Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction The Luna Blaster Neo is basically just the Luna Blaster with a sweet sticker slapped on it. No reason to sugarcoat it. But this time around, it comes with Ink Mines, which are great at slowing down enemy movement! The special is the Suction-Bomb Launcher, so get clever with the time delay on the explosion to splat your opponents. Recommended for players that have mastered the art of being clever while looking good!

“

A Luna landing is happening at Ammo Knights today! The Luna Blaster Neo has the same stats as the Luna Blaster, and is great for getting up close and personal. This weapon comes with the Ink Mine sub to protect your surroundings and the Suction-Bomb Launcher to throw a party. A party of... Suction-Bombs. Um. Yes.

• After firing, there is a 55 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
• The damage on direct hit is 125.
• Targets within 1.5 units of the explosion center always take 70 damage. Targets outside of this radius but inside the full blast radius of 3.57 units will take between 70 and 50 damage, depending on how close to the center they are.
• The bullet hitbox for collisions with players has a radius of 0.2 units.
• The bullet hitbox for collisions with the environment has a radius of 0.2 units.
• Shots cannot ever deviate from the inner reticle while on the ground.

  • After that, the shot's velocity is set to 0.8484 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 bullet explodes 11 frames after being fired, covering a total distance of about 7.35 units.
  • This number may vary at different firing angles.

Version history

Version	Adjustments
3.1.0	▲ Increased the radius of the explosion area that deals 70.0 damage by about 50%: 1 unit → 1.5 units. No changes to the radius of the area that deals 50/0 damage.
4.1.0	▲ Reduced the scatter of shots midair by approximately 25%: 8 degrees → 6 degrees. ▲ Also made midair shot-scatter reduction from the Intensify Action gear ability easier to activate even with a smaller number of gear abilities. The midair ink scatter will now be closer to the effect while shooting on land. The effect gained from equipping the maximum number of Intensify Action gear abilities will not change.
7.2.0	▲ Increased the radius of the ink splatter at the point of impact with terrain or when detonated midair by approximately 20%.
8.0.0	▲ Damage dealt to Splash Wall increased by about 10%: 2x → 2.2x.

Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction Some say the Luna Blaster Neo is just a Luna Blaster with a sweet new design. I...may have said that myself. But the loadout as a whole is actually quite different! Of course, the weapon packs that same great punch as the original Luna Blaster, but if you find the range isn't enough, now you can fire off a Fizzy Bomb. And for those times you're politely knocking on the door but can't break through, the Ultra Stamp can help kick that thing down and get the splat party started! This set is cute as all get-out, but it's deadlier than a bathtub full of alligators. If you're into that kind of contrast, give it a try!

“

SRL intern here! Everyone's on vacation, so I'm in charge. So, uh... check out the Luna Blaster Neo! I guess it's the same as the regular Luna Blaster. But it comes with Fizzy Bombs and the Ultra Stamp, according to this note on Ballistics's desk. Should I see what else is here?
