.
• The player can roll 4 times without interruption. After this, there is a delay before the player can roll again.
• Rolls cover a distance of 3.5 units.
• After performing a roll, it shoots a bullet every 5 frames.
• Damage output does not change after rolling.
• After rolling, shots have a radius of 0.25 units.
• The angle its shots can deviate in the post-roll state is 2.7 degrees.
• After performing a roll, the two individual reticles will merge into a single reticle. The rate of shot deviation remains the same.
• The Light Tetra Dualies can shoot while rolling.
• The rolling state can be broken down as follows:
  • After a 5 frame startup, the roll animation lasts for 16 frames, after which a second roll can be inputted, if available.
  • During a roll, the weapon is forced into its normal firing state, and enters its roll firing state after the roll completes. It then takes 8 frames before a sub or special can be used. After an additional 37 frames, the user will regain their rolls and reenter a normal state if they move or stop firing.
  • In total, this takes 66 frames.
• The shot velocity and shot travel distance remains the same in the post-roll state.
• Rolling creates a pool of ink with a radius of 1.8 units.

Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction The Light Tetra Dualies have the same specs as the dark ones, but they come in a set geared toward turf inkage! So what does that mean? Well, try leaving the inking to the Sprinkler sub while you Dodge Roll straight toward the front lines. Then, when your Zipcaster special is ready, you can fly around enemy turf sowing chaos and confusion! It's all a bit like taping an extra turbo to a vehicle that has five turbos already. Excessive? Perhaps! But if you have the need for speed, give it a shot.

“

From Ballistics, here's a report on the Light Tetra Dualies. "This redesigned Tetra Dualies loadout has a lighter look but the same excellent mobility. Paired with the Sprinkler sub and Zipcaster special, this set can help you cinch the win with four consecutive Dodge Rolls!"
